  "summary": "Sammy Gyamfi, the Chief Executive Officer of GoldBod, has challenged Alexander Afenyo-Markin, the Minority Leader, to invite him to Parliament to answer questions about GoldBod's operations. According to Starr FM, Gyamfi dared Afenyo-Markin to substantiate claims linking GoldBod to a reported US$1.7bn loss.\n\nAfenyo-Markin had claimed that a state institution, presumably GoldBod, had lost money due to the Domestic Gold Purchase Programme, as reported by 3News. However, Gyamfi defended GoldBod's performance, stating that there is no accusation against the institution for the Bank of Ghana's losses, as per the Ghanaian Times.\n\nGyamfi expressed his readiness to appear before Parliament, as reported by Adom Online, and respond to allegations. He also highlighted GoldBod's achievements, including purchasing and refining over nine metric tonnes of gold in Ghana this year.",
