Era of impunity over; illegal mining financiers will be pursued without fear or favour – Lands Minister

The Minister for Lands and Natural Resources, Emmanuel Armah-Kofi Buah, has declared an end to impunity in the country's fight against illegal mining, warning that government will relentlessly pursue every individual, financier and criminal syndicate responsible for the destruction of Ghana's environment.

He stressed, however, that the fight against illegal mining cannot be won by government alone, describing it as a national responsibility that requires the collective effort of all Ghanaians.

Government will continue to pursue every individual, every financier, and every criminal syndicate that profits from the destruction of our environment.
