The Minister for Environment, Science, and Technology, Dr.
Murtala Mohammed, has dismissed claims that the government has failed in its fight against illegal mining (galamsey).
According to him, the National Democratic Congress (NDC) administration has been in office for only two months and has just completed appointing ministers.
Speaking on JoyNews PM Express on Monday, March 10, Dr Mohammed stated it is unfair to judge the government's performance on galamsey when the country has been dealing with the issue for the past eight years.
