He made the declaration on Thursday, October 6, 2022, when he was addressing a press conference in Accra over the government’s fight against illegal mining (Galamsey).
“The saddest day in my life will be the day NDC fails to prosecute Chairman Wontumi, Ekow Awusi, and Charles Bissue for engaging in mining without a permit.
“We have enough visual evidence to prosecute these people and all the key members of the NPP who are actively engaged in the illegal menace,” he reiterated.
The legal practitioner also described President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo’s renewed commitment to fight the galamsey menace as a “mirage, scam and a lost battle.”
The outspoken politician who explained that NDC is not against mining in the country underscored that the government’s score on the fight against illegal mining is an unmitigated disaster.
However, he emphasied that the opposition party is only against illegal mining in water bodies and forest reserves.
The NDC thus called on the government to drastically deal with the people involved in such illegal activities.
