1 min read

Ghana’s Minority Leader and Member of Parliament for Effutu, Alexander Afenyo-Markin, has raised critical concerns regarding the operations of the Ghana Gold Board (GoldBod), cautioning that the institution could soon find itself at the center of a significant scandal.

Speaking on the agency's current trajectory, Afenyo-Markin urged GoldBod’s leadership not to grow complacent, hinting that key operational details remain hidden from the public eye.

"GoldBod is a massive scandal waiting to break," Afenyo-Markin warned. "There are details we are aware of that they do not realize we know. They need to tread very carefully." he stated

​His caution follows details emerging from an International Monetary Fund (IMF) report detailing severe financial losses under the Bank of Ghana’s Domestic Gold Purchase Programme an initiative executed through GoldBod.
