I Give You 1 Month To Stop Galamsey Or I Seize My Lands – Dormaahene Warns Govt

The President of the Bono Regional House of Chiefs, Osagyefo Oseadeyo Agyemang Badu II, has charged government to put a stop to all illegal mining (galamsey) activities in Ghana.

The Dormaahene issued a one-month ultimatum to the President and his government, warning if they fail to clamp down on this mining menace, he will seize their lands.

“We’re giving this incumbent government one month to use legal means to stop people involved in this galamsey. The government should deploy Police and soldiers into the forests to stop them.

“If the government fails to do this, the land is ours, we will just reclaim it and we won’t allow any sort of mining to take place”, Osagyefo Agyemang Badu II, who doubles a High Court Judge, served this notice when the flagbearer of the National Democratic Congress, John Dramani Mahama, paid a courtesy call on him during his campaign tour of the Region.
