The apology comes after Afenyo-Markin filed defamation lawsuits against GoldBod CEO Sammy Gyamfi, NEIP CEO Eric Adjei, Multimedia Group Limited, and Peace FM.
Announcing the legal action in Parliament on Monday, August 24, 2026, Afenyo-Markin said writs had been filed in two separate cases, one against Gyamfi and Multimedia Group Limited at the Accra High Court, and another against Eric Adjei and Peace FM at the Achimota Circuit Court.
He described the move as taking "high moral ground" in the face of the extortion allegations levelled against him, expressing confidence the courts would determine the matter appropriately.
Sefa Kayi apologises to Afenyo-Markin on air
Speaking directly to the Minority Leader on his show, Sefa Kayi acknowledged that Afenyo-Markin had a valid grievance over how the matter was handled on his platform. He said:
"I believe he (Afenyo) has a very good point, and so, Afenyo, I apologise to you for that... let's let bygones be bygones."
The dispute stems from Afenyo-Markin's criticism of the Domestic Gold Purchase Programme and a reported $1.7 billion loss recorded by the Bank of Ghana in 2025 under the scheme, with tensions escalating after Sammy Gyamfi labelled Afenyo-Markin an "extortionist" in response to his demands for accountability.
Eric Adjei had previously appeared on Kokrokoo on August 21, 2026, weighing in on the saga and telling Sefa Kayi how painful it was to have his own reputation attacked, remarks that specifically drew Peace FM and Sefa Kayi's platform into Afenyo-Markin's lawsuit.
Kevin Taylor claims to expose reason behind lawsuit
Following Afenyo-Markin's decision to sue, media personality Kevin Taylor claimed to expose the real story behind the move.
Speaking on his show, With All Due Respect, Taylor alleged that Afenyo-Markin had earlier stated in an interview that he had no intention of suing Gyamfi, before changing his position following a meeting with Dr Mahamudu Bawumia.
According to Taylor, Bawumia gave Afenyo-Markin a direct ultimatum:
"Either he sues Sammy Gyamfi or by Thursday they announce a new minority leader."
Kevin Taylor's claim on Afenyo-Markin is below.
