Every bank are not to be trusted, they are still manage by humans, who may likely be controlled by greed and then can do anything to get their hands on customers funds.
Aside this reason, they could leak customers data ine way or the other for scammers and theft to get access or contact to them. This was among the main reason I wasn't surprised at the Gt bank data breach. I remembered when I tried to get a debit card there and after the registration, got calls from scammers about it.
I am surprised that someone can hold ₦500 million in fixed deposit but he is not a young person but an elderly man which we should expect something like that.
An elderly man with so much faith in the judiciary system, I felt like crying for him. I just hope it turns out good for him. March 26 is tomorrow, and Firstbank hasn't made any statement via any platform, finger crossed.
I don't think he will lose the case while going through the comments, I could see others speaking of him being more eloquent than his lawyer, I think he already has all proof of winning the case and the fact that this is now in the public, firstbank would be careful of their move after all they won't want to be tainted black by all but this would definitely make other become cautious of their funds in first bank and any other bank.
I think one thing he mat suffer behind the scene would be potential death threat but the fact that he is a businessman and having such amount in a bank on fixed deposits shows that this may not be his first time dealing with issues that may have potential death threats or law cases.
