The Central Bank of Nigeria, CBN, has taken its financial literacy campaign programme to schools as part of activities to mark the 2015 Global Money Week.
Speaking on this development, the Deputy Governor of the Corporate Services Department, Adebayo Adelabu, explained that the campaign was aimed at educating children on how to inculcate the culture of savings and investment.
At the Government Secondary School, Wuse, Abuja, Adelabu urged the students to cultivate the habit of savings so that their deposits can yield interests while telling them the benefits of operating a bank account.
Meanwhile the CBN Governor, Godwin Emefiele advised parents to encourage their children to save and start planning their future at an early age.
The global money week is an initiative of Child and Youth Finance International and is targeted towards the promotion of economic citizenship among children and youths.
