Popular fetish priest, Nana Kwaku Bonsam, has revealed exclusively to Kasapa FM that he invested a whopping sum of 400,000 Ghana cedis with Menzgold but was quick to withdraw about 85 percent of the money before the company halted payment.
According to him he was able to retrieve 350,000 Ghana cedis out of the initial deposit of 400,000 when he got a hint that the company was about facing some liquidity challenge and could collapse perpetually.
“I was home when Afia Shwarznegger called me and I asked why then she said come with me to Menzgold let’s go and collect our money meanwhile at that time, the issues had not started so I told her to give me time to look into it first” he told Kwaku Owusu Adjei on Anopa Kasapa.
“I then quickly went there to take my money but I was given 350,000 and was told to come back another day for the remaining 50,000 but when the issues started I couldn’t go because others with more money than mine were even not complaining” he added.
