Director of Communications for the Bawumia campaign, Dennis Miracles Aboagye has once again accused the National Democratic Congress (NDC) of disturbing the government’s fight against illegal small-scale mining (galamsey).
He recounted that whereas the government was fighting galamsey, NDC officials campaigned against the New Patriotic Party (NPP) using the galamsey as a political tool.
“If the issue of galamsey can be solved easily, why didn’t the NDC solve it? The galamsey we are seeing now started under NDC.
Speaking on the Next Chapter, a television broadcast that talks about the achievements of the ruling party NPP , Miracles Aboagye said “It has become evidently clear that, one of the key enablers of the Galamsey menace in Ghana is the NDC.
He added “The sad part of this, is how they come to the public to call our government and accuse government of inability to end this menace, and then they rush to the galamsey sites to encourage them not to stop galamsey.
Truly, we have challenges and problems as a country, but it’s becoming increasingly obvious that, one of Ghana’s biggest problem, is the NDC. Unfortunately, we have a democracy and can’t do anything other than managing them.
Vote against the NDC, they are key enablers of Galamsey, they are dishonest and insincere and have no clear plan to deal with this menace other than assure the people of allowing them to even engage more in this illegality.”
He further indicated that his flagbearer Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia has outlined a clear plan for handling this situation by channeling the energies of the people into safe and appropriate mining.
His comments come in the wake of the blame game between the National Democratic Congress (NDC) and the New Patritoc Party over the galamsey menace.
