Recounting on his tough days and the immediate period before his bank collapsed, Kofi Amoabeng narrated how he drank some bottles of alcoholic drinks before facing some stubborn clients who have refused to pay back their loans.
He said;
“One thing I used to do is that if you don’t come to redeem yourself and I come to your house to meet your absence, I will search for where they sell Guinness and strategically sit there watching your gate. If you’re lucky and I drink one or two, then it means I am not drank yet, but if you keep long and I gulp about four or five bottles, then you are in trouble when I find you”
