  1. Na waa oooo. Is the picture below or above? If this mistake was made by another person, I know that you will blow it out of proportion. Do you still remember the case of oga at the top?

  2. Central Bank of Nigeria should some times carry out promotions to bless her customers. 45m is not too much to lose as far as CBN is concerned. I pray you guys find him, if he still in the country.

  3. The bank staff allowed him to withdraw such amount without due diligence and checking his account history to confirm if the transaction is in tune with his previous dealings with the bank?

  8. CBN and EFCC should leave the man alone , you guys wanted to steal but ended up fumbling the whole process. That's the guys share of the national cake. In fact my lawyer must take up this case against the CBN and EFCC

  9. I really really really really hope and pray they don't find him. When the politicians are doing their legal stealing in the form of huge exorbitant salaries EFCC did not pursue them. Now an ordinary citizen got blessed from above they are after his life. May they not succeed.

  10. Can we blame this man? This is era of miracles. God sent money into his account. When has it become a crime wen a person withdraws money from one's personal account? This man has no case to answer QED

  13. Omo I no even wan read other comments but if it happens on my account, i'll first withdraw the cash, close the account, visit one o two destitute homes and give them halve of the money. Then i'd move to another country. From there i'd email CBN and cc the email to my bank thanking them for such gesture and if they said it's a mistake i'd tell them sorry but I had pressing needs and the money has been put to sort those needs.
    It might not worth anything but i'd feel so good after accomplishment of all these.
