Dear @FirstBankngr Compliance Department, I am writing to formally express my outrage and deep concern regarding the wrongful disputes and subsequent restrictions placed on multiple bank accounts as a result of transactions handled by First Bank under Western Union NGN payouts. Western Union has clearly confirmed to us that all the transfers in question are legitimate, successful, and fully completed transactions. They also confirmed that they did NOT issue any instruction to First Bank to dispute these payments. However, on Friday, First Bank proceeded to dispute several @WesternUnion NGN transfers made to various Nigerian banks. As you are fully aware, First Bank is the official partner responsible for handling Western Union Naira transactions in Nigeria. It is therefore shocking and unacceptable that payments processed under your supervision are now being flagged and reversed without lawful justification. To further clarify: Transfers sent from First Bank (Western Union payouts) to @UBAGroup were reviewed by UBA, cleared within 24 hours, and all restrictions were lifted. This clearly confirms that the transactions were legitimate. 2Despite this, @myaccessbank , @fidelitybankplc , @Ecobank_Nigeria and @gtbank, @sterling_bankng, @StanbicIBTC, @LotusBank, @wemabank accounts remain restricted. Some of these banks have even debited our balances and placed the accounts in negative, causing severe financial damage and reputational harm. This situation is unjust, financially damaging, and unacceptable. If this matter is not resolved immediately with: > Full reversal of all wrongful disputes > Removal of all restrictions > Restoration of all debited funds We will have no option but to escalate this issue formally to the Central Bank of Nigeria @cenbank , the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission @officialEFCC , @western Compliance International escalation, and other relevant regulatory authorities for investigation into this conduct. We demand an urgent written explanation stating: > On whose authority these disputes were initiated > The legal basis for disputing completed Western Union transactions > Why other banks have cleared the same transfers while restrictions remain elsewhere. This matter requires immediate resolution. We expect a prompt response within 24-48 hours. Yours faithfully, _0xneatneat

Nigerian banks are using so-called “glitches” to freeze funds, destroy livelihoods, and harass innocent citizens. Many victims are denied justice simply because they lack money for legal representation. We demand urgent financial reforms, independent investigations, and protection for the average Nigerian. Petition Body: To: Central Bank of Nigeria (@cenbank) Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (@officialEFCC) National Assembly of Nigeria (@nassnigeria) Federal Government of Nigeria (@NigeriaGov) We, the undersigned, are raising our voices against the silent but dangerous financial warfare being waged against everyday Nigerians by banks hiding behind the term “bank glitch.” Here is the pattern affecting thousands: A customer receives a legitimate transaction. The account is flagged without prior notice. A lien is placed, and access to the funds is blocked. Banks request “proof of legitimacy” from the account owner. Even after providing all required evidence, the money remains frozen—sometimes indefinitely. The sending bank often refuses to help, claiming “a court order” without giving access to any legal documentation. This situation creates a terrifying reality: How can we talk about financial freedom when we can’t even access our own money—after proving we earned it legally? Worse still, the victims of this system are often those who can’t afford legal representation. Lawyers charge more than what’s locked up—imagine a lawyer asking for ₦1 million to recover ₦500,000. Many victims give up. And in too many cases, unscrupulous lawyers exploit desperate victims, collect fees, and vanish without providing help. At the end of the day, it’s the wealthy and connected who get quick resolutions. But the average Nigerian is left stranded, hopeless, and financially crushed. A Timeline of These “Glitches”: Flutterwave (2023) – Multi-billion naira Access Bank (₦3B – May 2023) First Bank (₦44B – Aug 2024) NIBSS (Sept 2024) Keystone, Wema, Stanbic IBTC, Union Bank (2025) Hope PSB (3x in 2024), Lenco, Lotus Bank, Fidelity, Bankly, Moniepoint Some victims are still locked out of their funds with no compensation or resolution. We Demand the Following Reforms: Review and restructure PND (Post No Debit) and chargeback systems. Banks must investigate the actual sender of funds, not just the receiver. Stop the harassment and criminalization of 3rd and 4th-party beneficiaries. Ensure transparency in “glitch” claims with access to legal documents. Mandate affordable, accessible legal support for financial victims. Launch an independent investigation into recurring abuse patterns in Nigerian banks. This is a cry for justice, dignity, and protection. The financial system should empower, not destroy. We are tired of being punished for doing nothing wrong. Sign this petition. Share your story. Demand reform. #ReformNigerianBanks #StopBankAbuse #BankGlitchExposed #FinancialJusticeNow #ProtectNigerians @myaccessbank @UBAGroup @FirstBankngr @keystonebankng @wemabank @StanbicIBTC @LotusBank @joinkuda @fidelitybankplc @moniepointng @vdm
