Akufo-Addo not fulfilling his duty in galamsey fight – Lawyer Kwame Jantuah

Lawyer Kwame Jantuah, a senior member of the Convention People’s Party (CPP), has criticized President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo for failing to effectively tackle illegal mining (galamsey).

Speaking on Joy Prime, Jantuah called on the president to impose a ban on galamsey and small-scale mining to reset the sector.

He acknowledged the economic benefits of small-scale mining but stressed the need for a comprehensive overhaul due to the damage caused to water bodies.

He urged for a collective approach to find a sustainable way forward for mining in Ghana.
