A group representing investors holding money in bankrupt financial institutions, the Locked-up Investment Holders Forum, has threatened to picket again outside the government of Finance since the government has not responded to their petition for the release of their locked-up cash.
The organization has given the ministry two weeks to reply to their petition, which asks for the release of their monies that have been embezzled.
In order to protect investors’ money, the group picketed on March 27 and demanded that the government set aside cash to support the cancellation of licenses for bankrupt financial firms.
There was talk of another demonstration, but the minister chose not to interact with them.
Dr. Adu Anane Antwi, the convenor of the Locked-Up Investment Holders Forum, acknowledged the group’s dissatisfaction in a Citi News interview.
“On March 18, we sent a reminder to the minister and pleaded with them to ensure that the ministry gives us a response within the next two weeks from the date of the letter, which was March 18th.
The two weeks will end this Thursday, May 2nd. As of now, we haven’t heard anything from the ministry. If we haven’t received a response from the ministry by the end of the day on Thursday, as stated in our letter, we will resort to our last option, which is to picket at the ministry,”
