Nine banks are scrambling to repay debts owed to Telcos from the use of USSD codes and avoid being disconnected from the service by the January 27 deadline.

Commercial Banks have commenced the enforcement of daily and weekly withdrawal limits of N100,000 and N500,000 ordered by the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN).

Insiders said that Zenith Bank, one of the largest lenders in Nigeria, laid off several senior staff members as part of a significant organizational restructuring.
