Kwaku Ansah-Asare, a former Director of the Ghana School of Law, has advised the Organised Labour to dismiss President 's plea to suspend their planned nationwide strike against illegal mining.

He expressed dismay concerning the president's mode of addressing the issue of galamsey menace, however, he encouraged them to go ahead with the planned protest. "He has not been sincere.

You will not keep any promise that you give within the next eight weeks.

So, as far as I am concerned, Organised Labour should proceed with the timetable," he said.
