Instructor Kwabena Frimpong-Boateng has actually replied to a declaration through Gabby Otchere Darko on the prohibited mining document he authored and also turned over to the Presidency in 2021 when he chaired Inter-Ministerial Board on Prohibited Mining. Gabby's response was actually created in a broadcast question recently when the 2021 document came to be people.
Listed below is actually Prof Frimpong-Boateng's feedback
I have actually discovered transcripts of claims created through Mr. Gabby Otchere Darko in the course of a meeting he possessed on CITI FM on Thursday 20th April 2023. After hearing the words of Mr. Gabby Otchere Darko I came to be depressed for Ghana. I questioned exactly just what took place in our company to obtain this condition, where an individual that is actually intended to become the attorney of a mining business showed such a commercial range lack of knowledge around mining regulations and also policies.
Reviewing the video recordings and also images illustrating the significant ecological destruction in the regions of procedure of Mr. Gabby Otchere Darko's customers, and also viewing his lack of knowledge, I'm no more startled that Mr. Gabby Otchere Darko has actually such a pixelated perspective of the prohibited mining garden in Ghana. Mr. Gabby Otchere Darko seems to be to have actually neglected that his customer has actually a tough background of functioning with impunity.
Donald Entsuah runs each C&G Aleska and also Heritage Royal Mining Carbon monoxide. Ltd. has actually a background of mistreating mining allows and also policies. On 29th Nov 2016, Mr. Toni Aubyn, after that Main Manager Police officer of the Minerals Percentage in the course of the NDC management, composed to C&G Aleska that the Business was actually "very truly taken part in prohibited mining on its own prospecting license".
On 30th January 2017, Mr. Aubyn composed once again to C&G Aleska for "taking on mining tasks unlawfully without acquiring all of the requisites allows and also approvals". Once again, on the second Oct 2017, Hon. John Peter Amewu, the 1st NPP Preacher for Lands and also All-organic Sources composed to G&G Aleska relating to the Dwuabo concession and also administered that "because that C&G Aleska doesn't have actually a legitimate Mining Functioning Allow, which the Ministry has actually certainly not however ratified your mining rent, you're administered NOT T0 CARRY 0UT ANY MINING OPERATIONS in the concession up till your mining rent was ratified.
C&G Aleska metamorphosed into Heritage Royal Mining Carbon monoxide. Ltd. run through Donald Entsuah. This time around they resolved in the Apaprama and also Kobro woodlands in Manso in the Ashanti Location and also quickly began with energetic mining without also a prospecting license along with the assistant damage of woodlands, farmlands, and also sprinkle physical bodies. It resided in these woodland sets aside that the IMCIM activity pressure tried to halt the prohibited functions of Donald Entsuah and also his Heritage Royal Business in 2018.
Mr. Gabby Otchere Darko, it is actually laughable that your insurance case has actually named me to find relevant information on your customer. If you required any sort of relevant information, you might have actually named the Minerals Percentage. You understand I didn't work mining relevant information solutions. You contacted us to say to me that the customer possessed a legitimate mining license plus all-important allows. I said to you that Heritage Royal Carbon monoxide. Ltd. didn't have documentation allowing it to carry out energetic mining.
In spite of your treatment the Mandarins, that were actually apprehended were actually discharged due to the activity pressure. The various soldiers that were actually delivering protection company for your client's business assaulted the IMCIM activity pressure group and also destroyed the lorry holding reporters that were actually dealing with the IMCIM functions. The regrettable scenes were actually recorded on video cam and also revealed on JOY TV.
Mr. Otchere Darko, I do not believe you have actually retrograde amnesia, yet I still intend to freshen your moment around the damage of the atmosphere that was perpetrated through your customer throughout the years along with the coming with video recordings and also images coming from Diaso woodland and also Apaprama. Even though your customers possessed all of the licenses and also allows, along with the damage that they induced, certainly do not merely need to they have actually quit coming from functioning a mining business forever, yet they need to likewise have actually been actually taken to court, possibly jailed, created to reclaim the property, vegetate it and also wash the sprinkle physical bodies.
Lastly, the [former] Preacher, which Mr. Gabby Otchere Darko believes possessed a poor recognition of his posture, has actually performed more for this nation and also the world compared to Mr. Otchere Darko will ever before the desire for in a thousand years.
