Customers who lost their funds due to the collapse of Gold Coast Fund Management Company protested at the Finance Ministry’s entrance overnight to demand the release of their locked-up funds.
The group is protesting because they have not yet received the GH¢8.6 billion approved by Parliament to settle its members.
A group of customers from various regions of the country had converged to demand their rights. Their plan was to picket at the Finance Ministry for 48 hours in a bid to draw attention to their demands. However, despite their efforts, the ministry did not give them the necessary attention.
The convener, Charles Nyame, intends to send a strong signal to the government by spending the night at the ministry, urging them to fulfil their financial obligations.
