You can’t create jobs yet destroy what others created – former GN Bank manager attacks Ken Ofori-Atta
Kofi Asamoah-Siaw, former General manager of Group Nduom Bank and running mate for the Progressive People’s Party in the 2020 general election has chided the Nana Addo-led government of lacking the foresight to create jobs yet opted to destroy or collapse institutions that others have toiled so hard to build.
Marking 3 years on after the decision of government and Bank of Ghana to close down some financial institutions in the wake of a clean up exercise that affected GN Bank, the former general manager said “If you have no idea how to create jobs, do you destroy what others have built or created”?
He lamented the decision that saw over 3,000 Ghanaian youth loss their jobs. He also bemoaned how vehicles that were used by the workers are now rotting away in a warehouse in Tema.
“Just tell me if these abandoned vehicles were bought with leaves and the drivers were Chinese nationals. Even the motorcycles were assembled here in Ghana by other Ghanaians working for GN Motors. Now you see how some private sector people know how to make the cedi stronger”? part of his Facebook post read.

Today, 16th August 2022, marks the 3rd Anniversary of the reckless decision by the Finance Minister and his able lieutenant, the Governor of the Bank of Ghana, to revoke the license of GN Savings & Loans for purely political considerations.
Apart from the abandoned offices built by GN, these 300+ vehicles and dozens of motorcycles continue to rot away in an abondoned garage somewhere in Tema.
The over 3,000 workers too remain jobless whiles the government ends its NABCO programme.
If you have no idea how to create jobs, do you destroy what others have built or created?
Just tell me if these abondoned vehicles were bought with leaves and the drivers were chinese nationals.
Even the motorcycles were assembled here in Ghana by other Ghanaians working for GN Motors. Now you see how some private sector people know how to make the cedi stronger?
