Galamsey is a manifestation of corruption – Inusah Fuseini

A former Ranking Member on the Constitutional, Legal and Parliamentary Affairs Committee of Parliament, Inusah Fuseini, says illegal mining activities in the country are a result of the corrupt actions of the leaders.

According to him, both corruption and illegal mining require equal attention in eradicating them.

He explained that illegal mining needs to be confronted as “a full enemy” because the activity threatens all aspects of the economy.

Ghana’s issue of illegal mining activities seems to be on the rise despite several calls on the government to help fight against it.

Mr Fuseini lamented that towns such as Obuase and Kibi where illegal mining activities are taking place currently are suffering the consequences

“Anybody who visits hospitals in the mining areas will be left in no doubt that we have to do something against galamsey
