  The introduction of a CBDC in Nigeria has the potential to greatly impact financial inclusion in the country. By providing a digital currency that is easily accessible to all individuals, including those who are unbanked or underbanked, it can help bridge the financial divide. With a CBDC, people can have access to basic financial services such as payments, savings, and loans without the need for a traditional bank account. This can empower individuals and businesses, especially in rural areas, to participate in the formal economy and have better control over their finances.

  Introducing a CBDC in Nigeria can also enhance financial transparency and reduce corruption. With digital transactions recorded on a blockchain, it becomes more difficult for illicit activities to go unnoticed. This can improve trust in the financial system and attract more people to participate in formal financial services. Additionally, a CBDC can enable faster and cheaper cross-border transactions, which can benefit individuals and businesses engaged in international trade.
