Equity Bank of Kenya has been on the spotlight for all the wrong reasons.
The financial institution which started as a ‘bank for the common man’, a listening, caring financial partner, is now far from that.
Equity has metamorphosed into an ogre, greedily feeding on its own children.
A simple search on social media, that is Facebook, Twitter or on Google will show you that all is not well at the bank.
Complaints after complaints litter the blogosphere, and the Central Bank of Kenya (CBK) seems inept to act.
This bank has caused pain to thousands of families.
