Nii Ayi-Bontey said the company left Agona Swedru in 2013 as a result of administrative and other lapses beyond their control.

He said Jorbies Microfinance Company had never abandoned their customers adding that it would be re-branded and come back to work in the area to improve the local economy.

The Managing Director was arrested by the Agona Swedru Divisional Command of the Bureau of National Investigations after various reports were lodged with the Command by disappointed customers.

The Jorbies Microfinance Company owed 25,000 Ghana cedis to its numerous customers but only GH¢18,000 had been paid to the 58 customers.

The Legal Counsel said it was not the intention of the company to cheat the traders and other investors in and around Agona Swedru.
