Man who almost sued Heritage Bank speaks

Meanwhile, Legit.ng previously reported that a man who almost sued Heritage Bank had reacted to their liquidation.

Ekezie said he had threatened to take Heritage Bank to court for refusing to allow him to move all his money domiciled with them to his Fidelity Bank account.

Citing the financial institution's inability to improve its financial performance, the CBN revoked Heritage Bank's license on June 3. He said they eventually complied and would have their license revoked months later.
