Tanzanian bank National Microfinance Bank (NMB) which was formerly a micro finance bank has publicly paraded former employees who took loans and have defaulted.
According to the notice the bank had issued several notices which the employees failed to honour.
NMB claims that the ex staff members had refused to pay even after they were constantly notified that they should pay. The Tanzanian bank has therefore given the employees 14 days to repay the outstanding loan.
They have been warned that failure to repay within they stipulated time period will be considered as consent to initiate legal action.
NMB is ranked number three in terms of market share in Tanzania, with 12 per cent.
