First Bank debunks closure of S’East branches

FIRST Bank has debunked some media reports making the rounds that its branches in the South-eastern part of the country have been closed due to the rising insecurity in the region.

A statement titled ‘Public Announcement’ by the bank’s Group Head, Marketing and Corporate Communications, Folake Ani-Mumuney, today, read:

“This is to inform the public that our South East branches are fully open for business. Please disregard any news making the rounds that is contrary to this.” 

It further noted that its branches in the region and in other parts of the country are “fully open for business.”
