The Ghana Gold Board (GoldBod) has suspended the license of NK Benark Enterprise, a licensed Tier 2 gold buyer, and ordered the immediate closure of all its trading shops across the country.
In a statement issued on Tuesday, September 16, 2025, GoldBod said the action follows the company’s alleged complicity in several gold-related offenses. The sole proprietor of the business, Bernard Nkrumah, has since been arrested and is facing prosecution before the High Court.
The Board warned all licensed traders, miners, and the general public to desist from engaging in any gold transactions with NK Benark Enterprise.
GoldBod reaffirmed its commitment to enforcing laws and regulations in the gold trading sector, stressing that the move was taken in the interest of accountability and transparency.
