The Executive Secretary, Nigerian Christian Pilgrim Commission (NCPC), Rev. Yakubu Pam says the Cashless Policy will put Nigeria in the comity of developed nations.
Pam in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Abuja , said that “Nigeria remains the greatest black nation in the world”.
He said should Nigeria effectively implement the cashless policy, conquer corruption and insecurity, this would give hope to many other African countries looking up to Nigeria to lead the continent into greatness.
“The present administration wants us to begin to go into the cashless generation so we can catch up with other developed countries.
“Nigeria remains the greatest black nation in the world and I believe that others who are learning from us will be proud to see us overcome some of these challenges.
“This will give them hope that this black nation has come of age and does not need assistance from anywhere to survive; this is what we are looking for; for Nigeria to be the first to break some of these challenges towards a victorious life,’’ he said.
NCPC helmsman urged the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) to continue to monitor the process as few people could be manipulating the process for personal gains.
He also urged all Nigerians to support the initiative, be patient with the process to attain a Nigeria “we all desire and will be proud of”.
