Customers of Collapsed Gold Coast Fund Management temporarily suspend protest, await discussions with government

Customers of the collapsed Gold Coast Fund Management Company have temporarily suspended their picketing at the Finance Ministry, following an intervention by Mr. Mohammed Amin Adam, a minister of state at the ministry.

The minister met with the protest’s leadership, and they have agreed to hold further discussions tomorrow to address their concerns.

The customers had been picketing at the Finance Ministry since the previous day and had initially planned to continue their protest until Thursday.

The primary issue that led to the protest is the release of an approved GH¢8.6 billion by Parliament to settle the customers’ claims, which has not yet been disbursed to them.

Members of the group, who had traveled from different parts of the country, had pledged to picket at the Finance Ministry for 48 hours to emphasize their demands.

The group’s convener, Mr. Charles Nyame, explained that the suspension of the protest is due to the scheduled meeting with government officials tomorrow.

However, he emphasized that they are prepared to resume the protest if they do not receive a favorable outcome following the meeting.
