National Democratic Congress (NDC) flagbearer, John Dramani Mahama has stated emphatically that he’s never promised to pay back locked up funds of customers of defunct Menzgold firm.
Speaking on the Morning Starr, he noted: “I’ve never said I’ll pay Menzgold customers, I said we’ll investigate and find out what is the extent of indebtedness, what are the assets of the company. Are there any hidden assets that you can lay hold of and dispose of and pay some of the customers…”
“It looks like this government has been reluctant to investigate or even go after those who took people’s money in that fraudulent manner and so I said when we come we’ll pursue and find out what the true facts are and we’ll take remedial action to see how we can alleviate the suffering of customers…the point is why should people who have perpetrated something like this walk away without any inhibition?” he quizzed.
