Business News of Friday, 6 February 2026Source: www.ghanaweb.comA group calling itself the Concerned Citizens of Ghana has withdrawn a petition it earlier filed with state investigative bodies over the alleged unlawful involvement of an unlicensed and investigated individual in Ghana’s GoldBod operations. In a document sighted by GhanaWeb, the group explained that the decision to withdraw the petition follows recent information it has received on the matter. In that petition, the citizens raised what they described as “grave concerns” about the activities of Roger Frimpong Kwakye. “How does an individual under serious criminal investigation, including matters relating to financial loss to the State, meet the fit-and-proper standard required to participate, influence, and shape GoldBod operations?” the petition asks. They also demanded the suspension of any individual or entity operating within GoldBod without the required licence or employment status under the Act.
