Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on Whatsapp

Following the Central Bank of Nigeria’s revocation of Heritage Bank’s operating license on Monday, the House of Representatives has pledged to collaborate with relevant stakeholders to ensure the safety of depositors’ funds.

In a statement by its spokesman, Akin Rotimi, the House acknowledged the license revocation of Heritage Bank and the designation of the Nigeria Deposit Insurance Corporation as liquidators, in line with the Banks and Other Financial Institutions Act.

“We assure the public, particularly depositors and stakeholders of Heritage Bank, that the House is committed to carrying out its constitutional oversight functions to ensure that this development does not negatively impact Nigerians. The relevant House Committees on Banking Regulations; and Insurance will be up to their duty, to thoroughly examine the circumstances surrounding this decision and the subsequent steps taken by the NDIC.

“Our priority is to safeguard the interests of all depositors and maintain the stability of the financial system. We will engage with the CBN, NDIC, and other relevant stakeholders to ensure a transparent and orderly resolution process, providing necessary support to mitigate any potential negative impact on the public.

“We urge the CBN and NDIC to establish clear channels of communication to allay the fears of the public and prevent any loss of trust in our financial system. Effective public engagement is crucial to maintaining confidence during this period,” the statement read in part.

The statement included a quote from Mohammed El-Rufai, Chairman of the Committee on Banking Regulations, who said: “The committee will closely monitor the liquidation process to ensure that the rights of depositors are protected and that the process adheres to the highest standards of transparency and accountability.”

Also, The Chairman, Committee on Insurance and Actuarial Matters, Ahmed Jaha said, “We will work diligently to oversee that the NDIC executes its mandate effectively, ensuring the protection of depositors’ funds and maintaining confidence in the financial sector. The NDIC Act and the Banks and Other Financial Institutions Act are clear in their provisions that depositors’ funds are insured and protected.”
