The chairman of Groupe Nduom and founder of the Progressive People's Party (PPP), Dr Papa Kwesi Nduom, has announced plans to organise a rally at the end of November to push authorities to revive his defunct bank, GN Bank.
According to him, the rally will take place in the Central Region during the last week of November 2024.
Papa Kwesi stated: “It is our intention to hold the 'Bring Back GN Bank' rally in my hometown, Elmina, so look out for the announcement and the location where we will be holding this event.”
“We want people to come and rally with us, we want people to come and identify with us, and we want people to come and let the entire country know that what happened to GN Bank was needless, pointless, and very destructive,” he added.
Papa Kwesi made these comments during a Facebook broadcast on Wednesday, 6th November 2024.
He titled the broadcast “Disappointed but Not Discouraged” to express his displeasure with the fate of his banking business, which was affected in 2017 by the government’s efforts to sanitise the financial sector.
In his discussion of what he described as “the journey of business in Ghana,” Dr Nduom painfully lamented the state of the nation’s economy.
According to him, “About 70,000 direct jobs are connected to what we have done and what we were doing at Group Nduom.”
However, the majority of these employees were affected and lost their jobs following the collapse of his banking business.
Papa Kwesi engages the public through his Facebook page on a weekly basis, with his conversations mainly focused on the state of the economy, particularly in the banking sector, unemployment, and good governance.
