The president of the National Association of Women Journalists, Alhaja Fatima Abdulkareem, has said the association, the Nigeria Bar Association and other professional bodies have resolved to sue First Bank of Nigeria Plc over the bank’s accusation against Mr. Job Durojaye.
Durojaye, a student of The Polytechnic, Ibadan, was said to have discovered N9.3bn wrongly credited to his savings account, domiciled in one of the branches of the bank located in Ibadan, Oyo State.
He was said to have reported the discovery to the bank management, which quickly withdrew the sum from his account.
The student’s action attracted commendations from Nigerians, while the Mountain of Fire and Miracles Ministry, which he belongs to, honoured him with a car.
But the bank’s management was quoted in a media report as saying that Durojaye should not be celebrated like a hero, calling him a rogue, who had planned to defraud the bank.
Abdulkareem explained on Friday that the bodies, acting under the aegis of Integrity Forum, had decided to sue the bank to demand a N250m compensation on behalf of Durojaye.
