PRESS RELEASE: Why OPay is turning savings into a national movement

Before sunrise, tens of millions of Nigerians are already making financial decisions that will shape the rest of their day. A trader prepares for the business day, a ride-hailing driver calculates fuel expenses, and a young professional checks his account balance before leaving for work.

Different lives, different ambitions, but one shared goal: building financial security in uncertain times. That challenge has become more pressing as rising living costs continue to reshape household spending and saving habits. While many Nigerians want to save more, staying consistent remains difficult.

On June 15, the CBN directed all financial institutions facilitating payments within Nigeria to ensure that data generated in Nigeria is stored and managed locally, in line with applicable data protection laws.
