If Afenyo-Markin Says It Was Not Personal, Mine Wasn’t Either— Sammy Gyamfi Speaks, Ghanaians React

According to recent reports from X, Sammy Gyamfi has responded to recent comments made by Minority Leader Alexander Afenyo-Markin, clarifying that he harbors no personal animosity toward the NPP lawmaker.

Speaking during a segment on Ekosiisen, Gyamfi stated that if Afenyo-Markin maintains his initial remarks were not intended as a personal attack, he is willing to accept that explanation in good faith. He emphasized that his own counter-response was guided by the same principle, explaining that he was simply responding to public assertions previously made about him by the Minority Leader.

The statement has triggered lively debate across social media platforms. Supporters commended Gyamfi’s composed, measured tone, describing his approach as articulate and mature. Conversely, critics questioned why he revisited the feud after earlier hinting that he would refrain from further public commentary on the matter.

Other online commentators shifted focus toward lingering extortion allegations linked to the political debate, arguing that the controversy ought to be addressed through anti-corruption bodies or formal court proceedings rather than media exchanges. Some observers also pointed out a distinction in messaging, noting that while Afenyo-Markin did not explicitly name individuals in his earlier comments, Gyamfi directly named and criticized the Minority Leader.

Despite the ongoing public discourse, the latest exchange suggests a mutual willingness to de-escalate tensions and move past the controversy. However, political analysts and social media users remain divided on whether this truce will endure or if legal actions will ultimately follow.
