In a striking and direct call that many politicians may shy away from, Hassan Ayariga, founder of the All People’s Congress (APC), has challenged the Asantehene, Otumfuo Osei Tutu II, to take decisive action against the illegal mining (galamsey) crisis in the Ashanti Region. Ayariga’s statement, which directly places the responsibility for halting the environmental destruction on the Asantehene’s shoulders, has stirred significant attention, as few political figures have dared to speak so candidly on the role of the Ashanti monarchy in this matter.

Ayariga, speaking to Oyerepa Online, did not hold back in asserting that Otumfuo, rather than the President or other state authorities, is the one with the true power to stop galamsey in the region. “There is only one person in Ghana who can stop illegal mining, and that person is the Asantehene,” Ayariga declared. “The people of Ashanti respect their King more than they respect the President because their King is for life. If the Asantehene says, stop galamsey, everything will stop.”

While many politicians avoid directly challenging traditional leaders, especially those with the stature of Otumfuo, Ayariga’s bold message cuts through the usual rhetoric. He pointed out that no mining company can operate in the Ashanti Region without the blessing of the Asantehene. “Nobody, no mining company can mine in the Ashanti Region without the authority of Asantehene. That company dares not,” he stated, underscoring the immense influence Otumfuo wields.

Ayariga’s challenge is clear: if the Asantehene wishes to protect his lands, his people, and future generations from the devastating impact of illegal mining, he needs to take a firm stand. “The King and his people must protect their country because their children and grandchildren will suffer the consequences of this menace,” Ayariga warned, noting that water bodies, farmlands, and cocoa plantations are being destroyed at an alarming rate. He urged Otumfuo to step in and “make that call to stop galamsey.”

This bold statement sets Ayariga apart from many political figures who may hesitate to address such sensitive issues directly with traditional authorities. By calling on Otumfuo to use his significant influence to lead the charge against illegal mining, Ayariga has positioned himself as a voice unafraid to address the critical challenges facing the Ashanti Region and the nation as a whole.
