Most of you are ignorant

Being the founder with low finance to push your firm, doesnt make you the owner, major shareholders in GTBank are from UK

Unlike Zenith bank and UBA heirs holding is own by Elumelu control top stake in UBA same as Zenith bank, GTBank are UK firms

You seems not to understand how shares works dude?

Do you know GTBank UK is a subsidiary of GT Nigeria, and not the whole of GTbank.

I pray you knowledge and education can comprehend what I just wrote up there anyway. grin

Let me repeat myself, they are ' sub-si-diary. Dorh grin


Erm, GTbank headquarters is based in Nigeria and not uk. So, I hope you understand the word ' subsidiary now' huh

Your ignorant is legendary. Why go all the way to the UK for GTbank while your UBA, zenith banks stays within Africa? No wonder you dont understand what you are doing.

Don't be cuny, bring forth GTbank Nigeria ( which happens to be the origin of all GT)and let's compare the shareholders with that of the locals, UBA and Zenith bank respectively.

Lool cheesy

I knew it!!!!

Shares are open markets and it's meant for cooperate world, not individuals. Ask yourself, why Jimi name wasn't on the shareholder's list being the founder, his family? He has many shares/companies name there bearing different companiesgrin


Majority holders stays within Africa so,I repeat, the 11 % is a sub of GTb. You can't comprehend this. grin
