FirstBank IP Infringement
Nigerians are one of the most hardworking people on Earth. Despite the harsh economic situations facing the country, we still work hard to make ends meet. It is however sad that a big brand such as @FirstBankngr would try to stifle our small business.

It is unfair that after almost a year of designing the popular 125th year anniversary Logo for First Bank which they deployed globally, they have refused to pay us. Many Banks out there are supporting the creative industry we wonder why First Bank has chosen to be an exception.
