The Member of Parliament for Assin South, Rev John Ntim Fordjour, has urged supporters of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) to demand accountability from their government appointees following a viral video involving Sammy Gyamfi, the NDC National Communications Officer cum Acting CEO of GoldBod.

The video, posted on X on May 10, 2025, showed Gyamfi handing out US dollars to preacher, Nana Agradaa, sparking widespread criticisms.

In a post on his official X account on May 11, 2025, Ntim Fordjour accused NDC appointees of “arrogantly and opulently” sharing dollars in public while allegedly stashing “millions of cocaine dollars.”

He claimed these officials, who he said “have never worked a day in their lives in any company,” are displaying ultra-expensive phones and tablets that could fund classroom blocks in their constituencies.

Ntim Fordjour further alleged that some have acquired $450,000 Range Rover Autobiographies within 120 days in office, despite a “toothless” Code of Conduct that he claims will not be enforced.

Addressing NDC supporters, Fordjour claimed they are struggling with power outages (“Dumsor”) and rising living costs, for which reason they should hold their leaders accountable.

“You worked, they’re chopping! You must demand accountability from your opulent appointees,” he stated.

The controversy follows Gyamfi’s apology on May 11, 2025, for the incident, which he described as an “act of indiscretion.”

He has since appeared at Jubilee House to explain the circumstances, in line with President John Dramani Mahama’s recently launched Code of Conduct for public officials.
