The former president of Musician Unions of Ghana (MUSIGA), Bice Osei Kuffour, popularly known as Obour, according to the bank statement left ¢265,000 in the Union’s account before he left office. This was confirmed by MUSIGA’s current treasurer, Samuel Kofi Agyemang, who explained that the money is yet-to-be received by the Union due to closure of Midland Savings and Loans, where the investment was made under the signatory of Obour.Midland Savings and Loans was part of the 23 savings and loans and finance house companies which licenses were revoked by the Bank of Ghana last year.Due to that, payments of claims have been issued to the current President Bessa Simons to make way for effective payment through the Consolidated Bank Ghana as soon as possible.Read the document below:
