FLASHBACK: Gold Coast Fund customers get ready to ‘bury’ Nduom

A casket depicting the image of Dr. Papa Kwesi Nduom was brought to the Kwame Nkrumah Circle in 2019 by some irate clients of the now-defunct Gold Coast Fund Management, a division of Groupe Nduom.

The protesters’ message to the government was written on the casket they were carrying.

They claimed they needed the money they had locked up freed immediately.

Some aggrieved customers of Gold Coast Fund Management, a subsidiary of Groupe Nduom have converged at the Kwame Nkrumah Circle Tuesday morning with a casket bearing the picture of Dr. Papa Kwesi Nduom.

The customers have gathered to stage a demonstration against the company over their locked-up funds.

The ‘pall-bearers’ carried the casket around while jeering in protest to push for the government’s intervention in retrieving their funds.

The group is demanding the prosecution of the chairman of Group Nduom, the mother company of the investment firm, as well as the entire management of Gold Coast Fund.

They also want the government to freeze Dr. Nduom’s accounts.

Again, the group is demanding President Akufo-Addo sacks the head of the sector regulator, the Securities and Exchange Commission, for allegedly looking on for their investments to go down the drain.

Starting from the Obra Spot, the group is expected to march through the Finance Ministry to the Jubilee House to present a petition to the government.
