Hi @CHILUMKURU 

Usually, a Jira Admin has turned the banner on - it's not on by default.

If you aren't an Admin, your only option is to dismiss the banner - if this setting is active. If dismissing is an option, there will be a small white "x" on the right-hand end of the banner.

If you are an Admin and want to remove the banner...

1. Go to Jira Settings > System
2. Select Announcement Banner
3. Toggle Banner is shown to users to OFF
4. Press Save
