So it actually makes sense to some of us that a banker can grant himself loans using customers' names?! Problem dey this country Naija sha....

Banks have standard procedures and approval processes for granting loans which of course involve due diligence especially as concerns collaterals.
There is no bank in the world that will give approval powers to a branch manager to grant a loan of over 50 Million NGN. Of course in this case, before the loan is disbursed, the collaterals must have been verified and legally searched.
I ask, so if a bank staff assists a customer to get a loan and the customer gives money to the staff, does that make the staff a fraudster? I'm not saying that this is what happened in Victor's case, but let us ask questions further....

The report says the loan went bad...
*Why were the customers involved not arrested? Are they dead?
*When a loan stops performing what happens to the collaterals?? *Were the loans not collateralized?
*Is it possible to grant such amounts in loans without collaterals?
*So if we believe Victor arranged the loans for himself, what collaterals did he present?
*Where are the other bank staff (in legal and control departments) who verified these collaterals?

Obviously there is a lot amiss. This man is just being victimized. It has also been gathered that the bank has not even queried him to hear his side of the story.

-Worried.

No it can't be him.I know him from Adam .I stayed both him I d same room for more than 5 years in enugu.he is not a thief.eco bank should go and look for there money.

Ashi.lie victor I know is not a thief.this is simply a loan went wrong.

He is not a thief and cannot be a thief,
Loan to Esubeb staff co-operative can never be said to be given to himself, we can confirm this from the staff, its so unfortunate that he's being treated this way, these are loans granted months back, he has been around even as he is presently on vacation, last week he visited his former branch at Enugu, he travels out and would have gone out since if he stole, he is a personal friend and colleague, let's wait for investigations to be concluded before passing judgement.
Victor is not a thief please !!!

What is this country turning into? Efcc pls go to Abj and gather fraudsters. Eco bank should go and get their money where they kept it and leave Victor alone. Leave Victor to be.

Anonymous said...

You obviously do not know him. You're also not smart enough to see that the report makes no sense! Pity.

Anonymous said...

It's difficult to believe that even you who claim to be a banker or ex-banker cannot see through this report! Can a branch manager give himself a loan with customer's name without the customer being involved .... Especially an amount as high as 50 million??

Anonymous said...

Please let us read in between the lines. Where are the people he approved the loans for? Are they dead or alive? If a manager can single handedly approve a loan of such magnitude for a customer that means depositors money are not safe in Ecobank. There must be someone somewhere that wants to rubbish this man's reputation but let the person know that whatever goes around, comes around and that God sees all that is done in secret. Everyone seems to know this man as a good guy maybe thats why they want his downfall. Well, I dontknow who you are Mr. Victor but just know that God is still God and will not leave you.
