The President of the National House of Chiefs, Ogyeahoho Yaw Gyebi II, who also doubles as the Paramount Chief of the Sefwi Anhwiaso traditional in the Western North Region area, has paid a courtesy call on the leadership of GCB Bank PLC.
Head of Corporate Affairs, Mr Kojo Kwarteng, who welcomed Nana Ogyeahoho Yaw Gyebi II introduced management and emphasised the monumental role Chiefs played in establishing GCB Bank.
In an interaction with management, Nana Ogyeahoho Yaw Gyebi II commended GCB Bank for having the national interest at heart and added that there’s always the clamour for GCB Bank branches due to the strategic role the Bank plays in national development.
The MD of GCB Bank, Kofi Adomakoh, expressed appreciation for the visit and congratulated Ogyeahoho Yaw Gyebi II for his election as President of the National House of Chiefs in November 2020.
He called asked for God’s guidance and the wisdom of King Solomon to discharge his duties with distinction.
Mr Adomakoh stated that the visit was timely since, in a few months, GCB Bank will commemorate celebrations for its 70th Anniversary, which falls next year, by recognising the cultural and national heritage of the bank.
He added that as a strategic national asset, GCB Bank is driven by profit motives and social and economic development considerations. As such, the bank will continue to seek the interest of Ghanaians.
DMD Operations, Odartey Lamptey, who was at the meeting, also emphasised that GCB Bank’s wide branch network is driven by the need to seek the well-being of Ghanaians.
He added that GCB Bank is the first bank to establish a mobile money wallet dubbed G-Money, which has a unique advantage of being telco-agnostic. As a result, everyone can use it, irrespective of their mobile network.
G-Money is currently utilised by many organisations, including cocoa-buying firms, who use it to pay cocoa farmers in a safe, secure, and speedy manner.
Nana Ogyeahoho Yaw Gyebi II called for a closer working relationship between GCB Bank and the National House of Chiefs to help drive Ghana’s socio-economic agenda.
Nana Ogyeahoho Yaw Gyebi II and the management of GCB Bank also discussed other issues of mutual interest.
