I remember UT bill board with chimpanzee. His unconventional no mercy method of ceasing cars and properties of defaulters. When Mr Amoabeng was interviewed about his unconventional methods he justified it.

Thank you. He's portraying himself as a victim. It was bound to fail. His 1+1 was not always 2

Mr Amoabeng how did you treat defaulter of those who took loans from your UT bank. You showed them no mercy. You used the most brutal way to recover your loans. You cease cars of defaulters taking their children to school.

The tests are:
Were UT and Cspital banks insolvent?
Were the revocations done in line with Act 930 ?
The shareholders should answer these two questions.
My understanding of the article is that the banks were insolvent but BOG should'nt have applied the law.

What Amoaben said is, he got an investor to bring in capital but this I subject to bog approval. That investor already deposited money with big to show they are serious. But bog rejected the investor but never told ut bank that the investor ut brought us not acceptable. It never gave it bank hance to get different source of capital.
The bank was closed and taken over even before the bank was notified of revocation

Please stop throwing dust into the eyes of the general public. Where is the letter? What you posted is a response to a "supposed" letter... and your headline to the story very deceitful.

I have not read the book but does he mention in it the enticement he used to trick people to take loans and later they lost everything?
A loan in less than 24 hours it was .
Many people believed they will get back the collateral they put but they never did and the big man knew very well the outcome. Legal stealing.
Plenty of lands for his real estate business were they bought by him or he got them the easy way ?

Amoabeng seized so many cars that he got a big plot at Atico in Accra where he was keeping them. He himself once said that he would get drunk and storm the house of a defaulter a grab his car. This shows that he had no knowledge at all about proper banking. Had the government not stepped in he would have been the first NAM 1 in Ghana.

KOFI you are making toooo much repulsive noises these days. You look disoriented disorderly disheveled and unkempt rowdy.I think you have gone bonkers. With such eccentric foolish irrational advertising of your person you could not have guided and controlled your Bank successfully . Your public exhibition these days is not that of an ex Banker from that conservative and noble fraternity.Your Bank and Nduom Bank collapsed many years ago be4 OFORI ATTAH gave it the final giraffe kick. As a retired soldier permission is granted you to go home shave the untidy scruffy prickly disordered beard and take a cinnamon bath. Refrain from the tiresome dull tasteless tedious interviews begging for undeserved sympathy. And also immediately stop the public intoxication and the clumsy misstep dancing in public.

This man paa today you have mouth to play victim
Be truthful and let the public know how badly managed your institution had become. Where key management personel and shareholders were taking Loans left right centre and not paying. Where some even took to buy Ships and later said pirates have captured the ships. BoG gave U millions in liquidity support and U squandered it. And you want them to have continued to threat you like a friend. Ah Amoabeng paaa .

I was one of the shareholders of UT bank, but couldn’t received any information about the closure of the bank. Shares bought, no dividends. It took a year before I heard it, when I went to the bank, just to know that they are no more operating,I was told that NPP government has dissolved them or cease them from operating. So UT bank is no more. So where is our (shares) monies ?
