President Nana Akufo-Addo has given the assurance that government will pay back the deposits of all customers of the defunct ‘DKM’ micro finance company by the end of September.
He said his administration inherited ¢70 million debt in the “DKM” brouhaha from the previous government, but the official liquidator had finalised modalities and customers were expected to receive their deposits as soon as possible.
President Akufo-Addo gave the assurance when he inaugurated the Weddi Africa Tomato Processing and Agro farms under the government’s One-District-Factory (1D1F) initiative at Domfete in the Berekum West District of the Bono Region.
The President made similar comments when he addressed the chiefs and people of Zezera at a durbar in the Jaman South Municipality of the region after he inspected work on the rehabilitation of the 31.7 kilometre Bafaano-Zezera-Adamsu road, as part of his two-day working tour in the region.
It was a night of joy and ecstasy at Domfete when President Akufo-Addo and his entourage, including Ministers of State, Members of Parliament and New Patriotic Party officials arrived at the town around 1900 hours.
President Akufo-Addo said his government would forever remain faithful to fulfil all his campaign promises and to alleviate the socio-economic plight of Ghanaians.
He, therefore, called on Ghanaians to vote and retain his government in the 2020 Elections to see improvement in their livelihoods.
