I know BVN is attached to biometric and personal data but it can still be spoof

Once the Humans in charge have sinister motives, they surely will find a loophole.
When the issue of BVN first got implemented in 2015 I was hopeful that at least we would be able to curb Fraud Money.

But unfortunately, 6 years plus down the line, it's just another failed implementation because the humans who are suppose to be the "quality control" are only there for their selfish gain just like the Policeman who is only on the road to collect money from commuters and offenders and not to protect lives and properties nor enforce the law.

Until we prioritize communal gain over individual gain and have a True change of mindset/perception, all of these will only be "Noise".

NB: The rate at which we are going only a Divine intervention can save Us from Self-destruction.

What constitutes BVN violation? If this is aimed at crypto, you'll have to bar all of us. Let us then know that crypto is our legal tender.

CBN is yet to learn that over regulation is a bad thing.

Instead of looking at ways to bank the unbaked population in Nigeria especially those in rural areas CBN is trying to keep people it terms "violators" out of the banking system all together. This is like when a referee leaves the players and starts issuing cards to the spectators or camera men.

You should keep those people in the system so you can continue to monitor them if that's so important to you rather than kicking them out altogether moreover I think CBN should leave bank customers and face banks. I don't see how those very few "bvn violators" crypto currency transactions is doing any harm to the entire economy of Nigeria that'll warrant CBN to spend all this time and money looking into it.

We as a nation have nothing good at all to invite foreign and even local investors or to keep local investors.

And yet we are placing policies and regulations with deadlines and measures as if we are the most attractive business or banking destination in the world.

Small, poor, third world countries who have nothing to offer LIKE NIGERIA
Usually offer loose laws, lapse systems to attract investors I'll give examples

Panama and Liberia : these 2 countries are responsible for almost 30 - 40% of ALL Ship registrations in the world why? How?

Registering ships anywhere else is costly and difficult and has too many red tapes and bureaucracy so these countries said how do we make money from it? They made ship ownership and registration so easy in their countries that everyone from all over the world prefers to register their ships in Panama and Liberia.

In banking the same thing certain countries allow loose regulations thereby becoming Tax havens and making money from it.

In citizenship: countries like Guyana, st Kitts and Nevis, the Bahamas, even Portugal has joined them now, they will give you citizenship if you pay them a lump sum of money over $160,000 or "donate" that amount to their country or invest in their country investments worth over $500,000 or thereabout depending on the country.

Asylum: even supposedly first world countries like France will grant you asylum if you agree to forfeit half of your loot to the french government, that's why it seems many African leaders run to France for asylum especially those from french speaking countries, the most expensive car ever auctioned was auctioned before 2017 or so was by the french government (now I think it is the second most expensive car ever auctioned) it was a car belonging to the Vice president of Equatorial Guinea one Nguema the son of the president Theodore Obiang Nguema's. He agreed to forfeit the custom made high end luxury car to the french government along with a castle in France and 2 Lamborghini's I think and the case against him was dropped sharperly as my PH people will say.

What am I driving at? We Nigerians have refused to have sense because we think we have oil, don't worry the oil will dry or the world will move away from oil, whichever happens first. Then maybe government will start having sense.
Government's Number 1 job is to take care of WE THE PEOPLE, its citizens. It's number 1 job is not to regulate us. To government making money to take care of its people should be priority.
Regulation will come when we done chop, when people are taking advantage of the system to the detriment of Nigerians, then government can step in to protect Nigerians.

Government should not regulate just simply because it feels like, or because other countries are doing it.
I pray one day people with administrative ability, with knowledge of law and understanding of the inner workings of government across the world people like me will have the opportunity to hold elected office. So our people will actually know the true meaning of government.

The people are not supposed to fear government or their agencies like police or army, they are not supposed to run when they see them they should be happy to see them, the people and businesses shouldn't fear CBN they should be happy knowing that CBN is there to save them from being taken advantage of by private banks.
