The Union Bank of Nigeria Plc, on Sunday, denied social
media report that it would shut down its daily operations, beginning from March
23 due to the Coronavirus pandemic.
The Head, Corporate Communication and Marketing of the bank,
Ogochukwu Ekezie-Ekaidem, said in Lagos on Sunday that the financial
institution would be opened and fully operational.
“Union Bank branches will remain open and fully operational
to serve customers during these Covid-19 crises.
“In addition, with the exception of customers serving

assess the situation and make necessary adjustments as events unfolded.
Besides, she said that the bank branches were now operating
under a heightened hygiene protocol, all in a bid to ensuring safe banking
