In an interview, a video of which is circulating on social media, he stated that the fight against illegal mining, popularly known as galamsey, should be left for the rest of the nation to address, and not GIHOC. ''I hope the people of GIHOC are listening.

If you like, don't come to work.

If you go on strike as a GIHOC worker, I will sack you.

It is a national concern, so let it be a national concern and not a GIHOC concern,'' he said.
