Former Forestry Commission official and governance advocate, Rev. Charles Owusu, has expressed concern over President John Mahama’s approach to fighting illegal mining, warning that any failure on his part to uproot the menace will be deeply disappointing given his experience in office. Speaking on Adom FM’s Dwaso Nsem on Tuesday, April 29, Rev. Owusu described illegal mining—commonly referred to as galamsey—as a crisis that transcends politics and demands firm, immediate, and non-partisan action.
