E-naira and It’s Implications on the Fintech Sector   CHAPTER ONE INTRODUCTION 1.1       Background of the study Financial service delivery is progressively merging with developing technologies in Nigeria, resulting in the already well-known 'financial technology.'

Examining E-naira Awareness in Nigeria's Rural Demographics.   CHAPTER ONE: INTRODUCTION 1.1 Background of the study “Rural” means open land and tiny settlements in general, although "rural areas" are typically taken for granted or left undefined in policy-oriented and scientific literature, in a process of description that is sometimes laden with complications (IFAD, 2010).
