Archbishop Bonaventure Kwofie, the Metropolitan Archbishop of Accra, has alleged that a planned environmental walk by the clergy has been hijacked by political elements.

According to him, the walk, which aims to raise awareness about illegal mining, commonly known as galamsey, has been overtaken by political parties seeking electoral gains.

In a media interview, he remarked, "The Accra Archdiocese is organizing this environmental prayer walk against galamsey.

It is being hijacked by some political elements, turning it into a Catholic Bishops' Conference action, which we do not support.
