Nigeria is believed to host the largest population of the poor in the West Africa Sub region. To this end federal, state and local governments have developed poverty eradication policies yet not much has been achieved. Among them is the establishment of microfinance institutions expected to provide credits for small and medium scale enterprises that could not fulfill the requirement of commercial banks for facilities. Intervention of microfinance banks in poverty alleviation in Nigeria needs to be appraised.
