President Akufo Addo has vowed to deal with persons within his government who may be found complicit in illegal mining activities.
The President said the government has for several years been struggling with the fight against ‘galamsey’, hence government officials cannot continue to compromise efforts against the menace.
Some government officials have been cited as people neck-deep in 'galamsey' and many CSOs have called for their prosecution as the only way to end the menace.
This morning, JoyNews' Newsfile discussed how citizens could be mobilised to end the 'galamsey' crisis since President Akufo-Addo has admitted that not much has been done by his government to end the menace.
