FirstBank has debunked the news reports online that one of its branches, as well as its head office, have been sealed.
In a statement made available to News Band, FirstBank informed that the referenced story is a misrepresentation of the facts and misleading.
“Neither our branch nor head office was sealed.
”On the 4th of August, 2022, there was an unlawful enforcement at the Bank’s Coomassie House Branch of a garnishee order issued by a Federal High Court sitting in Abuja which order the Bank is still challenging in court.
“While the Bank has taken appropriate legal steps to deal with the situation, we wish to reassure our customers of unhindered banking services and unique customer experience in all our branches and through our numerous alternative channels,” the bank clarified.
