She highlighted that the card has played a crucial role in minimizing theft within the banking sector, as it contains detailed information about its holder, making it difficult for imposters to steal money from bank accounts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<div class=\"ose-youtube ose-uid-5a811ff6af445ebd61b394eadf8718f1 ose-embedpress-responsive\" style=\"width:400px; height:400px; max-height:400px; max-width:100%; display:inline-block;\" data-embed-type=\"Youtube\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" allowFullScreen=\"true\" width=\"400\" height=\"400\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/V6jtSIAv_70?feature=oembed&color=red&rel=0&controls=1&start=&end=&fs=0&iv_load_policy=0&autoplay=0&mute=0&modestbranding=0&cc_load_policy=1&playsinline=1\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; encrypted-media;accelerometer;autoplay;clipboard-write;gyroscope;picture-in-picture clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen referrerpolicy=\"origin\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;Previously, imposters could easily loot people&#8217;s money at banks. However, since the introduction of the Ghana Card, such incidents have become a thing of the past,&#8221; she explained.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Mrs. Kwarteng also addressed the issue of panic withdrawals during election years, which often stem from fear. She urged Ghanaians to refrain from such actions, assuring them that Ghana will continue to enjoy peace and harmony.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Ghana Card, since its inception, has been applauded for its role in enhancing security and streamlining operations in various sectors, reflecting positively on the current administration&#8217;s efforts to improve national identification and economic stability.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Abuakwa, Kumasi \u2013 The introduction of the National Identification Card, known as the Ghana Card, by the Nana Addo\/Bawumia government has significantly reduced theft in the banking sector, according to Fosuah Antwi Kwarteng, the General Manageress of the Liberty Assemblies of God Co-operative Savings and Social Society Limited (AGASSCO).
