Our growth is a testament to whatโ€™s possible when partnerships go beyond investmentโ€”it’s about shared prosperity and innovation,โ€ Eniolorunda said.

During the visit, Moniepoint discussed plans for new solutions to help Nigerians in the UK easily send money home.

These solutions will leverage Moniepoint’s reputation for trust, speed, and transparency to solve payment issues.

Eniolorunda noted this is part of a larger effort to improve economic and trade relations between Nigeria and the UK..
