What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

An internal review by the Central Bank of Nigeria showed its intervention portfolio exceeded N10 trillion, yet approximately N4.7 trillion of this fund remains unrecovered. The Bank of Agriculture has launched a nationwide initiative to recover over N20 billion in non-performing loans as part of its recapitalization efforts. Reports also indicate that some loans intended for smallholder farmers are being diverted by politically connected individuals using fraudulent registrations.

The unrecovered funds represent a significant financial liability for the Central Bank of Nigeria. The diversion of agricultural subsidies and loans affects the intended flow of capital to genuine smallholder farmers.
