Prince Eke, who paid a whopping N80,000 for the line as far back as 2014, expressed his displeasure at the actions of Airtel.
The Nollywood actor further revealed that the line was linked to his bank account, National Identification Number (NIN), and Bank Verification Number (BVN).
“@AIRTELNGERIA THE MAN YOU GAVE MY NUMBER TO HAS EMPTIED MY BANK ACCOUNT. THAT NUMBER IS A SPECIAL NUMBER THAT I PAID 80K FOR. IT’S LINKED TO MY BANK ACCOUNT. NIN NUMBER AND BVN. I USED THAT NUMBER BY AUGUST 2022. I STILL RECHARGE THE PHONE NUMBER PERIODICALLY. WHAT DID I DO TO YOU GUYS”? he wrote on his Instagram page.
