Zenith Bank Customer Sues Over Denied Access to Funds Due to Court Order
Paulyn O. Abhulimen, a customer of Zenith Bank Plc, filed a lawsuit against the bank after being unable to access her funds following a court order allegedly issued by a Chief Magistrate in Mararaba Gurku, Nasarawa State.
Abhulimen claimed the bank froze her account based on the order, which she argued was invalid as it was obtained from a non-jurist entity and lacked the necessary jurisdiction. The case raises questions about the bank's breach of fiduciary duty and the legality of the court order.
