Due to the scarcity of the new naira note Zenith Bank has shut down some branches across the country while their customers are left stranded
According to Sahara Reporters, customers of the bank also lamented of poor online services experienced as the scarcity of the newly redesigned notes worsens.
“Due to insecurity reasons, we did not open today,” a bank official told Sahara Reporters.
Since the advent of smartphones, a lot of Nigerians have made mobile app banking their preferred online digital platform for making financial transactions. Some Zenith bank customers have taken to Twitter to call out the financial institution.
On Monday, a video appeared online, purportedly of staff members of Zenith Bank scaling the fence to escape from the bank premises following pressure from customers.
The members of staff had hurdled close to a ladder that had been placed against the wall.
In the video, men and women are seen climbing the ladder as they scaled the fence in their corporate outfits.
One of the bankers, believed to be a senior official, could be seen making inquiries on the phone about the location of security personnel they had called to protect them from the mob attack.
