I never expected such betrayal from the NDC – Kwabena Marfo on party’s silence in Sammy Gyamfi dollar saga

Media personality Kwabena Marfo has expressed disappointment in the National Democratic Congress (NDC) over what he describes as the party’s abandonment of its National Communications Officer, Sammy Gyamfi, in the wake of his recent controversy.

Speaking on Neat FM on May 13, 2025, Marfo claimed that the majority of the leadership of the NDC has distanced itself from Gyamfi following the circulation of a viral video in which he is seen handing out US dollar bills to Evangelist Patricia Asiedua Oduro Koranteng, popularly known as Nana Agradaa, a self-proclaimed repented priestess.

“What surprised me yesterday is that when Sammy Gyamfi had his issues, I expected NDC members to rally behind him. But if you listen to some of the commentary and utterances from within the party, you’d be shocked,” he said.

Marfo noted that despite the Chief Executive Officer of the Ghana Gold Board’s longstanding service and loyalty to the NDC, including significant personal investments in party activities and logistics, he is now facing public scrutiny without visible support from his party.

“Sammy Gyamfi gave motorbikes to all 275 constituency offices. Even in 2020, all regional communicators received Kia Picantos. When elections were approaching, he provided pickups fully equipped with sound systems,” Marfo recalled.

He expressed dismay that such contributions are now being overlooked.

“Just look at the sacrifices he made for the party. I didn’t expect this from them. People forget too easily. So, the NDC can’t even remember the good Sammy Gyamfi has done?” he asked.
