Nigerian sensational singer, Yemi Alade has taken a swipe at Access Bank after its MD revealed that they would be retrenching some of their employees.
In a video that has gone viral, the Managing Director of the bank Herbert Wigwe spoke about the bank`s plan to reduce 75% of its employees which consists of outsourced staff like cleaners, security, and tellers. He also revealed that they would also be slashing the salary of the remaining staff.

Yemi advised that they focus on staff which is their main and most important asset and not lay off staff or reduce their salaries.
