Also speaking at the event, the Minister of Communications and Digital Economy, Dr Isa Pantami, who was represented by the Director-General, National Information Technology Development Agency, Mr Kashifu Abdullahi, described the launch of Hope PSBank as  a game-changer in the banking sector that would not only reduce operational cost drastically, but also bring about transformation in the banking system.

The Chairman, Hope PSBank, Alhaji Shehu Abubakar, described the launch of the PSB as one that would not only revolutionalise the banking sector, but help a great deal in shaping and advancing the future for financial services generally in Nigeria.

Abubakar noted that it was heartwarming that a new bank was stepping into the fold to give banking access to millions of Nigerians including those that were unbanked.

He explained that the setting up of the bank was largely driven by the need to ensure that a vast majority of Nigerians had access to financial services.
