Heritage Bank Debunks Involvement of Staff in N150m Fraud

The management of Heritage Bank has debunked the rumours making rounds that three staff of the bank were involved in an N150 million fraud.

The bank on Tuesday, July 11, issued a press statement to categorically refute the report published on Per Second News.

Below is the statement:



HERITAGE BANK STAFF NOT INVOLVED IN N150M FRAUD

Our attention has been brought to the report published by an online news blog, Per Second News, in which it was purported that ‘three of Heritage Bank staff’ were involved in an N150million fraud in collusion with two of MTN’s staff.

Heritage Bank Plc wants to categorically state that the following persons said to have been the perpetrators of the fraud; Oyelade Shola-Isaac, 32, Osuolale Hammid, 40, and Akeem Adesina, 33 were never staff of Heritage Bank Plc at any time.

We wish to make it clear that Heritage Bank disproves the antics of such blogger, who seems determined to discredit the institution, even to the extent of risking being seen clearly as careless and unprofessional. We consider it our duty to continue to provide our stakeholders with accurate information where it concerns us, as your confidence and support is of utmost importance to us.

Signed:
Management
