The NPP government under President Akufo Addo has demonstrated commitment to dealing with the crisis, however, there have been some shortcomings resulting from the negligence and self-centeredness of persons entrusted with the duty of sustaining the effort in eradicating illegal mining,” Charles Bissue has shared in a press release titled; galamsey fight and NDC’s renewed attack on gov’t and my person.
The release has been issued after Sammy Gyamfi, the National Communications Officer of the NDC called for the prosecution of Charles Bissue and other NPP officials for their alleged involvement in galamsey.
Ghanaians are tired of your flowery speeches and useless rhetoric. The so-called fight against galamsey’ has been a spectacular failure and the only way to salvage it is for you to man up and finally begin to crack the whip on your errant appointees and NPP functionaries who are neckdeep in the ‘galamsey’ business.
“We demand the immediate prosecution of all NPP functionaries and NPP officials who have engaged in illegal mining such as Charles Bissue, Chairman Wontumi, the evidence is clear, Andy Owusu, Ekow Ewusi, Prof. Frimpong Boateng among others,” Sammy Gyamfi told the media at an NDC press conference on Thursday.
Expressing unhappiness over his name continually being mentioned in illegal mining
conversations, Charles Bissue is urging the government to take action.
“The government knowing all these cannot allow the NDC to continue to mislead and court negative emotions of the people against it, in this galamsey fight,” he notes in his press release.
He further proposes that to effectively fight galamsey menace in the country, the
recommendations in the IMCIM should be operationalised.
“The NPP government under President Akufo Addo has demonstrated commitment to dealing with the crisis, however, there have been some shortcomings resulting from the negligence and self-centeredness of persons entrusted with the duty of sustaining the effort in eradicating illegal mining.
