The Minerals Commission has dismissed suggestions of arbitrary action, insisting that the decision to revoke the licence of Akonta Mining Limited was based on clear evidence of violations.
The Chief Executive Officer of the Minerals Commission, Isaac Andrew Tandoh, affirmed that the authorities revoked the mining permits after gathering substantial proof, which includes visual evidence implicating Akonta Mining Limited. "The conditions and the videos we have now are more than enough to go after the perpetrators.
The Attorney General has been advised to pursue these matters and ensure that those behind these offences are brought to book," he said on Tuesday, 22 April. "People can write letters and issue rebuttals in the newspapers; that is not something I will concern myself with.
This is just the beginning.
