Uzoma Nwagba has re-assured Nigerians of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s commitment to using the scheme to provide access to life enhancing goods and services for the citizenry.
Engr. Nwagba gave the assurance recently on a working invitation by the Head of Civil Service of the Federation, Madam Didi Esther Walson-Jack, recognizing the impact of CREDICORP in providing credit for life-enhancing goods and services to civil servants.
During the visit, Nwagba briefed the host about activities of CREDICORP and also introduced the Corporation’s CALM Fund specifically targeting access to CNG conversions and Solar panels. He emphasised that civil servants are beneficiaries.
The CREDICORP chieftain expressed hope for his organization’s continued and deeper engagements with the civil service in its efforts to ensure that no fewer than 400,000 civil servants have access to credit by second quarter of 2025, even as the access to the general public has also commenced in earnest.
