The management of Stanbic Bank Uganda has confirmed that one of its staff members at the Metro branch in Kampala has tested positive for the coronavirus.
The bank has been forced to close the branch temporarily as staff members isolated and test for COVID-19.
The branch will now be to only the officials from the Ministry of Health officials so that they can disinfect the premises and it will only open after a certificate from Ministry of Health is given to them.

Clients of the bank are now encouraged to use mobile banking and the other opened branches that will continue to observe SOPs.
