The Locked-up Investment Holders’ Forum members resumed picketing at the Finance Ministry today, Wednesday, June 5, 2024, following the ministry’s failure to engage with the group as promised.
The group suspended an earlier protest after Deputy Finance Minister Dr. Stephen Amoah assured them of addressing their grievances.
However, the members claim they have not received any response from the ministry despite reminders.
Dr. Adu Anane Antwi, Convenor for the locked-up investment holders’ forum, said they have been left with no choice but to resume picketing to demand assurances from the Finance Ministry to enable the Bank of Ghana to pay funds locked up in defunct finance firms.
“I sent the Deputy Minister a text message and a WhatsApp message last Thursday reminding him that we are still waiting for him to call us for the meeting,: he said.
He continued “We still have not received any response whatsoever from the Ministry of Finance, and therefore…this coming Wednesday, June 5, we are resuming the picketing.”
