..To fight corruption tag on himself, family and gov’t
President Nana Akufo-Addo, on Monday, ignored calls to reassure the nation about his commitment to fight against illegal mining popularly called “Galamsey” on a platform provided him by the Ghana Bar Association (GBA), and rather focused on the defence of himself and his family on allegations of corruption.
Several personalities, institutions and trade unions, have in recent days waded into the menace of galamsey in the country, which has left water bodies polluted, forest covers depleted, 1.2 million hectres of farmlands ravaged, public and private properties razed down and lives lost.
