The Managing Director of Digitvant Microfinance Bank (Dogitvant MFB), Mrs. Florence Ogunyamoju, has said that the company is creating pathways for prosperity.
According to her, the bank is taking care of the needs of the informal sector players, adding that this was enshrined in its mission.
Ogunyamoju noted this during a press briefing in Lagos.
She reaffirmed Digitvant’s commitment to building a people-first, technology-enabled financial institution designed to serve the needs of everyday Nigerians—particularly those in the informal and underserved sectors.
“We are not just providing financial services; we are building dignity, unlocking
potential, and creating pathways for prosperity,” she said. “Inclusive finance is not a
privilege as it has been made to seem, It is a right.”
In his address, the Chairman of the Board, Mr. Kayode John Oluwagboye, emphasised the strategic vision of Digitvant MFB as a catalyst for grassroots economic growth.
He reiterated the Board’s unwavering commitment to good governance, innovation, and long-term impact. “We are building a bank that understands and responds to the needs of real people,” he said. “Our strategy is
anchored on sustainable practices, strong partnerships, and an inclusive model that
prioritises dignity as much as profitability.”
