She threatened to go naked

Her loud outburst caught the attention of everyone in the banking hall.

Poised to follow through with the threat to halt banking activities that day, the woman wore her car key around her neck and would stop any banker she saw attending to a customer.

In the footage that lasted over 34 minutes, pressure from bankers, security personnel and some concerned customers to arrest the situation only infuriated the woman more.

At a point, she threatened to go naked and vowed to make the bank her abode that night.

Meanwhile, YEN.com.gh previously reported that a Nigerian man had seized bank equipment over deductions to his account.

In a clip from the incident shared by @instablog9ja on Instagram, the man is seen with equipment belonging to the bank as he threatens to break the item.

The man then stated that he was live on Instagram about the matter, a move a female banker tried to arrest but was unsuccessful as the angry customer stood his ground.

Shouting at the top of his voice, he reprimanded the female banker for trying to stop him from recording the incident in the bank. According to the man, he has been showing up at the bank every day for a month now, yet they refused to fix the deduction issue.
