First Bank of Nigeria Limited has debunked reports that its branches in the South-East part of the country have been closed due to the rising insecurity in the region.
“This is to inform the public that our South-East branches are fully open for business. Please disregard any news making the rounds that is contrary to this. Thank you,” Bank’s Group Head, Marketing and Corporate Communications, Folake Ani-Mumuney, said in a statement on Wednesday.

The bank noted that its branches in the South-East and in other parts of the country were “fully open for business.”
