Workers have been recruiting for five months.

"We were looking forward to that because my salary was not enough and that most of us have commitments and loans that we had to pay and that we have to pay," one Workers who resigned from the Consolidated Bank and who wants to remain anonymous said Citi Business News in an interview.
The approximately 3,000 workers at the five consolidated banks have seen their wages reduced and their allowances, including rent and clothing, also removed by the managers of the bank that currently runs their old businesses.
