The branches are: one in Nnewi, two in Onitsha, two in Awka and two in Enugu and would move to seal the GTB Head office next week. According to spokesperson Cornell Osigwe, Innoson will seal more of GTB bank branches nationwide to recover the N8.8 billions owed to the motor company.

“We will seal more of their properties to recover our money and from next week, we shall move to GTB head office to enforce the judgement of courts. We will sell  those properties to get our money back”, Cornell Osigwe, said.

Recalled that in a statement, on Friday, Innoson said it has obtained a court order to take control of  GTB over indebtedness of N8.8 billion.
