We are not saying pay us with tax payers money - Menzgold customers

The secretary of the Aggrieved Customers of Menzgold in Accra, Samuel Odartey, said government’s statement on Thursday, January, 10 that it would not use taxpayers’ money to settle them, was unnecessary

He said that the public and government may have misconstrued their demands for wanting to be paid with taxpayers money.

“All we are saying is that government has the power to make sure it brings back the CEO, Nana Appiah, let the law deal with him so that they put structures in place and pay our monies back. From day one, no client of Menzgold said ‘use taxpayers’ money to pay us’. That wasn’t the issue,” Odartey said.
