The Asantehene, Otumfuo Osei Tutu II, has opined that little has been achieved despite the efforts in place to fight galamsey.
The traditional ruler is also questioning the relevance of District and Municipal Security Councils over their failure to fight illegal mining.
Speaking at a meeting with the new US Ambassador to Ghana at the Manhyia Palace, he described the efforts by the government as poor.
“At the district level, we have the political administration, District Chief Executive, and the Security Council. Are they all saying that they are unaware of the activities of these galamseyers? If they are unable to detect and stop the operation of these galamseyers then they are unworthy to be there, it is as simple as that.”
“We should have brought finality to this issue by now. The President had even put his presidency on the line, and yet this is going on. To me, something is wrong somewhere.”
