Worlasi (R) has joined the choruses against Sammy Gyamfi’s actions
Ghanaian musician, Worlasi, has joined the chorus of criticisms against Sammy Gyamfi, the Acting CEO of the Ghana Gold Board, following a viral video showing Gyamfi handing a wad of US dollars to controversial evangelist Patricia Oduro Koranteng, popularly known as Nana Agradaa.
In a scathing post on X, Worlasi expressed his disappointment, questioning the priorities of politicians, while ordinary citizens work hard to uplift Ghana’s image.
In his post, Worlasi pointed out the efforts of ordinary Ghanaians, like the volunteer sanitation group; the Buz Stop Boys, who work tirelessly to clean the country, stating that the money could have been given to them instead.
“Just when you start believing in someone, you get disappointed. I don’t know what it is with politicians, I don’t know whether it is money or what?
“People are out there doing things in the name of Ghana, trying to put the name of Ghana out there. The Buz Stop Boys are there cleaning the country, but you took money to give Agradaa?” he said.
The musician also directed frustration at the ruling NDC, urging them to “switch up” and use their power to foster national growth rather than engage in controversies.
“It’s painful, there are lots of talents out there. NDC, you guys need to switch up, you are in power now. Use it so we all grow and stop these things,” he added in his caption.
The video, which sparked nationwide outrage, showed Gyamfi counting dollar bills from his car before Agradaa snatched them and flaunted the cash to onlookers.
The act has been widely condemned widely, especially amid economic hardships and President Mahama’s recent Code of Conduct barring opulence by public officials .
Gyamfi has since apologised, calling it a “private act of kindness,” but critics like Worlasi remain unimpressed.
Worlasi’s remarks echo calls from civil society groups, economists, and even NDC members for Gyamfi’s dismissal, citing breaches of ethical standards .
The scandal has also drawn comparisons to past forex-related controversies, such as the Cecilia Dapaah case, further fueling public anger .
