GTBank Family Crisis…Who Will Settle Segun Agbaje and Fola Adeola Animosity?
The presence of the two financial titans spurred the pottery kiln of GTB’s rise, a point towards its blooming boom in its formative years. At the onset, Fola had the initial strong stake with Aderinokun, co-founders with the Mastermind of the financial service hall. Agbaje’s vigorous energy, his clear-headed vision were instrumental as well. All of that, team work, hardwork, progressive positivity and adaptability championed its value as a seasoned financial house. The trouble that loomed for years, hidden and dismissed as speculative diggressions have raised its head yet again, it is now felt both inside and outside according to sources.
Sources affirmed that the centre appeared to always fit till the death of Tayo Aderinokun in 2011. Agbaje, formerly a deputy GMD, took the sit as the General Manager nodding to the guidelines of the Central Bank of Nigeria. Fola Adeola, a former CEO didn’t take that in lightly, he had other thoughts as to how things should have been. Other things led to another. Thus, the beginning of the cold war. The scenario, approached from the sources, appeared to grow many branches that birthed the rift. For instance, give a pundit a seat and a bottle of chilled water beside a glass cup and you get the unedited version in one breath. Replace a pundit with whatever comes to mind but do not forget that the matter have more sensational subtance than what is now regarded as disturbing animosity.
A degree of contrivance will be allocated to the delirium crises in GTB, in other words, a family crises. Who will settle these titans? This probing interrogation sits atop the questionnaire, stretching its hands, begging for a lasting response. A cold war has activated itself between the two lions: between a co-founder, a former CEO and the new GMD alluding to the thoughts that when powerhouses throw barbs, the floor dependants will never be able to contain the earthquake; staffs would take sides a consequencial act with severe miscalculation.
The garb of secrecy is no longer serving the animosity, it has fallen over. What was earlier dismissed by insiders as speculatory rumors have now become undeniable. High flaming internal war, like wild fire, needs a good fire service to put them out, in this case, a good hand, a diplomatic head, willing to place an end to it. Also, particularly worthy of note, a semicancerous war of this kind can easily be knocked about before its metastasization point. Subsequently, a leader might have the wish to step up and join the two hands together.
