Amin Adam Accuses BoG of Printing Money for GoldBod

Former Finance Minister Dr. Mohammed Amin Adam has accused the Bank of Ghana (BoG) of engaging in monetary financing—specifically printing money—to pre-finance the Ghana Gold Board (GoldBod), due to the government’s failure to release budgeted funds for the initiative.
