The Ashanti Regional Security Coordinator, Captain (Rtd.) John Kwame Jabari, has dismissed claims that National Security operatives have taken over and are illegally operating a licensed underground small-scale mine in Akatakyieso, Adansi North District.
His clarification follows a viral Facebook post by broadcast journalist Erastus Asare-Donkor questioning the role of National Security at the mining site.
Erastus Asare-Donkor stated, "Why would National Security take over a licensed, organized underground small-scale mine, drive away the workers, and ask people with pump-action guns to mine the facility?
