The Ghana Union of Traders Associations (GUTA) has urged President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo to eradicate illegal mining, commonly known as galamsey, before his tenure concludes.
The union emphasised that achieving this would be a significant legacy for the president.
This appeal follows numerous calls for the president to address the issue, which is severely depleting the country’s resources.
“It is our fervent hope that the president would heed to the numerous calls and act decisively to end the menace before his tenure of office ends which would be a great legacy for him,” Dr. Joseph Obeng, President of GUTA, stated in a release on Thursday.
