We owe it to helicopter crash victims to end galamsey – Awula Serwah

Speaking on JoyNews’ The Pulse on Thursday, August 6, as Ghana marked the first anniversary of the crash that claimed eight lives, Ms Serwah described illegal mining as an “ongoing ecocide”.

Ms Serwah accused some traditional leaders, political authorities and police commanders of looking on while illegal mining continued with impunity.

Coordinator of Eco-Conscious Citizens, Awula Serwah, has called for decisive action against illegal mining, arguing that Ghana owes it to the victims of the August 6 helicopter crash and everyone else who has died because of the menace.
