The Nigeria Deposit Insurance Corporation (NDIC), yesterday called on depositors of Unyogba Microfinance Bank in-liquidation to come forward for their verification and payment of their insured deposits.
The Corporation on its Twitter handle yesterday said the bank is located in Kogi, adding that the exercise would commence between January 30 and February 10 at the branches of the closed banks in the state or any NDIC office.
The Corporation listed the bank’s branches where the exercise would take place to include Ejule, Anyigba, Ugwolawo, Federal Polytechnic, Idah and Okpo.
The NDIC called on affected depositors to present their passbooks, cheque books, and other proof of account ownership together with any valid means of identification during the exercise.
It said that eligible depositors could also visit the Corporation’s website at www.ndic.gov.ng/claims to download and fill out the claims form.
On December 21, 2020, the NDIC began to liquidate 42 microfinance banks (MFBs) across the country following the revocation of their licences by the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN).
In 2018, the CBN revoked the operating licences of about 153 MFBs and six Primary Mortgage Banks (PMBs). (NAN)
