He stated further that the proposed radio programme will be owned by all the banks, thereby using it as a voice for continuous projection of their interests.

While urging all the banks on the need to continue to work together and tackle issues as a team, Okpara said: “There is should be no demarketing, because what affects one, affects all.”

He implored ACAMB to continue to give their support to the Institute as well as the banking sector in general.

Responding on behalf of the excos, the ACAMB President, Mr. Rasheed Bolarinwa, affirmed the association’s strong commitment to the advancement of the institute and the banking sector at large.
