Read the article carefully and ask yourself whether Nana Addo is taking any money from this bank!
The horrible old greedy fool, alhaji has no better news than hatred news.
Is it not the same criminal Ibrahim mahama and his murderer brother, incompetent propaganda president mahama, who categorically denied that the UMB ba ...

THIS IS A WRONG MOVE THAT MIGHT ANGER GHANAIANS. AKUFO ADDO SHOULD BE A LITTLE MORE CIRCUMSPECT. MAHAMA AND HIS BROTHER USED MONEY OWED TO GHANATO BUY TO FRAUDULENTLY ACQUIRE A BANK OWNED BY GHANA. TO GUARANTEE NPP'S LONGEV ...

Government should carefully vet the source of these funds. It is known that US$5 billion stolen Libyan money was flown into Ghana from South Africa.Perhaps this stolen loot is being recycled through this bank.
It is expected that a delegation from Libya will be arriving in Ghana shortly, to commence action to recover US$ 5 billion known to have been flown into Ghana during the Mahama government. Is the bank recycling this money.
Such national cohesion is exactly what Ghana needs to propel the growth dynamics of the country. One would have thought the Ex President Mahama, criticised and mocked the famous " One district one factory " project, notwithst ...

If he's promised USD100m it doesn't mean he's going to give it to the projects for free. If the bank has earmarked that amount it means he knows he can make more money from loaning that money to companies for the projects. It ...

You thieves are just afraid of the incorruptible president but I can assure you that you won't go Scott free for taking the Merchant Bank for that chicken change.
First, banks are there for money making only,this is an investment. Two, Akuffo Addo made a promise that he could not keep and started seeking private investors for the projects. They even sent someone to petition ghanaians i ...

So where in the article did the bank promise the $100 million? Your paper is gradually becoming a useless one
Where is Kennedy Agepong, he should also add small and stop talking.
He has not stolen anything from Ghanaians. Get your facts straight. He fights for the poor, weak, under-represented and unrepresented in the Society unlike your thieving heroes.

Most of us do get it especially with this wacky journalist. However, the supposedly criminal component of the acquisition of this bank is not going to go away and must be dealt with on of these days.
This is stolen money. Mahama and his brother are all thieves. We don't need that stolen money
those who are claiming is a state money..a what proof do you have.and besidr is the president taking money from them or asking them to invest in the fund..
