![]() ![]() Saving money in Nigerian banks for interest purpose is just pure scam... Any Interest less than 10% is nonsense, you can imagine banks offering as low 6% per annum on fixed deposit investment while interest on borrowing gets upto 20 - 30%...what fvckery is that..and to think that they also deduct 10% of the accrued interest on every fixed deposit.
