Former Minister for Environment, Science, Technology, and Innovation, Prof Kwabena Frimpong-Boateng, has urged President Akufo-Addo to respond to the growing calls from various groups and labour unions to put an end to the rampant destruction of forest reserves and water bodies caused by illegal mining, commonly known as galamsey.
He emphasised the importance of addressing this environmental crisis for the benefit of the nation's future.
Professor Frimpong-Boateng stressed that the President holds the ultimate authority to take decisive action against the galamsey menace, which continues to threaten the country's natural resources.
He appealed to the President to prioritize the interests of the Ghanaian people and take the necessary steps to halt the damage.
The former minister warned that the future of the country is at serious risk if immediate measures are not taken.
