GoldBod CEO dragged to OSP, CHRAJ
Earlier, the Minority Caucus in Parliament had petitioned the Special Prosecutor, the Commission on Human Rights and Administrative Justice (CHRAJ), and the Criminal Investigations Department (CID) to investigate a contract awarded for the renovation of the old Bank of Ghana office.
According to them, the contract awarded by the Ghana Gold Board (GoldBod), helmed by Sammy Gyamfi, to the Deputy Chief of Staff, Stan Dogbe, is fraught with irregularities and contravenes established procurement processes.
Speaking to the press on behalf of the Minority Caucus on Tuesday, March 24, 2026, the MP for Odotobri, Anthony Mmieh, said the matter must be probed to ensure accountability.
“We presented petitions to these three agencies or organisations to conduct an immediate investigation into the contract that has been awarded to Stan Dogbe by the Gold Board. We are of the view that there were several irregularities; the laws governing the awarding of contracts were not followed," he stated.
“It is even likely that this contract would cause financial loss to the government. And so our petition simply says that this entire contract should be investigated for us to know what actually went on. And if there were any irregularities, the law should take its course. We expect the law to take its course," he further stated.

In a report sighted on Citi News, he added that no proper procurement process would allow sole-sourcing, suggesting that due diligence was sidestepped in the award of the office renovation contract to Stan Dogbe.
Mmieh further disclosed that the investigative bodies have all acknowledged receipt of their petition.
He consequently urged them to act immediately on it to bring out the facts relative to the award of the contract.
Sammy to hold meetings with NDC supporters

The weekly engagement began on Friday, March 13, 2026, and will allow party members to directly present their concerns to him.
The initiative comes amid growing discontent among some supporters who feel neglected after the 2024 general election victory.
