Ghana's $1.7bn gold loss: BoG, Finance urged to speak
Wilberforce Asare of Asaase Radio urged the Bank of Ghana and the Ministry of Finance to break their silence over a reported $1.7 billion loss under the Domestic Gold Purchase Programme in 2025, as reported by the IMF. He said the matter is a national crisis involving taxpayer money and should not be left to GoldBod CEO Sammy Gyamfi to explain alone, pointing to the exchange-rate mechanism as a key concern.
