    Customer drags UBA to court over alleged fraudulent deductions

    Published on

     

    Mr Chinedu Nwoke, a customer of the United Bank of Africa (UBA) has dragged the bank to the Federal High Court, Yenagoa over unauthorised debit on his account purportedly for a loan the customer did not take.

    Nwoke is seeking redress over a purported COVID-19 loan valued at N700,000.00 from NISRAL Micro Finance Bank which he knows nothing about using his Bank Verification Number (BVN).

    Nwoke in his prayers before the court, lamented that the fraud allegedly perpetrated by the commercial bank has led to the blacklisting of his bank accounts and BVN from the banking system, depriving him of banking services.

    When the case came up for mention on Friday, Mr Chinedu Iheanacho, Counsel to the plaintiff sought an adjournment to enable the court commence hearing on the matter.

    The court presided over by Justice Ayo Emmanuel therefore adjourned the case to March 31.

    The defendants, UBA and NISRAL Micro Finance Bank were represented by Mr Precious John who represented the Lead Defence Counsel, Mr Evaristus Ozioko.
