There is more detail on the site, but as usual, one would need some long leg and greasing to actually get the loan.

However, lending rate appears to be market+6% (market is 14% according to CBN), so this is a basically 20% loan. NO country developed its industry with 20% loans, so for FG to think this is helping anybody shows the policy makers are out to lunch.

Far better to seriously save salary for 1 or 2 years (while living with parents and no flexing or spending money), than to wait for this nonsense because at the end of the day, profit margin is under 20% so one will end up working so hard just to pay the loan back, without actually gaining anything.

To make it worse, the money is disbursed to the suppliers for your business - not given to you in cash. If you can establish a good relationship with suppliers, they may be willing to extend credit for 30-90 days with much less interest.
