Fambegbe Olakunle Famola, a rising political analyst and youth advocate from Ondo State, recently appeared on Channels Television, where he shared expert perspectives on the implications of U.S. monetary policy and the potential of blockchain technology within Nigeria’s financial sector.
During the televised interview, Famola analyzed the U.S. Federal Reserve’s latest decision to maintain interest rates, linking the move to its ripple effects on Nigeria’s economy — particularly the naira’s stability, the country’s attractiveness to foreign investors, and domestic access to capital.
“Nigeria must do more than just respond to U.S. policy moves. We need to design resilient, independent financial systems built on local productivity, innovation, and policy consistency,” he emphasized.
He also underscored the critical role blockchain could play in overhauling the nation’s banking and financial systems. Famola argued that integrating blockchain into mainstream finance could help address long-standing issues such as fraud, inefficiency in cross-border transactions, and limited access to banking in rural areas.
“Blockchain is no longer a futuristic luxury. It’s a foundational technology that can rebuild trust in our financial system especially among the youth and the unbanked population,” he said.
His appearance on Channels Television has further solidified his growing influence as a forward-thinking voice championing digital innovation, inclusive governance, and youth empowerment both within Ondo State and at the national level.
