The Military taskforce in the ongoing galamsey fight on Monday May 17, 2021 returned to the mining site of the New Patriotic Party’s National Women Organizer, Kate Gyamfua to burn mining concessions that skipped them after they visited the site earlier.
According to a report by Starr FM, the taskforce burnt a faulty excavator and a large water pumping machine which escaped their notice on Sunday when they set fire into 8 excavators, a bulldozer and dozens of water pumping machines on the same site.
Again, they burnt other excavators which were not properly burnt after their first operation at the site.
Nana Asante Boadi Yeboah, a worker at the mining site narrated to Starr News that, “because of what they did last three days we were at home when we had calls that they’ve come again, they came and had our two machines re-burnt. So far they’ve burnt about 9 to 10 machines on our site.”
“We had about 150 pumping machines, they have burnt all ..the biggest pumping machine that we use to rotate the water has also been burnt”.
