Ghanaian-American Archbishop, Kofi Adonteng Boateng has condemned the actions of Democracy Hub protesters who allegedly vandalized public property during their protest aimed at clamping down on illegal mining, also known as galamsey.
According to the head pastor of Divine Power House and the General Overseer of Divine Word International Ministries, while he supports the right of people to demonstrate and voice their opinions, he is against any actions that break the law.
The archbishop, who had been away from the country for a while, arrived at Kotoka International Airport on Monday, October 7, 2024, on a mission to help groom ministers of God in the country.
The preacher cum philanthropist also stated that the issue of galamsey should not be attributed solely to the ruling government but should be a collective effort. "Ghana is a democratic society, so it is good to voice your opinions, but I am not in favour of people demonstrating and committing crimes and breaking signboards.
