The Ghana Gold Board (GoldBod) has dismissed allegations by Tano North MP, Dr Gideon Boako, claiming the institution owes the Bank of Ghana (BoG) GH¢1 billion in unpaid overdraft as false and part of a malicious smear campaign. In a statement, GoldBod stated that it has never taken any loan, overdraft or other debt instrument from the Bank of Ghana or any financial institution since its establishment.
The institution emphasized that the claim made by Dr Boako is contrived and demanded an apology and retraction. The dispute arises as the GoldBod faces scrutiny over its financial performance and reported losses associated with the Bank of Ghana's Domestic Gold Purchase Programme.
