OPay Debunks Shutdown Rumour, Says Services Will Continue Beyond September 1

OPay has denied a viral claim that it will suspend operations from September 1, 2026, and urged customers not to withdraw or move their funds based on the message. The fintech company said the circulating notice, which advised users to remove money from their accounts, is false and misleading. It maintained that its services remain fully operational. OPay advised customers to verify financial announcements through its official communication channels before acting. The company also warned that deliberately spreading false information capable of causing panic around a financial institution may have legal consequences.
