Top 10 Online Savings And Investment Platform In Nigeria

The need for saving and investing cannot be overemphasized especially in a country like Nigeria where you get to work your way out for all you need. Commercial banks used to be the major saving platforms among Nigerians, but that has changed. Most people no longer feel comfortable saving their money in banks because of the unnecessary charges that are incurred on it. Nigerian banks have failed woefully in the area of interests on people’s savings, hence, the need to move to online savings.
