Dr Ayo Adepoju, Group Chief Financial Officer, ETI, announced this in a notification to the Nigerian Exchange Ltd.(NGX) on Monday in Lagos.

He stated that Mashreq Bank psc. also joined the transaction as a Mandated Lead Arranger.

According to him, the facility has a tenor of 12 months, with a six-month extension option at the lenders’ discretion.

Adepoju said: ”The bridge-to-bond loan also comprises an accordion feature that enables an increase in the total commitments under the facility within a given timeframe.

“We are very excited about this new facility, which provides additional liquidity buffers for the bank.
