Minister in charge of Government Communications, Felix Kwakye Ofosu, has dismissed the Minority's calls for the suspension of the Acting Chief Executive Officer of the Ghana Gold Board (GoldBod), Sammy Gyamfi, describing them as politically motivated.
He argued that Sammy Gyamfi, who also serves as the National Communications Officer of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), has been a persistent critic of the Akufo-Addo administration, which explains the Minority's reaction in the 'cash gift saga'.
Sammy Gyamfi has come under public scrutiny after a viral video showed him handing dollar notes to former fetish priestess-turned-evangelist, Patricia Asiedua Asiamah, popularly known as Nana Agradaa, during a public event.
The gesture, widely criticised amid the country's economic difficulties, has raised concerns about the conduct expected of public officeholders.
