In the spirit of #SocialJustice I will be calling out @FirstBankngr by the end of day. We have tried dialogue & informed @cenbank of their gross negligence but they have refused to prioritize the case in question. We will be filing & going public @citizen_gavel #GrossNegligence
We have been on this case for 7months now. 👉🏽
The rate at which @FirstBankngr is hurting Nigerians is alarming and this unprofessionalism has to end now. Asides from illegal deductions and retention of millions of cutomer’s money without reversal, here is the worst of their gross negligence.
I’m sure they are unaware of which of their corporate crime is making the media waves thus their futile attempt at restitution. I’m sure a few of you have started getting unexpected feedbacks and reversals hours after this thread started from them. Please pay attention.
The gentleman here is @johncinewilcox who was invited to Nigeria on an online editing project. He is a young editor renowned for his expertise. But frustrated after his unfortunate encounter with @FirstBankngr’s vile negligence. It’s been 7 months now. @cenbank @CPCNig 
When he went into one of their branches at Isheri Ojodu to do some transactions. He was told he can’t be allowed in with his bag containing his laptop and hard drives which had all his showreels and lifework.
He obeyed and kept his bag in the box provided as guided by the security guard. And he locked it with a key given. He also noticed there was a CCTV in the area.
Minutes later he returned to find out that his bag, laptop, hard drives and life work have been stolen. He met the locker ajar. It was at that point he realized that the keys to the lockers can open all others lockers. None was unique.
He petitioned the bank manager, reported to the police, a report was generated, guard was arrested, the manager agreed to their liability and promised that the insurance firm will pay for the losses.
But since then despite all the hurdles presented nothing has been done and we are learning now that the insurance firm is seeking means to shelve liability. 7months of this guy’s life is gone with his life work. His clients are suing him for their jobs that he can’t even recover.
We also wrote via our legal hub @citizen_gavel to the CBN, CPC, Police CP etc on the behalf of this particular victim of @FirstBankngr and we are yet to get a tangible feedback. Now we are done being nice. #GrossNegligence
This is a cross section of the kind of threat messages Mr John reads on the daily from clients whose music videos are pending. Many have gone fetish and diabolical on the matter and shrines across Africa are chanting John’s name amidst incantations. When will FirstBank respond?
So after a bit of back and forth. A lame letter was sent from First Bank to manage the situation without actually doing anything about it.
We had to allow for the engagement of yet another firm to double the effort when we saw nothing was forth coming having seen the psychological torture MR John was going through.
Sometimes when I read his messages or speak with him on the phone, I can’t the help tears falling from my eyes. I know how hard it is to lose your life work and have people breathing down your neck. It gets complicated when the people responsible are not prioritizing your issue.
They kept managing him with false hope. Bouncing him from the Bank manager to the insurance manager and CBN Liason too kept him on “Is coming” Where on earth is social justice?! Is this how we will allow our citizens be treated by the BiG Banks?! 🤔
On this one we will call in all the favors and make BIG trouble. The criminal conspiracy here is that that branch have quickly gone ahead to change the storage locks and their dysfunctional CCTV that only records the ants on the floor. #GrossMisconduct
This is no longer a DM matter. That Brand is dead. The Elephant will change again when we are done. How could you people treat human beings like this at this difficult time? You can’t even spell my name. 😡
While we’re at this please @citizen_gavel can we prepare a class action suit along side for the none reversal based on the account given on the thread. We only need 50 complainants to establish this & file it together for economic losses and psychological trauma. #GrossNegligence
Immediately after Election, that @FirstBankngr nranch will host the largest customer Protest ever in the history of Africa. We will be proud to facilitate this if this matter is not resolved in the first week after the Presidential election. DJs, Press, Citizens all invited.
There will be a Nationwide Protest across @FirstBankngr Branches in behalf of Mr John Cine Wilcox whose life was almost ruined by the #GrossNegligence of the Bank, the criminal deceit by the bank’s insurance company & the indolence Of @cenbank. The theme is blue. Get ready.
No bank reserves the right to treat Nigerians like slaves on their own fatherland. This oppression must be brought to an abrupt end and first bank must be made an example for others to note. When the date is announced all we need do is assemble at the nearest first bank.
We will start sharing the videos of the assembly of the peaceful protest globally and let the world know how Negligent and unprofessional First bank has been. We will proceed to file in court once after the election is over. Tick Tock
