‘I never insulted Afenyo-Markin, he got the response he deserved’ – Sammy Gyamfi
Chief Executive Officer of the Ghana Gold Board (GoldBod), Sammy Gyamfi, has rejected claims that he insulted Minority Leader Alexander Afenyo-Markin during a recent exchange on GoldBod losses, insisting that his response was justified by remarks made against him.
Sammy Gyamfi, CEO of the Ghana Gold Board, has dismissed allegations that he insulted Minority Leader Alexander Afenyo-Markin during a recent discussion about GoldBod losses. Speaking on JoyNews, Gyamfi insisted that his response was justified, stating he did not insult Afenyo-Markin but was reacting to what he called "personal and unfounded allegations" about his role in GoldBod's financial affairs.
He explained that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction, justifying his response to the allegations. Gyamfi argued that Afenyo-Markin's comments went beyond normal political criticism because they sought to link him to serious wrongdoing and questioned his ability to meet IMF conditions. He believed that Afenyo-Markin's comments were motivated by malice rather than a genuine disagreement.
The CEO of Ghana Gold Board also dismissed accusations of incurring losses, claiming he should not be held responsible for financial obligations that don't pertain to him.
