GoldBod losses: We demand full disclosure – Former Finance Minister
“We are asking for documents that already exist, several of which the law already requires to be public,” Dr Amin Adam said.
The Minority Leader of Parliament, Osahen Alexander Afenyo-Markin, has urged for immediate action to tackle alleged GH¢22 billion losses incurred by GoldBod. In an interview with journalists, he emphasized that while the cedi's stability is commendable, it must be sustained through prudent measures. Afenyo-Markin warned against treating the issue as a mere political clash between the NPP and NDC, stating that it poses a real economic threat to Ghanaians.
He called on Parliament and the public to probe the GoldBod's operations, the gold purchase price, commissions, bonuses, and off-taker terms. He also questioned the Bank of Ghana's bullion sales, saying these are critical issues needing more scrutiny. Afenyo-Markin urged the government to address these issues, considering the fiscal constraints it faces and the need to protect the economy while sustaining the gains made in exchange-rate stability.
