The residents of Esaase, a farming community in the Juaben Municipality of the Ashanti Region, have united to oppose mining activities near their iconic waterfall, citing concerns over environmental degradation and water pollution.
The decision comes in response to reports that individuals approached the community to discuss potential mining operations in the area.
The residents have vowed to do everything possible to protect the waterfalls, emphasizing that mining activities could destroy the tourist site.
In an interview with OTEC News reporter Kwame Agyenim Boateng on Monday, community members expressed their determination to safeguard the site.
