WHERE I DISAGREE WITH SOWORE
I have been reading the back and forth between UBA and Omoyele Sowore over his account with the bank.
While the coming protest may be desirable, I think the use of a personal account (Take It Back, Used For His Presidential Campaign) to request for public funding for a protest against the government (if it is true) will pitch the government against the bank.
UBA is a corporate entity and should not be seen to be antagonist to a government in whatever form.
And why use UBA in the first place out of all the banks in Nigeria?
I learnt the account was opened when Sowore wanted to run for Presidency, converting same account for crowd funding for a protest to me is against banking ethics.
He should have opened a GoFundMe where he doesn’t need any banking regulation for such.
As I said I am not against the protest, but our public entities like banks should not be put at risk because of it.
In other major countries, government close accounts used to even fund terrorism, etc.
