The Inspector General of Police (IGP), COP Christian Tetteh Yohuno, has declared an all-out war on illegal mining, also known as “galamsey,” saying it poses a serious threat to national security and the environment.

He revealed that armed criminals, linked to illegal mining operations, have carried out brutal attacks on innocent civilians, including forest guards, without justification.
