Good move.

Is this about UBA's marriage or Elumelu's marriage?

Arrest over false claims? Why don't you just debunk the story and move on? Btw, you may not have divorced your wife, but I know you are cheating on her.

But this has got nothing to do with UBA if i'm not mistaking🤔. And i think x algorithm should be designed in a way that spreading false information will not only unmonetization but would also attrack penalty such as ban from participating in the x revenue sharing

Na individual dem defame, na bank Dey arrest.
The individual is no more and his shares are with the bank.

I am confused. Why is UBA the one taking actionhuh

Is the alleged defamation not directed at Tony in his personal capacity??

This alleged crime is committed against individuals, Tony Elumelu and his wife, not against UBA so why is UBA the one confirming the arrests of people alleged to have committed crime.

CBN should call UBA management to order.

Lifestone:
Against UBA Chairman
There is difference between the office of bank chairman and the individual. The chairman's office has no wife but the man occupying the office is the one who has a wife.
He and his wife should be dealing with getting justice for themselves.
CBN need to demand that UBA retracts this meddlesomeness.

Satazaa:
His name in itself is a brand and because he is a renowned individual and public figure a damage to him is a damage to the brand UBA because the two are synonymous
"His name is a brand" is not the same as "his name is the brand."
Dangote can claim that.
He can't.

But even if it were Dangote, then his personal estate is the one to respond and not Dangote as an entity, even though it bears his name.
Simply because there are other people, called stakeholders, who are not concerned with his personal life, and a statement from the group is a collective statement of all of them.

Those guys don buy market. Dem get money to fight bank? Social media will be the death of a lot of people. Even if the information you have is genuine, what is your business sharing it on social media? How does that benefit you? Content abi? No worry. You will be very contented in prison.
You have just summarized the whole matter above sir. Honestly, the abuse of social media can be very nauseating!! If they don't teach one or two people valuable lessons, how would others learn?

But sadly, some others are still going to do same error as we speak

That is exactly how Nigerian businesses spoil their brands.

Because of a reference to your chairman's private life, the group officially issues a statement.

Meaning any clapback will be on the group and its shareholders, not on the chairman.
In this instance there is a very strong correlation between the Brand and the Chairman. Assault on one is an assault on the other. I support their move.

The use of law enforcement to arrest people based on personal matters must end in Nigeria. Any enabling legislation must be repealed. While we must also disapprove of inappropriate behaviour, such civil matters should be pursued through the courts as such, unless where public interest is clearly violated.
