He said the bank that was started by the laity now remains the only local bank operating in Uganda and offering products meant for the rural poor especially in Agriculture which is also the backbone of Uganda's economy. He encouraged the Youth to approach Centenary Bank to access their money that the government entrusted with the bank to be given out as loans. Ebinu said the bank with over 1.5 million customers partnering with 69 branches and 172 ATMs countrywide plus Cente Mobile and Internet Banking, will soon be rolling out Agent Banking to save the people from walking long distances from home to the bank.
