CBN plans to deploy graphic ATMs for physically challenged persons



The Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) on Thursday, in Akure, announced plans to accommodate physically challenged persons in its cashless policy drive.

Ikechukwu Nwaoha, the bank’s Deputy Director, Consumer and Financial Protection Department, said this in a paper he delivered at the 17th seminar for finance correspondents and business editors. The paper was entitled, “Issues, challenges and consumer protection in a cashless economy”.

According to him, the CBN will soon introduce graphics moderated automated teller machines (ATMs) to facilitate the participation of physically challenged persons in e-transaction.

Nwaoha said that the illiterate populace would also be able to use the facility which, he added, would take care of all the concerns they had raised on the cashless policy at various seminars.
