President Akufo-Addo has been labeled as being complicit in the fight against illegal mining, otherwise known as ‘galamsey’.

President of the University Teachers Association of Ghana (UTAG) at the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST), Prof Eric Abavare, made this known in an interview on JoyNews’ AM Show.

According to him, the president instead of prosecuting appointees and persons in his government involved in galamsey, has taken it upon himself to be their clearing agent.

“That man is a big liar. I am sad because I have to say this on air. Once upon a time, when issues of Prof Frimpong Manso, the former Minister of Environment was seizing people’s excavators, the president made us believe he was doing the wrong thing, but today I believe him.”

Professor Abavare indicated that president Akufo-Addo has all the powers within the confines of the law to fight galamsey but has done otherwise. “Nana Addo has all the powers to stop galamsey if he wants to. The point is that he doesn’t want to,” he added. “He has all it takes to stop galamsey now… If they are not willing to solve the problem, they must not be in office,” he stated.

“If the president really wants to solve it, he will say that from now on he does not want to see any earthmoving machine on our road anywhere. That statement alone will suffice,” he added.
