If Innosson wins at supreme court what will be the fact of GTB? Will it fold like other banks?

If Innosson wins at supreme court what will be the fact of GTB? Will it fold like other banks?

They will have to pay whatever is agreed on the court and move on with their life, but it wouldn't affect the operation of the bank because their capacity is above the money they will pay

please this is not the case Innoson awarded 8.4 billion Naira for. ..stop misleading people

Please all I need to know if it won't affect customers banking with Gtbank. Will the bank fold up. Rumors is spreading

Let supreme Court decide.
