NPP MPs summon Afenyo-Markin today over Sammy Gyamfi’s allegations

The New Patriotic Party (NPP) has summoned Minority Leader Alexander Afenyo-Markin for questioning regarding allegations made by GoldBod CEO Sammy Gyamfi, according to senior MPs. The meeting is set to take place today, August 24, as concerns rise among prominent NPP members following Gyamfi's comments about losses at GoldBod. Afenyo-Markin has denied the allegations, initially threatening legal action over what he called defamatory attacks, including being labeled an "extortionist."

However, he later appeared to soften his stance when asked if he would pursue Gyamfi legally. Despite this, senior MPs remain unconvinced, with a caucus meeting expected to address the matter before Parliament's sitting.
