United Bank for Africa (UBA) has launched the UBA Braille Account Opening Form, a first of its kind initiative in the Nigerian and African market, designed specifically to cater to the financial needs of the visually impaired.
Until now, this special section of the society has been disadvantaged, but with this initiative, UBA has demonstrated a commitment towards providing an excellent user experience for all its customers, regardless of their individual abilities or disabilities.
