Lands Minister Emmanuel Armah-Kofi Buah has allayed fears of job losses following the botched licence renewal of the Abosso Gold Fields Damang Mines.
He made this known during a visit to the firm and pointed out the importance of the workers to the survival of the company.
The government has decided to take over the mine due to lease renewal issues, sparking concerns about job security. "Today, we had to come to engage the workers of the Gold Fields Damang Mines to assure them of His Excellency, President Mahama's commitment to ensure that even in this transitional period their jobs will be guaranteed.
We are going to work with them to ensure the safety and sanctity of the plants and operations here," he stated.
