  PRESS RELEASE.  Easter Goodwill Message- NNPP  The New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) hereby issues this strategic and reflective EASTER Message as a wake-up call to all Nigerians—leaders and citizens ref—as the nation gradually approaches the 2027 general elections. This moment in our national life demands not rhetorics, but reflection; not promises, but purpose; not politics as usual, but a rebirth of national consciousness anchored on discipline, foresight, and rule of law.

  Union Bank Looted: How former directors gambled with billions and nearly destroyed a national bank The former directors and owners of Union Bank did not just fail, they engineered a financial disaster. They manipulated reports, hid massive losses, diverted foreign loans and treated depositors’ money like a private wallet. Investigators uncovered billions of dollars in misconduct.

They even used the bank’s own funds to buy its shares, an outrageous betrayal of trust. It didn’t stop there. Over $100 million was pulled out improperly, leaving the bank exposed and struggling. Loans meant for customers were secretly diverted into shady transactions. False reports were sent to lenders. The system was deliberately deceived. This was not incompetence. It was exploitation. By 2025, their actions had created nearly ₦400 billi...

When 8 million Customers Trust You, Safety Cannot Be an Afterthought Nigeria’s digital banking revolution is raising the stakes for consumer trust.                      The question is whether the industry is rising to meet them.

The figures speak for themselves: point-of-sale transactions surged to a record N18 trillion in 2024, a 69 per cent increase from the year before, and the number of POS terminals in operation more than doubled to 5.5 million. Mobile banking is now the most widely used digital financial service in the country, with four in five users having accessed it within any given 90-day window....
