The government's spokesperson, Felix Kwakye Ofosu, has indicated that the fight against illegal mining should be a lifelong activity.
According to him, there is no guarantee that people will stop engaging in illegal mining, so the Ghanaian wants to see a government committed to fighting the menace.
He is of the view that timelines in the fight against illegal mining are not imperative in the current circumstances. "First of all, I am not sure that a timeline is the conversation we should be having.
I think it should be a lifelong activity.
