Sir,
Letter of Complaint
We
the participants in the First Batch YIEDP training; hereby bring to
your notice, our current state of mind as regards the events following
the conclusion of our training.
The
number of applications Heritage Bank forwarded to CBN for approval
confirms a suspicion that the training was a hoax; we were used as seat
fillers to orchestrate a clandestine campaign.
We were Beneficiaries, before the press. The world saw Heritage Bank …transforming us, into economic value creators. Then followed a FOUR months delay;
a provoking show of nonchalance; which totally outraged us particularly
due to lack of useful updates during this tedious long wait. We
consider this delay an illegal waste of our time. Now ’ACTUAL BENEFICIARIES’ have emerged and we the trainees hardly know them.
Worse,
is the insignificant number purportedly being funded; a blatant affront
to the greater number of us. We know we merit way better than 26 out of
1200-Finalists (not Applicants)!!!
If this meager number is all Heritage Bank can afford to fund, we will
be inclined to publicly question the banks’ ability to anchor the YIEDP.
These red flags, among others, tell us Heritage Bank may in fact not
have the requisite resources to sponsor any serious government backed
entrepreneurship development programme.
There will be no need for any hostilities, or name sullying; if the bank will meet us half way.
The
bank should send mails with a comprehensive report on the outcomes of
the YIEDP so far to all trained “Beneficiaries”. They should also inform
participating individuals on the precise reasons why they are not being
funded. We consider these simple requests, fair and reasonable; and
expect they can be met before Saturday the 15th of October, 2016.
With the above requests met, we will begin to agree on ways forward, beyond all these.
Kind Regards
YIEDP Abuja First Batch
