#AccountWithdrawals Rock GTBank as
#VeryDarkMan Sparks Backlash
In an unprecedented turn of events, over #100,000 Nigerians have reportedly withdrawn their funds from Guaranty Trust Bank (#GTBank) within the last 24 hours, triggered by a controversy involving social media influencer
#VeryDarkMan. The mass exodus follows a wave of public outrage, with GTBank’s official pages flooded with more than #13,000 complaints from frustrated customers since yesterday.
The bank’s mobile application has also taken a severe hit, with both the
#AppleStore and
#PlayStore versions receiving a deluge of low ratings and scathing reviews. Customers have voiced their discontent, accusing GTBank of poor service and questionable practices, amplifying the fallout from VeryDarkMan’s influence.
This turmoil comes on the heels of GTBank’s celebrated announcement as the first Nigerian bank to achieve a staggering
#1TrillionNaira in profit, a milestone that placed the institution in the spotlight. However, sources suggest this achievement may have made GTBank a target. Speculation is rife that the bank was deliberately
#set-up for reputational damage, with critics claiming the controversy was orchestrated to undermine its success. “They were set up for destruction, and they fell for it,” one insider remarked, pointing to the suspiciously swift and coordinated nature of the backlash.
The
#VeryDarkMan saga began when the influencer, known for his outspoken critiques, allegedly highlighted issues involving GTBank, igniting a firestorm on social media. His call to action resonated with thousands, leading to the rapid withdrawal of funds and a barrage of negative feedback. While GTBank has yet to issue an official statement addressing the crisis, the bank’s customer service channels have been overwhelmed, struggling to respond to the surge in complaints.
Analysts warn that this could have far-reaching implications for GTBank’s
#brand and financial stability, especially as public trust wanes. The situation has also raised questions about the vulnerability of Nigeria’s banking sector to social media-driven campaigns and whether GTBank’s competitors could face similar challenges.
As the dust settles, Nigerians are watching closely to see how GTBank navigates this
#crisis and whether it can restore confidence among its customer base. For now, the bank remains under intense scrutiny, caught in a storm that blends public sentiment, social media power, and allegations of a calculated
#setup.
