<p> ;</p>
<p><strong><a href="https://openlife.ng/">OpenLife Nigeria</a> </strong>reports that the management of Zenith Bank Group is alerting all its customers and general public to disregard a current video on social media indicating that the Chairman of Zenith Bank Group, Dr. Jim Ovia has endorsed an investment scheme called &#8220;Wealth Bridge.&#8221;</p>
<p>The bank says that the video, on a &#8220;Greece Island&#8221; Facebook handle, is not true, adding that it is a trick to defraud unsuspecting individuals by swindlers.</p>

<p>In an official statement made available to OpenLife, the Bank stated that “<em><strong>All the videos and promotional materials referenced are FAKE and have nothing to do with Zenith Bank Plc or Dr. Jim Ovia, CFR.”</strong></em></p>
<p>In the statement, the Bank therefore advised all its customers and general public “<em><strong>To disregard these fraudulent communications.”</strong></em></p>
<p>Below is the full statement titled “<a href="https://www.thisdaylive.com/">Fake News</a>”</p>
<p><em><strong>Our attention has been drawn to a doctored video and still pictures currently circulating on social media, purporting to depict the Group Chairman of Zenith Bank Plc (&#8220;the Bank&#8221;) as endorsing an investment scheme called &#8220;Wealth Bridge&#8221; on the &#8220;Greece Island&#8221; Facebook handle and soliciting members of the public to engage in a business relationship with the so-called entity. </strong></em></p>
<p><em><strong>This claim is entirely false and has no connection whatsoever to the Group Chairman, the Bank or any of its affiliate companies.</strong></em></p>
<p><em><strong>This video makes a fake promise of up to N2 million in weekly returns on a contribution of N380,000 investment in the aforementioned project via a Facebook group. The video goes on to allege that the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) approves/endorses this said project. </strong></em></p>
<p><em><strong>The video redirects unsuspecting members of the public to an alleged &#8220;Arise News&#8221; webpage with details of this &#8220;scheme&#8221; and an embedded registration portal for signups. This claim also is entirely false and has no connection whatsoever to the Bank or its Group Chairman.</strong></em></p>
<p><em><strong>For the avoidance of doubt, all the videos and promotional materials referenced above are FAKE and have nothing to do with <a href="https://openlife.ng/">Zenith Bank Group Plc</a> or Dr. Jim Ovia, CFR.</strong></em></p>
<p><em><strong>The Group Chairman of Zenith Bank and the Bank have no knowledge of the said investment scheme and have not entered into any partnership with the companies, individuals, or platforms behind these schemes.</strong></em></p>
<p><em><strong>The general public is hereby advised to disregard these fraudulent communications. Anyone who engages with the &#8220;Greece Island&#8221; handle, &#8220;Wealth Bridge&#8221;, &#8220;delicious sitee&#8221;, &#8220;AfriQuantumX&#8221;, &#8220;Stock market analyst 1&#8221; or any other entity on the basis of these fake videos and images published by impostors does so strictly at his or her own risk.</strong></em></p>
