Nine people have been arrested in connection with the burning down of two banks in Warri, Delta State.
The Quest Times had reported that no fewer than two new generation banks and two vehicles have been set ablaze in Warri, Delta State over scarcity of new Naira notes.
The two Banks were identified as access and union bank.
The Quest Times gathered that at least Nine suspects have been arrested so far.
The protest was triggered by the inability of its ATM to dispense the new naira notes and the rejection of old Naira notes.
In a video obtained by The Quest Times, the bank was on fire while the mob held someone suspected to be bank manager hostages
