Wema Bank Plc says it has launched a solar-powered mobile
branch to make banking services available to everyone in all parts of the
country. The bank’s Head of eBusiness, Mr Damola Bolodeoku, in a
statement on Wednesday in Lagos, said the mobile branch was
fitted with two
automated teller machines.
According to Bolodeoku, the mobile branch tagged: “Wema Bank
on Wheels”, will bring convenient banking services to Nigerians at their door
step in line with global best practices, using technology.
He said, “We are taking banking services to Nigerians, no
matter where they are.
“Being an environmentally-responsible company, our mobile
branch is powered by solar energy – a first in the Nigeria’s banking industry.
“Banks around the world have often used mobile banking
vehicles as a cost-effective service delivery channel as competition becomes
stiffer.
“As such, every financial institution strives to provide
their customers with the latest technology-driven services.”
The Head, Customer Service Management, Kemi Aina, said the
recent closure of the bank’s branch in Abule Egba due to road construction
fast-tracked the mobile services.
Aina stressed that “Wema Bank on Wheels’’ would help to
reach Nigerians who missed out through “our internet banking and USSD banking
services.”
