Peter Boamah Otokunor, a deputy general secretary of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), has charged government to show more commitment in ending galamsey.
Speaking on Okay FM’s ‘Ade Akye Abia’ program, he bemoaned the government’s failed fight against the menace and urged them to fall upon the NDC if they need any help.
“When the NPP government wanted to retain power, they promised to fight galamsey and even went ahead to set a task force which has failed woefully in tackling this illegal mining menace.
“This government has clearly lost the galamsey fight, but they are behaving as if they are on top of their game,” he said
“If this government lacks ideas to fight this menace, they should contact us (NDC) or just set up a committee to go through the NDCs manifesto for proposals,” Otukonor added.
