The General Secretary of the National Democratic Congress has said that, all galamsey activities will be allowed to continue. The Chief Scribe, Mr. Johnson Asiedu Nketiah who is currently aspiring to become the National Chairman of the main opposition party said the NDC won’t stop galamsey.
According to him, those who are asking whether the next administration of the NDC will do about illegal mining activities; responding to this, he said the NDC won’t stop any galamsey activity.
Mr Asiedu Nketiah, indicated noted that it is not the activity which is illegal but the methods used by those involved. What the next NDC government will do is to regulate how the mining is done in order to ensure it doesn’t have any effect on the environment. Methods which have less impact on the environment will be used.
Asiedu Nketiah on Galamsey issues – we won’t stop it
Anyone who tells you he can ban galamsey is a liar. No one can stop galamsey in this country and we in the NDC won’t galamsey if we are giving power.
This comes after the public attention is heightened on the menace of illegal mining, with the President waging war on the persons involve. Clergies and religious leaders are also calling for the government to place ban on all mining activities; whether licensed or unlicensed.
Despite these, the General Secretary has vowed that the next NDC government won’t galamsey, rather would focus more on how the activities are done. This, he believe will minimize if not stop the impact it has on the environment.
