Lands Minister inspects Ankobra, cites progress in galamsey fight
The Minister for Lands and Natural Resources, Emmanuel Armah-Kofi Buah, says the government is making significant progress in its fight against illegal mining, following sustained operations under Operation Water Shield.
The operation, which involves the National Anti-Illegal Mining Operations Secretariat (NAIMOS), the Special Boat Squadron and Blue Water Guards, has focused on dismantling illegal changfa mining operations and securing the river against armed groups protecting illegal miners.
The government says the sustained operations are intended to protect Ghana’s water bodies and prevent illegal mining activities from regaining ground after the security forces withdraw.
