A former Chief Executive Officer of the Minerals Commission, Dr Tony Aubynn, has stated that President Akufo-Addo can stop illegal mining, also known as galamsey, if he is determined to.
According to him, the laws of Ghana clothe the President with the power to stop the illegal practice with just a public announcement. "I hope the President is listening.
The L.I that allowed mining in forest reserves needs a re-look.
The President must come and say fellow Ghanaians, no mining on water bodies.
