  "account": "The New Patriotic Party (NPP) has expressed full support for the Minority Caucus' call for a transparent investigation into the reported GH¢22 billion losses incurred by the Ghana Gold Board (GoldBod) under the Domestic Gold Purchase Programme (DGPP). Speaking at a press conference in Accra, Henry Nana Boakye, the NPP's National Organiser, emphasized that public officials are accountable for every resource entrusted to them. Boakye, representing the Minority Caucus, vowed to use every parliamentary procedure available to seek full answers and prevent future occurrences. The party accused the National Democratic Congress (NDC) government of attempting to divert attention from the losses through attacks on the Minority and its leader, Alexander Afenyo-Markin. The NPP also questioned whether the reported US$1.7 billion losses, equivalent to GH¢22 billion, were due to foreign exchange, pricing differences, or management decisions. They urged authorities to provide clear information on gold sourcing, purchasing systems, and measures to ensure legitimate gold trade.",
