Speaker of Parliament, Alban Bagbin, has established a special committee to investigate the non-payment of customers of the defunct Gold Coast Fund, despite the allocation of funds in the budget.
This move follows a petition submitted to the House by some customers of the defunct fund, presented by Bawku Central MP Mahama Ayariga.
In their petition, the customers are calling for an inquiry to ascertain the reasons behind the government’s failure to disburse their locked-up funds.
Additionally, they are urging authorities to enforce the payment of their investments by the government.
The former Information Minister, while presenting the petition, expressed concern about the adverse effects of the delay on the affected customers and called on the House to promptly address the issue as their representatives.
The Speaker of Parliament Alban Sumana Kingsford Bagbin named a 7-member committee to probe funds disbursement to Gold Coast Fund Management customers which will be chaired by the MP for Essikado-Ketan Hon. Joe Ghartey.
