The Agricultural Development Bank PLC (ADB) has announced the temporary closure of its branch in Bawku, citing escalating security concerns in the area.
In a recent press release, ADB confirmed that the branch would remain closed until the security situation improves, stating that this step was taken with the safety of staff and customers in mind.
ADB has maintained a presence in Bawku as the sole operational bank in the region for over a year. Other commercial banks previously withdrew their operations from Bawku, also due to the volatile security conditions.
By closing temporarily, ADB joins the ranks of other financial institutions prioritizing staff safety amidst the ongoing tension in the area.
The bank assured customers that its commitment to serving the people of Bawku and surrounding communities remains strong, promising a return to regular branch operations as soon as stability is restored.
In the meantime, ADB encourages customers to use its electronic banking platforms, which will remain fully accessible to facilitate transactions and maintain essential banking services.
“We remain dedicated to providing universal banking services across the country,” the statement reads, underscoring ADB’s broader mission to deliver essential financial services even in challenging conditions.
