The management of Access Bank Plc has denied claims that it is accommodating some military snipers on the roof of its head office towers in Lagos.
The bank reacted to the allegation in a statement issued by the bank on Wednesday via Twitter.
“We wish to address the statement by Arise TV alleging that military snipers were allowed access to our head office tower for operations at the Lekki Toll Gate area. This is untrue.

“The video shared on Arise TV featured an employee of the bank conducting routine maintenance at the tower location. Unfortunately, this was reported as a sniper without any proof.
“As a corporate citizen to impact lives positively, we will never endanger the lives of Nigerians”.
Access Bank further said it is deeply saddened to hear about the unfortunate loss of innocent lives yesterday at the Lekki Toll, “we pray that the souls of the innocent rest in peace”.
Meanwhile, against reports of death during the attack, Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu, after denying that anyone died as a result of the attack on live broadcast, confirmed the death of one of the injured patients moments later.
