Customers whose names are published as huge debtors by the various financial institutions are not going to watch their names go public for the wrong reason without a fight.
Days after Abike Dabiri sued Diamond bank to the tune of N500m for falsely publishing her name in a national newspaper among those owing the bank, renowned philanthropist and business mogul, Prince Engr. Arthur Eze has also sued the management of Wema Bank Plc to the tune of N200bn for allegedly publishing his name among those owing the bank, when in actual fact, he is not owing them.
To assuage the damage he suffered on account of the false and defamatory publication of his name and photograph among the debtors of the bank in a national daily on August 7, 2015, Eze is asking for the sum of N200bn through his lawyers.
The bank had earlier published that Eze owed the sum of N136.93m.
