Bank branch ‘shut down over juju scare’ in Akwa Ibom (PICTURED)


According to reports, a banking hall in Akwa Ibom
is expected to remain shut after the workers were
threatened with black magic aka ‘juju’.
The Plaza branch of the First Bank of Nigeria is
under what was described as a “traditional
injunction” by unknown aggrieved persons who
dumped the ‘juju’ at the entrance to the bank.
The trouble is said to have been caused as a result
of a disagreement between the bank’s management
and the procurers of the juju.
According to Laila’s blog :
The building which is reportedly owned by Joesco
Group of Companies is located at the heart of the
town and is reportedly regarded as the most
patronized bank in Akwa Ibom State.
Whoever gave the traditional injunction is still
unknown but there are insinuations that maybe
there’s a problem between the owners of the
property and the bank or an aggrieved customer/
staff of the bank versus the branch’s management.
As a result of the injunction, customers reportedly
were seen in large numbers rushing in use the ATM
to avoid being financially stranded as the week
begins.
For now, no one knows whether the bank will be
open for business tomorrow following the ugly
incident.
