The rate of stealing at various bank in Nigeria is overwhelming. Some of these young folks are seeking employment at the bank in order to steal people’s money or defraud bank. If you see some young folks trying to secure a job at the bank at all cost, their intention is how to steal. I have some friends in those old good day who have their mind focused on banking job. My question for them was why bank? Why do you derive pleasure in managing people’s money if there is no motive behind it?. After knowing in and out of the system, they cunningly enter people’s accounts by draining their life saving. Everybody is affected by the economic situation of this country but stealing people’s money is not justifiable. Some people are banking with you because of the trust they have in your bank.
Na wa o, banks are no longer meant for safe keeping again. But who is to blame, our economic situation in d country or the people itself.
Instead of using d talent they are given to improve themselves all they think about is robbery.
i must say am surprised this happened at First-bank
I don’t know why people are so greedy. I pray the truth will be out and if he’s guilty, then he must face the wrath of the law
Whom.do we now trust?
