The aggrieved customers of the now-defunct Gold Coast Fund Management company have started a two-day protest to demand the release of their locked-up funds.
The customers are currently at the premises of the Finance Ministry to begin their 48-hour protest.
They are wielding several placards with different inscriptions in demand for their lock-up funds.
The defunct company, originally known as Black Shield Capital Limited, had over 55,000 customers whose funds were frozen after the government cancelled its licencing.
The aggrieved customers who are mostly pensioners told journalists that life had become hard for them.
Others stated they needed the money to support their families, including some of their children who were still in school.
The group said that the GH8.6 billion granted by Parliament to fulfil its members’ claims had not yet been paid, thus the protest.
