Akufo-Addo must uphold his promise to us - DKM customers
Aggrieved customers of DKM Microfinance Company
have asked president elect, Nana Akufo-Addo, to
deliver on his promise of getting their locked up
investment paid back to them.

Akufo-Addo in the run up to the just ended 2016
presidential and parliamentary polls, pledged to
reimburse the victims of the DKM scandal.

“I’ll pay you back in full when I become
president,” said the presidential nominee of the
NPP at the party’s mini rally in the Brong Ahafo
region.

"I will investigate government's inability to pay
the tier two pension monies as well as investigate
the DKM scandal and to ensure that there would be
total restoration to all affected in both
scandals,” he added.

Following his electoral victory last week, the
aggrieved customers of DKM urged the
president-elect to ensure they are refunded,
warning it would be chaotic should he renege on
his campaign pledge.

The spokesperson of some of the customers in
Tamale, Mohammed Ibn Issaka, in an interview with
Citi FM stated that they are hopeful the president
elect will adhere to his promise.

“...We just want to remind him of the promises
he gave us. Infact Nana Addo received massive
endorsement from most of the DKM customers in the
country. He was voted for because of the promise
he gave us. We only have the hope that he will be
able to fulfill his promises and not fail
us,’’ said Ibn Issaka.

Akufo-Addo on Friday 9 December, 2016 was
pronounced as president elect by the Electoral
Commission.

He polled 5,716,026 votes representing 53.85% in
the 2016 elections to give him an edge over the
ruling National Democratic Congress leader Mahama,
who garnered 4,713,277 votes representing 44.40%
of the total votes.
