The head of the think tank IMANI Ghana, Franklin Cudjoe, has waded into the issue of the Bank of Ghana’s increasingly fraught decision to revoke the licence of uniBank, which among all the other banks seems to have been dealt with the most unfair of hands.

Shareholders Of uniBank Condemn Leak Of 'Biased' KPMG Report And Demand BOG Provides Them An Official Copy To Adequately Respond To

The shareholders convey their anger and disappointment at not being given the chance to defend themselves by receiving a copy of the report but are now being tried in the court of public opinion due to the leak.
LEAKED REPORT EXPOSES BOG — KPMG Admitted Their Report Was One Sided And Not Up To Standard But BOG Used It To Shut Down uniBank Anyway In Pursuit of Their Own Agenda
The closure of the indigenously owned uniBank continues to raise eyebrows as it becomes increasingly clear that best practices were not followed and that the decision might have had other motivations aside simply saving the financial health of the Ghanaian economy.
As already made clear in an impressive article by Mark Kofi Poku, the Bank of Ghana violated several laws of natural justice in their closure of uniBank, ranging from not taking their side of the story into consideration, refusing to pay the substantial debts the government owed the bank which would on their own have made the bank financially healthy and even failing to take into consideration the fact that the bank procured a loan from an international source which would have saved it as well.
