The customers who wore red attire and held placards with inscriptions such as “Nduom is using our money for cryptocurrency”, “Mr president, God is watching”, “You are a liar Paa Kwesi”, “Dr Nduom bring back the monies of disabled (persons)” marched through the principal streets of Kumasi on Tuesday, 14 May 2019 in a demonstration dubbed: “Nduom Kum yɛn prɛko” to wit kill us now Dr Nduom.



 Some customers with mats threatened to sleep on the streets until their monies are paid back to them.
 According to the angry customers, some of them are unable to pay their hospital bills, school fees of their children and their businesses are collapsing due to the locked-up investments.

 They have, therefore, pleaded with Nana Akufo-Addo to help them retrieve their investments or risk losing their votes in the 2020 general elections.
