Pensioner bondholders continued their picketing at the Ministry of Finance on Friday, February 9, 2023, to demand that their investments should be exempted from the government’s Domestic Debt Exchange programme.
Joining them on the fifth day of their protest was a former Chief Justice, Sophia Akuffo, who held a placard that read: “We use our bond yields to pay rents, medical bills, electricity bills and water bills.”
This is the fifth time that members of the Pensioner Bondholders Forum are picketing at the Finance Ministry to demand a total exemption of their investments from the Domestic Debt Exchange programme.
