She asked them to avoid middlemen or contractors who are likely to defraud them of their hard earned monies and so they should show interest in the public awareness exercises. Mrs Quartey entreated the general public to be vigilant and not avoid being swindled by fake currency dealers. Mr Cephas Aggor, Hohoe District Officer of ISD said the new currency was user friendly for the visually impaired as it has some features for the blind. Education and conversion materials were also distributed to the public and participants. 26 June 07
