Cautious approach needed on galamsey remarks - Rev. Opuni-Frimpong

Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on Whatsapp

Former General Secretary of the Christian Council, Rev. Dr. Kwabena Opuni-Frimpong, is cautioning politicians to tread carefully with their public statements on illegal mining, also known as galamsey. He believes some of their comments may inadvertently justify this harmful practice, which has devastating effects on river bodies, water supply, and the environment.

Rev. Opuni-Frimpong specifically criticized government officials for their contradictory remarks, warning that these mixed signals may be perceived as dismissive of public concerns. This comes after Sulemanu Koney, CEO of the Ghana Chamber of Mines, highlighted the mining sector’s crucial role in stabilizing the local currency.

Despite mounting pressure from environmental groups and the public, some politicians, including NPP MP Dr. Ayew Afriyie, have stated that the government has no plans to ban small scale mining. In response, Rev. Opuni-Frimpong, has urged the public to continue protesting and maintain pressure on the government to address the issue.

He emphasized the need for collective action, particularly from organizations like the University Teachers Association of Ghana (UTAG), to ensure the government takes concerns seriously.
