Heritage Bank in N650 Million Settlement Saga …Read Details

A senior Advocate of Nigeria, Barrister Dada Awosika has commenced a legal battle against Heritage Bank of Nigeria over N23million debt posted to his firm’s account. 

Mr. Awosika SAN alleged that Heritage fraudulently manipulated his firm’s account by surreptitiously hiding disgusting and posting a bogus debit of over N23 million into the said account as against the standard practice for a banking outfit to bring to the attention of their customers any form of activity or information concerning their accounts.

Consequently, Mr. Awosika SAN is urging the court to order Heritage bank to pay him the sum of N650 million as General, aggravated and exemplary damages for the outrageously, reprehensible conduct of the bank occasioning loss and damage to him in the fraudulently manipulating, appropriating, and converting the credit balance and other cash deposits made into his account and for failure of the bank to exercise reasonable skill and care in the running of his account and for breach of fiduciary duty and confidentiality.
