“The essence is just to inculcate in them the act of saving. They can save from whatever little they have,” she stated.

Asked if her department would push for the addition of financial literacy in school curriculum, Nwubilo said “yes, that is in the pipeline because there is need for us to ensure continuity. So, we are going to have financial education in school curriculums very soon. 

Nwubilo urged Nigerians to plan their money through savings, budgeting and investment.  

She said the event was also organised to teach children on needs and wants to have a secured and stable financial future. 

“You will have to separate your needs from your wants so that you don’t spend all your money on wants and not have savings to invest,” Nwubilo said.

On responsiveness of financial institutions in encouraging people into the financial system, Nwubilo said the apex bank has encouraged the financial institutions across the nation to as much as possible, drive down financial literacy with a focus on achieving financial inclusion. 

The aim is to get them to understand how to develop saving culture and products that fit their category.
