Members of the Pensioner Bondholders Forum, who have been demanding payment of 7 Outstanding coupons say they have started receiving some payment.
As a result, they will not be picketing at the Ministry of Finance today, June 29, 2023, as planned as mentioned in a statement signed by the Forum Convenor, Dr. Adu-Anane Antwi.
The Pensioners had announced that if their outstanding coupons are not paid, they will continue with their picking today but rescinded their decision when they started receiving their payment yesterday, Wednesday, June 28, 2023.
The statement says the Forum hopes that the payment will cover all the outstanding coupons that are due from June 5 to June 25, 2023, adding that within July 10 coupons will become due and payable.
The statement reiterates that Pensioners will picket the Ministry of Finance anytime it delays the payment of coupons and principals. It hopes that its coupons will be prioritized as promised by the Ministry of Finance and paid as and when due to forestall any subsequent picketing by members of the Forum.
