If I have a cheque in my name (say a dividend cheque), and I want to pay someone else that amount, can I endorse the cheque somehow?

I mean sign at the bank and give him to deposit in his account.

Or do I have to bank it in my account first and then transfer?

That used to happen along time ago I doubt it happens today due to the fraud in the banking sector.

Last I checked, endorsements are done only for payments made to Saccos and shylocks. And maybe if there's a minor difference in the names of the payee.
