NnamdiN: lol not really backwardness, it's a way of settling disputes by the ibibios. It's a kinda summon. When an injunction like this is placed, first bank(in this case) is expected to appear before some traditional judges alongside whoever summoned them. (according to gst 112 Nigerian people's and culture grin)


Simply put, they want the issue resolved traditionally

Chartey:
Maybe because the hall isn't big enough and the tellers are few. Is the area a business district at all? Na wetin me i wan know. Or d juju pursue people wey dey pass for road?
about 8 tellers for small deposits and 3 for bulk. You need to see for yourself how busy this branch usually is. Juju is not only when a red clay pot is painted with native chalk with eggs surrounding it. grin this injunction does not affect customers or passers by, I will try and get pics of people using the ATMs just beside the plantain stems. The issue is strictly between the bank and whoever placed them.


According to wikipedia "Juju or Ju-Ju is a word of either West African or
French origin[1] used previously by Europeans to
describe traditional West African religions.[2]
Today it refers specifically to objects, such as
amulets, and spells used superstitiously as part of
witchcraft in West Africa.[3]
History
Juju is sometimes used to enforce a contract or
ensure compliance".

Enoquin: There is more than one first bank in uyo, perhaps you should have mentioned the specific branch especially as not all Nairalanders stay in Uyo.

I'm sure it's the one at Plaza. Haven't passed there today though

NnamdiN: my dear it's stated there that it's the plaza branch and as a result, other branches are currently congested.

Oga no vex. I didn't see Plaza mentioned, only 'heart of town' at least on the pasted article. Perhaps it's mentioned in the blog.

Kindly point out where 'Plaza' was written in the article. I specifically said it was for the benefit of those who didn't know Plaza was Uyo's heart of town.

A negative blanket statement that is so not fair to most of the good people of the state. I wonder how minds like yours work because a certain set of people do not live their lives the way you/your people live yours or want them to.

I guess states where people are lynched in public are 'forward' states?

Nfana Ibagha, the 'backward' state will maintain its hospitality and keep moving forward slowly but surely.

NnamdiN: Bank may not open tomorrow...
Customers may be frustrated as First Bank Nigeria
PLC, Uyo may not open tomorrow following a
traditional injunction placed at the entrance of the
banking hall by unknown persons.
The building which is allegedly owned by Joesco
Group of Companies, Uyo, is located at the heart of
the town and is widely regarded as the most
patronized and busy bank in Akwa Ibom State.
The source of the traditional injunction is yet to be
known as at press time, with many believing that a
fued may have ensured between the owners of the
Property and the bank or aggrieved customer or staff
of the bank who may not be happy with the
management of the institution.
After the injunction placement, customers were seen
in large numbers rushing in to cash on the ATM
machine as a precautionary measure to avoid being
financially incapacitated as the week begins, while
some are uncertain whether or not the bank will open
tomorrow for business following the ugly incidence.
