I’m not intimidated by threats, criticism – Sammy Gyamfi

Sammy Gyamfi, CEO of the Ghana Gold Board (GoldBod), stated during a question-and-answer session that he is not intimidated by criticism or threats related to his work. The CEO made these remarks on August 19, 2026, in response to a question about his growing nervousness in the face of mounting attacks. Mr. Gyamfi dismissed some of the statements directed at him as reckless and lacking substance, describing them more as comic relief than serious threats.

He criticized the decline in the quality of parliamentary debate, comparing the current Minority Leader, Alexander Afenyo-Markin, to past holders of the position who were known for their depth, substance, and commanding contributions. Mr. Gyamfi accused Afenyo-Markin of lowering the standard through noisy and poorly researched commentary.

Despite the criticism and perceived attempts to intimidate him, Gyamfi expressed his readiness to face any consequences arising from his work, stating that his actions were motivated by a commitment to national service rather than personal or political considerations.
