President Tinubu Approves Takeoff Of Consumer Credit Scheme by UncleAyo: 4:00pm On Apr 24
A welcome development

President Bola Tinubu has approved the takeoff of the first phase of the Consumer Credit Scheme.

Consumer credit serves as the lifeblood of modern economies, enabling citizens to enhance their quality of life by accessing goods and services upfront, paying responsibly over time. It facilitates crucial purchases, such as homes, vehicles, education, and healthcare, essential for ongoing stability to pursue their aspirations.

Through responsible repayment, individuals build credit histories, unlocking more opportunities for a better life. Additionally, the increased demand for goods and services stimulates local industry and job creation.

The President believes every hardworking Nigerian should have access to social mobility, with consumer credit playing a pivotal role in achieving this vision.

The Nigerian Consumer Credit Corporation (CREDICORP) achieves its mandate through the following:

(1) Strengthening Nigeria’s credit reporting systems, ensuring every economically active citizen has a dependable credit score. This score becomes personal equity they build, facilitating access to consumer credit.

(2) Offering credit guarantees and wholesale lending to financial institutions dedicated to broadening consumer credit access today.

(3) Promoting responsible consumer credit as a pathway to an improved quality of life, fostering a cultural shift towards growth and financial responsibility.

In line with the President’s directive to expand consumer credit access to Nigerians, the Nigerian Consumer Credit Corporation (CREDICORP) has launched a portal for Nigerians to express interest in receiving consumer credit.


This initiative, in collaboration with financial institutions and cooperatives nationwide, aims to broaden consumer credit availability.

Working Nigerians interested in receiving consumer credit can visit www.credicorp.ng to express interest. The deadline is May 15, 2024.


The scheme will be rolled out in phases, starting with members of the civil service and cascading to members of the public.

This is part of his political manifesto and he is following through on his promise to serve excellently, build new and innovative public service products that have the capacity to reach more Nigerians and improve their wellbeing.

This is just one of those great promises kept, more still on the way.

Illiteracy is really bad.

The common man uses lapo and other microfinance Bank credit products, so it will benefit them.

There are 916 microfinance Banks in Nigeria with multiple branches, if we also count the big banks with their branches, then only someone not intelligent would think this would not benefit the common man on the street.

A country without proper data of her citizens? Let’s see how it goes

Winning123:


What is BVN and NIN then. Think before you comment
Think before you quote me.

Didn’t you see the report where people have been reported with two(some multiple) NINs? Go & look for that news

Do the unbanked in the society have BVN?

Most people with BVN are experiencing issues with mixed up data.

Even the network providers & banks are still asking their subscribers/customers to come & update their numbers/accounts with information that was already given to them years ago.

Is that what you call proper data in a country? Next time think before you quote any comment.
