According to the lending bank, the funds will be spent on immunization, the expansion of the digital economy, job creation, and public and private sector governance.
“These projects focus squarely on delivering better services for Nigerians: ensuring that children are immunized and sleep under mosquito nets, building better roads especially in rural areas, and providing Nigeria’s poorest citizens with a unique identification that will make social safety nets and services more effective,” Shubham Chaudhuri, World Bank Country Director for Nigeria, said.
“The World Bank is carefully targeting its support on high impact projects as the country works to tackle corruption and lift 100 million of its people out of poverty,” he added.
