erico2k2:Most LGA either don't have enough banks, or the nearest branch with an ATM is miles away. Banks don't like opening up in villages. As a Corper, I had to travel a distance from my village to collect alawee. ATM bank branch was like one hour away. Govt could get banks to expand services to the rural areas, which is what microfinance banks were supposed to be for |
erico2k2:Most rural areas in Nigeria don't have banks at all. Banks prefer to open branch in city, rather than in villages. Hence the cash payment. I work in a city. I was paid just now. There are five ATM in my neighborhood. A worker in the rural area may have to travel a distance before he sees bank, talk less ATM. |
Donald95:Most banks don't operate in the rural areas. In most rural LGA, you might be lucky to find one bank branch there. The LG where I served , there were two banks, both of them in the lg headquarters. One of them was First Bank. Some LG don't have a bank at all. |
genxris:I'm opposed to state police,but bringing in state police does not mean that a tyrannical governor has a new toy to play with. Nigeria needs strong and independent institutions. |
biggy26:Yes, and Abuja city was the better for it. Nigeria needs cleaning up. We are too used to doing the wrong things |
