National Democratic Congress (NDC) Spokesperson on Youth Development Julius Kwame Anthony has asserted that galamsey activities can only be solved when the New Patriotic Party (NPP) is voted out of power.
Julius Anthony made references to some comments made by the running mate of the NPP Flagbearer, Dr Mathew Opoku Prempeh alias NAPO where he promised to give back ceased excavators to galamseyers when they come into power to continue the illegal activity.
He also referred to the comment made by Dr Nana Yaw Afriyie who recently made headlines after he allegedly said that the NPP will never stop the galamsey activities.
According to Julius Anthony, President Akufo-Addo has failed to prosecute foreign nationals who were caught involved in illegal mining because he is known for seeking financial aid from these countries hence the NPP must be voted out come December 7. "Galamsey is going on in this country because the President has downed the country to the extent that even the people they catch can't be prosecuted; remember the case of Aisha Huang?
