Ex-GN Bank staff, concerned small-scale miners congratulate President-elect
Congratulation messages continue to pour in for the President-elect, Jon Dramani Mahama, for winning the 2024 Presidential Election.
Since being declared the winner of the December 7 general election by the Electoral Commission, the President-elect continues to receive messages of congratulations from home and abroad.
The latest to send their messages are the former staff of the defunct GN Bank and the Concerned Small-Scale Miners Association of Ghana.
Ex-GN Bank staff
Former employees of the defunct GN Bank have congratulated President-elect John Dramani Mahama and the National Democratic Congress (NDC) on their recent electoral victory.
"This overwhelming support is a clear manifestation of the collective will of our community united in the desire for meaningful change in Ghana," a statement from the group, signed by its convenor, Philip Sarpiah, said.
The group acknowledged the significant challenges faced by the nation due to the 2019 banking crises which had devastating effects on millions of Ghanaians.
The group expressed its appreciation of President-elect Mahama's commitment to restore indigenous financial institutions that were unjustifiably dismantled.
"Your promise to revive GN (Savings) bank, some of the defunct banks, along with several Savings and Loans and Fund Management companies resonates deeply with our aspirations for economic recovery and stability," the statement said.
As President-elect Mahama assumes office, the group prayed for God's guidance and blessings upon him.
"May you be granted long life, strength, wisdom, knowledge, insight, courage, and the fear of God to guide your governance," it said.
The group reiterated their support for the President-elect and the NDC, saying, "We stand with you in the journey ahead."
Small-scale miners
The President of the Concerned Small-Scale Miners Association, Michael Kwadwo Peprah, in a message on behalf of the association, congratulated the President-elect on his resounding victory, saying it was ‘a beacon of hope’ for the small-scale mining community.
“We trust that under the leadership of President-elect John Dramani Maama, the small scale mining sector will thrive, and the policies outlined in the NDC manifesto will be fully implemented to benefit the miners and the nation as a whole,” the message said.
The association further pledged its cooperation with the incoming government to ensure a smooth and sustainable operations within the mining sector, expressing a fruitful partnership that will advance the interest of the artisanal and small-scale mining sector.
