That's actually not true.
Most bank accounts were abandoned some actually with a lot of cash lodged in them because of TSA enforcement. Many people would rather abandon the account than to go through the rigors of harmonizing the accounts to reflect same name, DOB, and other particulars. Especially those used for shady purposes.
Personally I abandoned my 3 other accounts and just relied on one, because a single bank account number is actually enough for a an average, honest Nigerian.

May God keep my parent alive for me so I can eat enough of their food.

S you attributing it to raise in poverty is actually incorrect. Because majority of the people in poverty in Nigeria don't even have account number to begin with.

GoodGovernance:
Data from the Nigeria Interbank Settlement System, NIBSS, indicated that
the number of dormant/inactive bank accounts rose by 28 percent to 46.7 million in 2018 from 36.7 million in 2017.

Additional 10 million bank accounts were abandoned and left dormant, in 2018, plausibly due to economic hardship caused by sluggish economic growth, rising job losses and reduction in purchasing power occasioned, by double digit inflation.

According to the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) guidelines on dormant accounts, “an account shall become inactive if there has been no customer or depositor-initiated transaction for a period of six months after the last customer or depositor initiated transaction.”

Bank customers abandon their accounts for other various reasons such as:

1.Dissatisfaction/Poor service from affected banks
2.Relocation
3.Cashflow challenges
4.Temporary usage-some contractors are forced to open accounts by contractees, in banks which they hitherto were not patronizing. And once they receive one-off payment, the accounts are consequentially abandoned.

Read in between the lines, it was as a result of the introduction of BVN. Most abandoned bank accounts are fraudulent bank accounts.
