Ghanaian media personality, Samuel Attah-Mensah, also known as ‘Sammens’, has chastised the Deputy Minister of Lands and Natural Resources, Mireku Duker for making an “ignorant” statement opposing calls for a ban on illegal mining activities.

George Mireku Duker who doubles as the Campaign Coordinator for Mining Communities for the Bawumia Campaign team at the commissioning of the Meretweso Community Mining Scheme in the Upper Denkyira East Municipality of the Central Region, said it will be a misplaced priority on the part of government if it places a ban on small scale mining.

“Personally I am against the call for the ban on mining generally. You can’t ban mining. Why must you ban mining,” he stated.

Reacting to the minister’s statement on Citi FM, the visible peeved media professional said, “I have been in this cycle…private media thing for almost 3 decades and I have never witnessed any occasion where Civil Society Organization’s (CSOs), Associations, Professional Bodies, Faith Based Institutions have come together with this kind of uproar over something that is happening in this country and the deputy minister says what, the call is misguided?

His statement is misguided, ignorant and heavily incompetent. That guy should be dismissed today today today. If anybody is listening that the call is misguided. That we are calling for a temporary ban and you’re asking us how we can ban it, are you serious?”

Sammens added that politicians and ministers think they are more sensible than the ordinary Ghanaian when they assume office, “and that is the problem.”

To him, the deputy minister displayed his ignorance with the statement he made, and should not be taken serious.

Sammens further championed calls for a temporal ban to mining activities in Ghana, re-echoing calls made already by the Catholic Bishops Conference, Ghana Pentecostal Council, Academy of Arts and Sciences, Ghana Medical Association (GMA) and other groups.
