A Fond Farewell to a Founding Leader
The conference paid tribute to our devoted outgoing Chairman, Brother Ismail Kamil, who has been with UNICOF since its inception. His vital role in unionizing GCB staff will forever be remembered, and we thank him for his immense service and dedication.

Government and Management Engage with Union Priorities
We were honored to host key stakeholders, including the Deputy Finance Minister, Hon. Thomas Nyarko Ampem, and GCB’s Managing Director, Mr. Farihan Alhassan. The Minister assured the bank of government policies aimed at supporting local businesses. The MD also addressed the union directly, reaffirming management’s commitment to capacity-building initiatives, a key area of interest for our members.
