 ZIMBABWEAN COUPLE DEPORTED OVER SECRET BURIAL OF CHILD IN BOTSWANA A Zimbabwean couple has been deported from Botswana after secretly burying their child without notifying authorities. Motilinah Mpofu and Christopher Ncube were convicted on Thursday of concealing a death after they allegedly dug a grave for their child in the dead of night. The Gaborone court heard the child had died suddenly. Instead of reporting the death to police, health officials, or traditional leaders, the couple quietly buried the youngster and hoped no one would find out. But the secret did not stay buried for long.   Police moved in and arrested the pair. In sentencing, the court ordered that the couple be taken to the Plumtree Border Post for deportation to Zimbabwe.  Top Botswana lawyer Winnie Masitha who offered the couple free legal representation during the trial, confirmed the deportation to BTV News.

Relief as CBN suspends charges on large cash deposits
 
Relief came the way of bank depositors on Monday as the Central Bank of Nigeria has directed all banks, other financial institutions, and non-bank financial institutions, to suspend the processing charges previously imposed on large cash deposits.

This change, referenced under the “Guide to Charges by Banks, Other Financial Institutions, and Non-Bank Financial Institutions” dated December 20, 2019 (FPR/DIR/GEN/CIR/07/042), affects deposits over N500,000 for individual accounts and N3,000,000 for corporate accounts.

How stronger regulatory framework can pull more Fintechs into Nigeria’s capital market
Analysts say the suspension is a significant shift in policy and will remain in effect until the end of April 2024.

The move is seen as a fortification of the new financial landscape the apex bank is creating which demolishes some of the previous policies of the CBN.

It is also in response to the yearnings of depositors across Nigeria.

The directive mandates all financial institutions regulated by the CBN to comply by not imposing any charges on cash deposits that meet or exceed these thresholds. This development is expected to encourage more significant cash deposits, enhance liquidity, and possibly impact various sectors positively, including small and large businesses.

The move is expected to encourage hoarders to release huge chunk of cash in their possession as the fear of charges made them to withhold huge cash.
