In a Facebook post on May 1, 2024, Dr. Nduom questioned the need for a nationwide tour, emphasizing the impact of panic withdrawals and state-induced liquidity crises on indigenous Ghanaian banks.
Another post announced the forthcoming "#BringBackGNBank" tour, where the bank's story will be directly shared with the public to gauge support for its revival.
Dr. Nduom also called for community involvement in cleaning and revitalizing GN Bank's branches, citing locations such as Wulensi, Wa, Widana, Daman, Kwame Danso, Kyekyewere, Gwollu, and Tsito.

The nationwide campaign reflects Dr. Nduom's determination to engage with communities and advocate for the revival of GN Bank amidst ongoing legal battles.
