nairalanders please a little help will do
I opened a bank account with Zenith Bank, And also enrolled for my BVN there, but there was a Mistake in the name I Used, I used my surname and first name for my BVN and my surname, first name and "other name" for my bank account
so I wanted to link the bank account with my BVN, then i was told I couldn't, because of the name differences, so i opted to having a "correction of name" then I was instructed to go get an affidavit from a Court, a newspaper publication, An ID card containing the names I want to change to, then write a Letter, I can get the rest, but the newspaper stuff seem stressful to me.
So, I Want to ask, Since I've gotten my BVN, Can I go to another bank to open an account using the BVN and the details (name) on it, and forget about Zenith Bank?

My dear u can use only affidavit
I have faced same problem

Don't go there the form professor
Wetim fit bank people na to behave like tout and insist on what u are saying

If not, they will even tell u to bring local government identification and letter from ur community ruler.

The court affidavit is enough
