GTB Customer Service Stands Out As Customer Celebrates GTB Staff

Image
Why GTB is still the most preferred Bank for me and my family. One thing that an average person desires in this harsh economy is to have a responsive banking system,  especially in the area of customer service relations. Sometime ago, after my re-dedication to God,  I was led to change my last name from the family compound name to my late Dad's name,  which I knew won't be so easy considering the banking policies and bureaucracy. Although,  I opened my GTB account at Abeokuta,  but because I am always at the Redemption City of God every month,  I decided to try if I can get it done there. To cut a long story shot,  I visited the branch and was directed to Mrs Adesanya Olayinka,  honestly speaking,  it was as if we have met before,  her composure,  calmness,  listening ears,  her prompt responses,  made it very easy,  she gave me 100% attention and within a short time,  I was done. When I returned...

ROTATIONAL PRESIDENCY AND GOVERNORSHIP:THE BEST FOR NIGERIA.

Image
1. Unwritten Peace and Unity Codes should become written in the heart of all reasonable stake holders in Nigeria. 2. Presidential Candidacy should  be structured in a manner that North and South Rotational Presidency should be adopted by lovers if peace and unity.I heard El Rufai and many others spoke firmly on this in 2022 to support the South to take over from Buhari.The analysis of rotation was what Tinubu summarised as EMILOKAN in Abeokuta in 2022 before APC primary (which means, it is my turn because it is the turn of the south.) 3. We might then begin to do INTERNAL rotation within the 3 Geo Political Zones in the North and 3 Geopolitical Zones in the South. 4. In other  words, whenever it is the turn of the North, Northern Candidates should  emerge  from any among the three which are ;North Central, North East or North West. 5. The same principle must apply to South. That is,  when it is the turn of the south, it should come from South West, S...
