The Locked-up Investment Holders Forum has issued a two-week ultimatum to the Ministry of Finance to respond to their petition, which demands the release of their locked-up funds.
The group staged a picket on Wednesday, March 27, to urge the Bank of Ghana to address the issue of investments trapped in BoG-regulated financial entities and to press upon the Finance Minister to take action as well.
However, the forum expressed disappointment that the Ministry has yet to act on their demands.
In an interview with Citi News, the convener of the group, Dr. Adu Anane Antwi, stated that they would resume picketing if there was no positive response soon.
“After the next two weeks, if we don’t hear anything from the [Finance] Ministry, then we will consider the last option of picketing at the ministry so that is what we are bringing to the ministry.
“Picketing will get you a response if you continuously do it. And when we start, we are not going to break. It will be like we did for the pensioner bondholders. Once we haven’t gotten a response, we will not stop picketing.”
