The Concerned Small Scale Miners Association (CSSMA) has praised the leadership of Sammy Gyamfi, citing what it describes as strong and effective management of GoldBod in line with President John Dramani Mahama’s vision for Ghana’s gold sector.
In a statement, the association said GoldBod was established to introduce structure, fairness, and national value into small-scale and artisanal gold mining, adding that Mr. Gyamfi’s leadership is helping turn that vision into reality.
“Under the leadership of Mr. Gyamfi, this vision is steadily becoming a reality,” the association noted, pointing to improved engagement between miners and the state.
CSSMA said sustained consultations and openness under the current GoldBod leadership have rebuilt confidence among small-scale miners and ensured that policies reflect conditions on the ground.
The association also commended GoldBod’s pricing framework, describing it as fair and transparent. According to CSSMA, the approach has improved miner incomes and reduced exploitation by middlemen.
“GoldBod’s operations under Mr. Gyamfi have contributed meaningfully to Ghana’s foreign exchange earnings,” the statement said, adding that the initiative has helped ease inflationary pressures and strengthen macroeconomic stability.
CSSMA reaffirmed its support for Mr. Gyamfi and pledged continued collaboration to deliver a regulated and nationally beneficial gold sector.
