The LAPO Microfinance Bank Limited has said that the woman in Ogun State who reportedly burnt herself to death over her inability to offset N70,000 loan was not its customer.

“In recent years, there has been an increase in similar false allegations against LAPO MFB by persons who are pursuing an agenda.

“Notably, one of the false stories was peddled by the same individual in the latest video making the rounds. LAPO MFB is exploring legal options against such purveyors of fake news, demarketing and other unethical practices,” it added. The bank further noted that while it encourages beneficiaries of LAPO MfB loans to comply with the terms of their agreement by making prompt payments, it also pays attention to customers facing legitimate financial difficulties.

In an earlier report, a middle-aged woman, known as Mama Dada, reportedly set herself ablaze in her rented apartment over her inability to offset a loan of N70,000 she allegedly took from LAPO. It was gathered that the deceased got burnt beyond recognition as the entire building located at the Oke-Keesi, Itoko area of Abeokuta was razed.All rights reserved.
