I resigned five months ago – BoG Governor Asiama explains GoldBod Board exit

Bank of Ghana Governor Dr Johnson Asiama has resigned from the Board of Directors of the Ghana Gold Board (GoldBod) about five months ago, as reported by Joy Business. This move comes after concerns raised by the New Patriotic Party (NPP) over his membership on the board and potential conflicts of interest. The Ghana Gold Board Act, 2025 (Act 1140), does not necessitate the Bank of Ghana Governor's personal presence on the GoldBod Board, stated Dr Asiama, as the legislation allows for the central bank to be represented by either the Governor or another Bank of Ghana official of the required rank.
