The Media Coalition Against Galamsey (MCAG) has expressed frustration at the seeming lack of action in the prosecution of the directors of Akonta Mining Limited.

The Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP) has invited former Environment Minister, Prof Kwabena Frimpong-Boateng to help it investigate allegations levelled against some top government officials in his galamsey report.

The Special Prosecutor has spoken for the first time since the explosive report by Prof. Kwabena Frimpong-Boateng, revealing rather disturbing accounts of how the presidency and other notable figures were neck-deep in illegal mining, became public.

Member of Parliament (MP) for South Dayi, Rockson-Nelson Dafeamekpor, has suggested that the police should question Professor Frimpong-Boateng, regarding claims he made in his galamsey report.

The Member of Parliament for South Dayi, Rockson-Nelson Dafeamekpor has petitioned the Commission on Human Rights and Administrative Justice (CHRAJ) to investigate the scandals contained in a report by a former Minister for Environment, Science, Technology and Innovation Prof. Kwabena Frimpong-Boateng on galamsey.

Government says the former Minister for Environment, Science, Technology and Innovation, and Chairperson of the erstwhile Inter-Ministerial Committee on Illegal Mining (IMCIM), Prof. Kwabena Frimpong-Boateng, is yet to submit official report to the presidency on the widely circulated document he authored detailing how the government’s fight against illegal mining was sabotaged by President Akufo-Addo’s own appointees
