The conference is set against the backdrop of the recent opportunities and challenges that e-banking has offered Nigeria.
According to Oki, “We recognize that with boundless challenges come boundless opportunities. The advent of e-banking into the Nigerian economic structure, like every other human, has come with its opportunities and challenges”, he stated.
While the banking industry has enjoyed an increase in online activity because Nigerians have embraced it, many citizens have not found the experience interesting. This is because their money have taken invisible wings and flew out of their bank accounts.
Almost everyday on popular social networking sites like Twitter, you will see many people venting their complaints and frustrations by tagging official bank handles. Those who don’t have the temerity or knowledge of that avenue have resorted to fate and vowed to return to the old ways of keeping their monies under their bed, in piggy banks, with thrift collectors, and others. This is real!
Some bank officials are fingered in this foul play as defrauded customers have accused them. The customers claimed that they do not reveal their BVN, ATM passwords, OTP, and other security information to anyone, so the fault must have come from within the bank system.
What is the bank doing about this?
Does the Nigerian banking structure want to gain three steps and lose four steps because of the failing integrity of bankers?
What are the banks doing to fortify their online platforms away from hackers?
What reforms are the banks planning to infuse into the world of e-banking.
