A report on Newsacross, claims that in desperate bid to increase its capital base, Access Bank, has resorted to numerous unethical practices. In a desperate bid to remain in business, the bank has set unrealistic targets for their female staff, insisting that they either live up to expectations or lose their jobs. A huge number of female bankers, have either lost their jobs due to non-compliance or kept the jobs by embracing what has now been tagged ‘corporate prostitution’. The report also states that Access Bank, has even gone a step further by buying official cars for some of the ladies, who go about in skimpy revealing dresses to seduce high net-worth ‘customers’ to make deposits. This ‘trade’ has been so mastered by some ladies that they don’t have to fix a date or a venue for the exploitation, as they have ‘ready-made package’ for randy depositors who wish to explore the spontaneity aspect of the business.
According to Newsacross: “One of the female marketers, Solabomi Olugbemi, of the Retail Business Unit at Simbiat Abiola branch of Access Bank, died early this morning. She had been on admission for over two weeks. Her friends and co-workers who visited her, said she confided in them that she was under a lot of stress, because of the Deposit Mobilization mandate (OJC) Operation.”
“And this is because the Divisional Director gave them an ear-pulling warning early this year, to raise N1 trillion in six months. Solabomi lost her life because of bad accounts she inherited from a product called Auto-online (Car Loan), coupled with the incident of one of her customers withdrawing 200million naira from his account which left her balance sheet in the negative.”
NewsAcross also gathered from an insider in the bank that S olabomi collapsed on the last day of OJC target deadline, because she was unable to maintain a huge demand deposit balance. She was immediately rushed to Jolade hospital in Gbagada, Lagos but she was later taken to Military hospital in Ikoyi, Lagos where she was diagnosed with high blood pressure.
Young and jovial, Solabomi, 29, is survived of three little children and a lovely husband. The report further asserted that sources also confirmed that over 60% of access Bank staff are highly hypertensive and run the risk of heart attacks in their young age.
