Returnee Accuses UBA of Withdrawing N150 Million from His Account Over False Death Claim

A Nigerian man who recently returned to the country has accused the United Bank for Africa (UBA) of unlawfully clearing ₦150 million from his account based on false claims that he had died.
The startling allegation surfaced during a live video call with renowned human rights activist Gwamnishu Harrison, who has pledged to pursue legal action on the returnee’s behalf.
According to the man, who has chosen to remain anonymous, the incident took place in 2023 while he was residing abroad. He explained that during his stay outside Nigeria, he consistently deposited funds into his UBA account, making contributions several times a year.
However, upon his return to Nigeria, he was shocked to discover that his account had been emptied. Bank officials allegedly informed him that individuals had withdrawn all his savings after falsely declaring that he was deceased and had already been buried.
He further claimed that when he visited the bank to demand an explanation, police officers were already present, ready to arrest him. The man said he had merely raised his voice in frustration and disbelief, yet was accused of causing a disturbance.
Human rights groups and legal observers are now calling for an investigation into the matter.
