Nana Ogyeahoho Yaw Gyebi II
OGYEAHOHO YAW Gyebi II, President of the National House of Chiefs, has paid a courtesy call on the leadership of GCB Bank Plc.
Kojo Kwarteng, Head of Corporate Affairs, who welcomed Nana Ogyeahoho Yaw Gyebi II, introduced management and emphasised the monumental role chiefs played in the establishment of GCB Bank.
Nana Ogyeahoho Yaw Gyebi II, who is also the Paramount Chief of the Sefwi Anhwiaso Traditional Council in the Western North Region, commended GCB Bank for its services.
MD of GCB Bank, Kofi Adomakoh, expressed appreciation for the visit and congratulated Ogyeahoho Yaw Gyebi II for his election as President of the National House of Chiefs in November 2020.
Mr. Adomakoh stated that the visit was timely since in a few months, GCB Bank will commemorate celebrations for its 70th Anniversary which falls next year by recognising the cultural and national heritage of the bank.
He added that as a strategic national asset, GCB Bank was not only driven by profit motives but by social and economic development considerations and as such, the bank would continue to seek the interest of the Ghanaian.
Odartey Lamptey, DMD in charge of Operations, emphasised that GCB Bank was the first bank to establish a mobile money wallet dubbed G-Money which has a unique advantage of being telco-agnostic and as such it could be used by everyone irrespective of their mobile network. G-Money is currently utilised by many organisations including cocoa-buying firms who use it to pay cocoa farmers in a safe, secure, and speedy manner.
Nana Ogyeahoho Yaw Gyebi II called for a closer working relationship between GCB Bank and the National House of Chiefs to help drive Ghana’s socio-economic agenda.
