“News on my wealth has been grossly exaggerated. But let me just say this that I will, my father will be turning in his grave if he thought that I will be defined by how much I am worth “in monetary terms”. How much is Sam Jonah’s worth? One because I don’t have that level of wealth,” he explained.<\/p>\n Mr Jonah, however, mentioned that he would like to be defined by what he stands for and not his wealth.<\/p>\n “I would like to be defined by what I stand for. I think my worth will come in values that I hold and the principles that I hold. I would rather want to be defined by that than pounds and cedis and pesewas. I think it’s a tragedy people want to be associated with. I mean the others who love that. Unfortunately, I don’t. More importantly, I just feel, it is, I think, it’s not something that you ought to be proud of. That you are defined by what people think you are worth, no,” he said.<\/p>\n Sir Sam Jonah is a Ghanaian businessman and the Chancellor of the University of Cape Coast, Ghana.<\/p>\n He joined the Ashanti Goldfields Corporation in 1979 and later became the Chief Executive Officer.
