Lawuratu Musah-Saaka (L) has slammed Sammy Gyamfi
New Patriotic Party (NPP) communicator, Lawuratu Musah-Saaka, has lashed out at the National Communications Officer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Sammy Gyamfi, following a controversial cash gift he gave to Evangelist Mama Pat (popularly known as Agradaa), in US dollars.
Musah-Saaka, a vocal member of the NPP, expressed her disapproval of Gyamfi’s actions, which she claimed went against the values and standards that both the NDC executive and his political party have advocated for.
In a public statement, she accused Sammy Gyamfi of hypocrisy, stating that his actions seemed to contradict the very principles he and the NDC often promote.
“He who lives by the sword dies by the sword. ‘Karma’ has caught up with him”, she indicated.
She said this on Metro TV’S Good Morning Ghana on May 12, 2025, and monitored by GhanaWeb.
Musah-Saaka’s critique centered on the use of foreign currency for the transaction which was reportedly given to Agradaa, in US dollars.
She questioned why Gyamfi, a public figure, would choose to conduct such a transaction in foreign currency rather than using the local currency, the Ghana cedi, which is the legal tender in the country.
This follows the emergence of a video showing Gyamfi handing out several dollar notes to popular self-styled evangelist, Patricia Koranteng, widely known as Nana Agradaa.
The footage, which has gone viral on social media, has sparked public outrage and raised questions about the conduct of government officials in the management of public resources.
Sammy Gyamfi has since issued an apology for his actions, but critics say the gesture is not enough.
He was also invited by the Chief of Staff, Julius Debrah, to explain the circumstances under which he gifted dollars to Nana Agradaa.
