Communities like Anyinase, Anyanso, Menti, Bobiam and it’s environs are noted for galamsey activities at night.
“The DCE has deliberately given this four (4) Excavators to Bismark Ofosu Asare to work at MINTI, Bobiam and Apantubuom which they only use it in the night hours and stop operation during the day.
The DCE cannot burn any excavator because he is involved in the activity here.
He is only throwing dust in the eyes of the public and the Government operatives. And also to deceive the President to reappoint him as DCE” The residents cried.
“We are rather pleading with the President to as matter of urgency remove Hon. Yaw Danso with immediate effect as he is flouting the rules of the Government with impunity which is making the people loose confidence in the Gonernment”s fight against illegal mining”. They added.
