Nigerians Call out Yemisi Edun led FCMB as bank’s services shut down for…

Image
First City Monument Bank led by Yemisi Edun is in the bad books of customers who are frustrated over its epileptic services, ENigeria reports. “This is not the first time FCMB users would complain of service downtime but the bank has refused to upgrade and it’s really sad”, said Osas a customer of the bank. FCMB is the brainchild of Otunba Subomi Balogun who is regarded as the doyen of Nigerian banking industry, however it appears that the bank has little or nothing to show for it. 90 year-old Subomi Balogun had groomed his son Ladi Balogun, highly controversial figure to run the affairs of the bank which is his legacy, but his time as the Managing Director of FCMB was one bedeviled with endless controversies. Ladi was in the middle of too many adultery-related scandals that Murphy Ozohue, husband of socialite, Uju Murphy allegedly accused him of ‘having an affair with his wife’. It is not clear if the Uju Murphy scandal actually led to Ladi’s marital crisis, but it is a known fact

1. Kuje Prison Attack: Of Sitting Ducks And Lame-duck Government An earlier call by the Islamic State on its members and affiliates to work towards freeing their members in government prisons should have been enough signal for a sensible country buffeted by ISWAP to fortify its prisons or at least move terrorists being held in a medium-security prison to a secure facility. Not Nigeria and the lethargic government she has been yoked with. Aside from this warning in the public domain, Nigeria’s intelligence agencies maintained by the taxpayers should have more actionable intel on what terrorists in Nigeria were up to. Why their plot to carry out a brazen attack on a supposed fortified facility in the Federal Capital Territory was not averted is a tar that can never be washed off the current administration.   Assuming that the intelligence agencies failed to live up to their raison d’etre, how about the intelligence shared by Tukur Mamu, the media aide to Sheikh Ahmad Gumi, re
