On January 1, 2012, Nigeria embark on a new policy with intention of reducing cash payments inorder to encourage electronic payments as it is the practice in some countries. Lagos state was taken for a pilot test and it is expected that by the end of this month, March 31, 2012, the whole country would become a cashless society.
Many questions ranging from security, awareness, computer knowledge and present state of infrastructure like network and functional channels linger in the minds of the people towards the exercise... Can we now say that Nigeria, on part of users, are ready for this cashless programme?
