2015-06-30 | BPS/DIR/GEN/CIR/02/008The Central Bank of Nigeria has extended the deadline for its Bank Verification Number (BVN) project, which requires all Deposit Money Bank customers to have a BVN attached to their accounts. The new deadline is October 31, 2015, to accommodate the large number of customers who crowded banking halls to meet the initial deadline and to give Nigerian diaspora customers more time to enroll.
