Up till now they still owe people and they've not gotten money to pay their victims, so... we are very cautious and very careful in terms of doing business with these microfinance companies but 72 hours is a company that we've heard of from Cantonments and many other places in Accra moreover, a lot of people are testifying their good works so I don't hesitate recommending my people in Ablekuma North especially Odorkor to also come in and do business with 72 Hours and I think their lives will change" he hinted.
