He said that the banks would continue to remain open to serve the public as long as it was safe to do so.

According to him, the safety and security of staff of banks is of paramount importance.

“Therefore, the safety concerns being expressed in various quarters are already being addressed.

“Banks will continue to ensure that adequate security measures are in place to protect staff and customers whilst safeguarding their assets in contending with the current challenge,” Opara said.

He appealed to the general public to remain calm and eschew any act of violence adding that the banking industry remained resolute and committed to finding ways to address all the related issues.

“We indeed appreciate your continued patience and understanding as we work together towards restoring normalcy,” he said.

Many commercial banks have been attacked by alleged bank customers with protests recorded in different states across the country, over the scarcity of the redesigned denominated banknotes. (NAN)
