THE FORGOTTEN UNBANKED AND SEMI BANKED
Confusion has even escalated , all the terminology is sending all the Mobile Money Operators in Nigeria into a dizzy spell…Initially they wanted Mobile Money Transfer…so Central Bank issued them with Mobile Money Transfer licences. Then the strategy went haywire… the market got flooded with all kinds of terminology..
Now I hear Mobile banking, is going to drive mobile money transfer… eish am tired… how is the banked person going to build the unbanked?
If you have been in Nigeria long enough you will know that those who have dont care about the have nots…
have you not seen big jeeps being followed by chase cars? have you not seen Nigerians scavenging and begging for food? Dont you know that Nigeria is a big oil exporter?
How then is a banked person going to drive mobile money?? its like saying the House help dictates the shopping budget!
Its twisted…. They are my forgotten people.. hopefully God will remember them in this split world of the haves and the havenots…
We shall bank them eventually…even if it takes 10 yrs.
