“Senator Andy Uba has been owing the bank for a couple of years now and we are here for a very peaceful meeting with him to ask him to kindly repay those loans because those are depositors funds.
“Those monies if they are not repaid will throw the number of people you see here with their families out of work and we know the situation of things in the economy and if these number of people are thrown out of job, we know what it means.
“So, we are here to appeal to him to kindly pay up this money so that this people will not lose their job and of course the bank becomes a going concern.
