How To Open A GTBank Student Account In Nigeria & Requirements Needed

If you’re currently a student in any Nigerian University, Polytechnic or College of education, this is very important: You need a student account without zero opening fee and zero running balance to receive money from home and to carry out transactions in school.

Not having money to open a bank account is no longer an excuse. Students are open to different favour and opportunities. Someone can just say, “Send me your account number so that I can transfer some cash to you”. It is an error for you to say, “I don’t have a bank account yet”.

With these few points of mine, I hope I have been able to convince and not to confuse you that you need an account as a student in any Nigerian University, Polytechnic or College of Education.
