Mixed reactions have continued the acquisition of Diamond Bank by Access Bank, a Nigerian multinational commercial bank, owned by Access Bank Group.

The report stated that the official announcement of the transaction will be made in the course of the week by the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN).

The development came a week after Diamond Bank announced its decision to drop its international operating license to focus on national operations following capitalisation issues.

Diamond Bank’s chief executive officer, Uzoma Dozie, confirmed the development in a statement released on Friday.

“With this approval, the bank will cease to operate as an international bank,” Dozie had said.

Moments after the news of the acquisition broke, Nigerians took to the microblogging site, Twitter to air their opinions on the acquisition.

I don't want to have anything to do with access abeg




very soon ......i mean very soon now ......power bank will acquire Rekado banks

It's just hard to believe. I mean Access bank kwa

I banked with then before the days of Intercontinental Bank merger but I abandoned my account at Access bank two years ago. I notice that they charge a lot of monies from that account. Other banks charge "Card Maintenance fee" and transfer/withdrawal charges(if you withdraw more than twice on ATM and transfer charges for transfers) but ACCESS BANK deduct more than that even when I allowed the money in their bank to lie fallow.


At A time, if I saved say N50k before two months, the money will come down to say, N49100. I complained severally in their branch at Port Harcourt and AbJ but they didn't solve the issue. They charged "monthly card maintenance fee", " Transfer charges", SMS charge (to send me alert o)and other hidden charges every month. I had to withdraw my money and leave the ledger balance of N2000. Even till date, they still send me my monthly balance (e go don be N0.00). Yeye bank!


I hope they won't bring that policy to Diamond Bank.
