Guaranty Trust Bank (GTBank) Limited has informed its customers that it would close its branches across the country for business earlier than expected.
On Saturday, February 25, 2023, Nigeria heads to the polls for the presidential and National Assembly elections.
The level of participation in the build-up to the exercise has increased, with several youths and upwardly mobile Nigerians deciding to take back control of the political space.
This has heightened the 2023 elections, and the decision of President Muhammadu Buhari to approve the Naira redesign policy of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) to frustrate vote buying brought a new twist to it.
In a notice to customers, GTBank said its branches would close for business on Friday, February 24, 2023, by 12 noon.
“Please be informed that our branches nationwide will close to customers earlier than usual on Friday, February 24, 2023.
“Kindly note the early closure time [is] Lagos and upcountry branches at 12 pm.
“We encourage you to take advantage of our secure, convenient and always-on alternative channels for any of your banking needs,” the message seen by Business Post read.
The lender listed these channels as ATM, internet banking, GTWorkd mobile app, *737#, and GT Connect.
