The Ministry of Lands and Natural Resources has denied claims by North Tongu MP, Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa, that President Akufo-Addo’s daughters are involved in illegal mining (galamsey).
In a statement, the Ministry described the allegations as false and politically motivated.
It clarified that Elite Minerals Company, which Ablakwa linked to the President’s family, was actually registered in 2008 and granted a mining lease in 2012 under the John Mahama administration.
The Ministry urged the public to ignore the accusations and reaffirmed its commitment to fighting *galamsey* and protecting Ghana’s natural resources.
