Meanwhile BDC operators are calling on the Federal Government to as a matter of urgency approve the Renminbi (Yuan) disbursements to its members to deepen the China-Nigeria currency Swap deal entered into by both countries.
According to the BDC operators the approval would enable BDCs sell Personal and Business Travelling Allowances to its customers in Yuan.
