The Managing Director, Jaiz Bank Plc, Hassan Usman has told of plans to expand to operations to Abeokuta and Ado Ekiti in order to onboard thousands of prospects.
Speaking at the launch of the Hajj Savings Scheme (HSS) in Osun, Ogun and Ekiti States as part of the takeoff of the scheme in the South West region, Hassan said the bank has recognised the importance of the region both commercially and spiritually.
Usman who was represented by the Divisional Head, Corporate Services of the Bank, Ismaila Adamu said the COVID-19 pandemic delayed plans to open branches in Abeokuta and some other parts of the region.
Adamu who emphasised the role played by the former Secretary General of the Nigerian Supreme Council for Islamic Affairs, the late Dr.Abdullateef Adegbite, an indigene of Abeokuta in the establishment of Jaiz Bank Plc, hence the need to open a branch in Abeokuta to honour him.
