More loan goes to those who have more money. I've been trying to explain this to some people on this forum, but they couldn't just get it that the IMF and world bank literally lobby countries for more loan, just like first bank plan to do now.

In case you're one of such people, just read the new first bank policy direction. The IMF and world bank are banks and makes profit exploiting countries by giving them loan. The only difference is first bank wants to partner with oil companies while IMF and world bank look for stupid countries to partner.

Loans remains the biggest profit strategy for banks. Bank's cannot make profit, unless they give really huge performing loans to companies.

This's why the IMF and world bank are always hounding third world countries for loan!!.

I wish someone understand this and be wise.

I understand you very well sire.

A source within the bank confirmed to Vanguard saying, “It is not that we plan to sack 1000 staff at a go. It was part of the measures taken last year to enhance the profitability of the bank. So the pruning will be gradual and it started last year”.
Planing not to sack at a go or not, sack na sack. But 1000? That's too much abeg.

Just look up my post, you will knw how far undecided

The fear of Buhari ant-corruption in the air, no more sharp practices to making big profits, even banks now know you have to properly account for the profits they make now.

Can't you get it? There was a reduction. A very sharp decrease in their profit margin in 2015 compare to 2014.

Every firm or company want to make an increase in profit yearly and not the reverse. Unfortunately the poor staff suffer the consequences.

Every time companies want to cut cost / reduce expense, the first place they look at on their P & L is Staff Expense.

I hope the sacking would start from the top (GM to SM cadre)

But those ogas would find a way to push the Tsunami on junior staff which would have minimal effect in reducing the bank's expense.

For three years now, First Bank has refused to pay me my dividend.

In case you don't know, all firstbank's branch secretary, all area Managers and all regional managers are gone already.
Now, the bank's recruitments concentrates more on the contract staffs. Very soon, sometime this year, the only core/permanent staff in all FirstBank branch won't be more than 3 (The BSM, HLS and the Head Cash) others will be contract staffs. (Note: only for those in operations department)

Unlike before whereby a bank marketer will meet his/her target through the lodgement unscrupulously stolen from public treasury, the chip is down: no more collaboration to loot the public money in collaboration with yeye politicians PDP again.

The ineffectual buffon and his entourage of looters really milk this country dry.

Now, marketers would sooner or later be forced to go out and look for private investors/organizations who will borrow money from them so that they can meet their target. Inability to meet this target will lead to summary dismissal.

The ineffectual buffon and his entourage of looters really milk this country dry: don't worry, bank marketers will soon reach your doorstep begging you to take a loan from them just to meet their target.

Lazy banks were storing government monies and slush funds, declaring huge billions as profits but paying peanuts and employing casual staffs to do all their jobs. Thieves, the epicenter of the corruption that's killing Nigeria are these banks themselves. Crooks everywhere.

Re: First Bank To Sack 1000 Workers by toggy: 3:24pm On Apr 29, 2016
Any management who cannot think of a better way of solving issues is weak, incompetent, wicked and without vision. It is becoming too rampant for top managements in most Nigerian banks and companies to resort to cutting jobs as a tool for solving problems in their organization. haba! you cannot be doing the same thing all the time and expect a different result. cutting jobs is not your permanent solution. if you continue to cut jobs, someday this angry jobless people will cut your live! you are not helping the economy by so doing.
