Afenyo-Markin accuses GoldBod management of ‘crass incompetence’ over alleged losses

Speaking at a Minority press conference in Parliament on Tuesday, August 18, Mr Afenyo-Markin rejected the suggestion that the reported losses could be attributed to unfavourable market conditions, arguing that gold trading does not present an inherently difficult market for a competent institution.

Minority Leader and Effutu Member of Parliament, Alexander Afenyo-Markin, has accused the management of the Ghana Gold Board (GoldBod) of gross incompetence, following claims about losses associated with its operations.

This is what happens when an untouchable few are handed the nation’s gold with no one watching,” Mr Afenyo-Markin said.
