29th June, 2025 meeting on Account opening Discussion
📰 JNI HOLDS STRATEGIC MEETING ON PLATFORM PROGRESS AND ACCOUNT OPENING
Date: 29th June 2025
Platform: WhatsApp
Time: 8:50 PM
The JNI held its scheduled meeting on Sunday, 29th June 2025 via WhatsApp, with active participation from members across various locations. The session opened with a heartfelt prayer by Abdullahzeez Tairu, setting a reflective tone for the discussions.
In his welcome address, the President appreciated the commitment of members and encouraged everyone to actively contribute ideas regarding the development of the platform. He addressed two pressing matters—annual dues payment and the challenges around opening an official account for the group.
💼 Financial and Banking Updates
The Public Relations Officer (PRO) gave a detailed financial report on the contributions received so far, presenting a transparent overview of the group’s finances.
The Admin shared progress on attempts to open a bank account for JNI, noting that the Moniepoint platform had been explored. However, the President raised concerns about the high transaction costs associated with POS-based platforms like Moniepoint. Drawing from personal experience, he suggested a Union Bank current account as a more practical and cost-effective option.
It was also proposed that the group engage other members from Ife-Olukotun to broaden participation and strengthen the network.
🗣️ Member Contributions
During the interactive session, Abass, Mr. Salami Raimi, and Salau Raheem suggested that a salary or allowance be considered for whoever is responsible for handling the group's financial matters, to ensure accountability and encourage dedication.
The PRO backed the Union Bank option and reminded all members of the importance of paying their annual dues. He emphasized that such contributions were essential for sustaining group activities and projects.
Additionally, the Secretary, Salau Raheem, was assigned to reach out to former members who had exited the group, to check on their well-being and encourage their reintegration.
✅ Conclusion and Resolutions
The meeting concluded with three key resolutions:
-
The group will proceed with opening a Union Bank current account.
-
All members are urged to pay their annual dues promptly.
-
The Secretary will contact inactive members for follow-up and possible re-engagement.
