CBN head office
The CBN‘s Acting Director, Corporate Communications, Mr. Osita Nwanisobi told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN), on Wednesday, that ATMs were introduced so as to ease the sufferings of the people.
Nwanisobi spoke on the heels of customers complaining that the proliferation of Agent Banking is responsible for ATMs not having money to dispense any more.
Some people have alleged this was due to banks conspiracy with CBN.
The director also described as “preposterous” insinuations that the apex bank conspired with commercial banks to ensure there was no money in the machines.
“It is highly preposterous for anyone to say that CBN connived with banks to deprive people of their money this season.
“I assure the public that CBN will investigate the matter,’’ he said. (NAN)
