eNaira Wallet application has been removed from Google Play Store barely 36 hours after it was published by the Central Bank of Nigeria.
The central bank digital currency, called eNaira, was launched on Monday by President Muhammadu Buhari.
To access the eNaira, users have to download the ‘speed wallet’, which allows users to make quick and easy transactions . It is the digital storage that holds the eNaira and is held and managed on a distributed ledger.
Users had earlier rated the application low and made several complaints on Play Store.
According to Punch Newspapers, as at 05pm on Wednesday the eNaira speed wallet had been unpublished.
But the eNaira Merchant App, which has considerable positive comments is available for download.
Twenty-four hours after the eNaira App was published over 100, 000 users had downloaded it.
Users who had downloaded the application said that they have not been asked to update the 8.76 megabytes application.
The eNaira speed wallet had a rating of 2.0 of the obtainable 5.0 from 2,150 reviews on Playstore as of 5:45pm on Monday as users complained of glitches.
It is unclear if the App was unpublished by Google because of the poor rating and negative reviews or the offeror – CBN.
