COVID-19: Why Access Bank is shutting down one of its Lagos branches
Access Bank Plc on Monday announced that it is shutting down its branch at Ligali Ayorinde in Victoria Island, Lagos.
The bank explained in a statement that it is taking the action because an individual who visited the branch on Monday Match 16, 2020, has tested positive for the novel coronavirus and is currently at an isolation center in Yaba, Lagos.
“In line with our emergency response plan and following regulatory practices, the branch has been temporarily closed for thorough disinfection. Persons who had contact with the concerned individual are currently in isolation,” the bank said.
It also advised anyone who visited the bank in the last week to self-quarantine for a period of 14 days.
