Sammy Gyamfi the Acting Chief Executive Officer of the Ghana Gold Board has broken his silence on a video that has gone viral of him gifting fetish priestess now pastor Patricia Asiedua, commonly known as Nana Agradaa some huge sums of dollars.
According to Sammy Gyamfi, the dollars gifted to Nana Agradaa are his daily and life-long custom of lending to people in need.
In the viral video shared on social media platform X Sammy Gyamfi was spotted standing beside his white Range Rover, taking a photo with Nana Agradaa.
After a brief conversation between the two Sammy Gyamfi proceeded to sit in his car.
Sammy Gyamfi in the vehicle was seen counting several notes of US dollars.
Nana Agradaa upon seeing Sammy Gyamfi count the dollars insisted that he hand over all the notes instead of giving her just some.
She later grabbed all the money from his hands and, walking away, flaunted the huge sums of US dollars to bystanders, saying, “I have taken dollars from Sammy Gyamfi.”
Sammy Gyamfi in his apology to Ghanaians wrote, “ Folks, I have taken notice of the wave of criticisms against my person in the last 24 hours.
To clarify, this was simply a kind gesture to a fellow human being, in line with my daily and life-long custom of lending a helping hand to people in need.
I sincerely thought that I was doing this act of kindness in private, and never imagined that same could find its way into the public space. That is unfortunate and regrettable”.
He added, “ I must say that, I understand the uproar that this gesture has generated, particularly from comrades who are sincerely hurt by same. To all such comrades, I AM SINCERELY SORRY for this unfortunate act of indiscretion. I respect and appreciate your views.
My profound appreciation goes to all those who have reached out to counsel and encourage me. I’m most grateful for your solidarity”.
Meanwhile, the video has sparked controversy among Ghanaians which some saying, “Herh @SammyGyamfi_don’t be stupid ok .. Some of u guys kraaa wat dey wrong wana ?? U should be fucking ashamed and u should resign by now”.
Another wrote, “@SammyGyamfi_what work did this woman do for you that called for the payment of dollars in public.Note that the office you hold is very sensitive for you to be doing this.
One X user also stated, “We are here to cook NPP or NDC. Nobody will take Ghana for granted not Sammy Gyamfi or whoever the fuck. Whatever he does personally is his business. He gets mind dey share dollars cool hopefully he doesn’t cross any line. Me ka no se Banku”.
Another wrote, “@JDMahama, Sammy Gyamfi just crossed a shocking line—openly sharing dollars on the street. If your words are to mean anything, respectfully or not, he must be shown the exit. Anything less makes a mockery of your leadership”.
Additionally, another Ghanaian stated, “I’m very disappointed in you boss. How can be doing this in public with cameras all over you? Come to branch basis and see how the grassroots are suffering but you have the guts to do this. What contribution did Agradaa offer for our 2024 election victory”.
