Vice President of IMANI Africa, Bright Simons has raised a reg flag over the candidature of Mrs. Efua Ghartey for her involvement in the recently established of the Royal Gold Refinery in Ghana.
“One contender who has run a very slick campaign interests me in another way. This top lawyer is also a major legal architect of the Royal Ghana Gold Refinery’s set up and serves as a Director.” – Bright Semons wrote on his twitter account
“As some readers know, I have challenged the PMMC, Bank of Ghana, & Ministry of Natural Resources on their claim that an obscure Indian company called Rosy Royal provided millions of dollars to finance the gold refinery and is thus entitled to 80% ownership. I insist that they must be fronting the 80% equity for someone else.” – Mr. Simons added
Though Mr. Bright Simons did not mention the former Justice Minister Joe Ghartey wife’s in his post, Awake News sources revealed that that the only top lawyer involved in the establishment of the questionable Royal Gold Refinery is Mrs. Efua Ghartey who is also contesting for the President of the Ghana Bar Association. Collaborating this, Mr. Simons also attached picture of news report on Mrs. Ghartey’s declaration to contest for the GBA President position
The Royal Gold Refinery transition that gave an Indian firm, Rosy Royal a stagring 80% stake many believed is the introduction of the controversial corruption-redden Agyapa deal through the backdoor.
Bright Simon who have been an advocate for audit of the Royal Gold Refinery deal also reveled that the Indian’s Rosy Royal has no track record in gold refinery and is a stone quarry in India.

Ghana’s general elections will be held in December this year to choose a new President. But there is another exciting election on the way.
I’m told that lawyers in Ghana will choose a President for the Bar Association at their annual conference to be held a week from now.
One contender who has run a very slick campaign interests me in another way. This top lawyer is also a major legal architect of the Royal Ghana Gold Refinery’s set up and serves as a Director.
As some readers know, I have challenged the PMMC, Bank of Ghana, & Ministry of Natural Resources on their claim that an obscure Indian company called Rosy Royal provided millions of dollars to finance the gold refinery and is thus entitled to 80% ownership. I insist that they must be fronting the 80% equity for someone else.
During the Bar elections, can candidates be asked questions? Any lawyer going to Kumasi who can ask the said GBA presidential candidate some questions on our behalf about what she knows about Rosy Royal and Royal Ghana Gold Refinery? We just need a few answers about a few things.
