Director of Communications for the Bawumia Campaign Team, Dennis Miracles Aboagye, has argued that the former Environment Minister, Professor Kwabena Frimpong-Boateng\u2019s report on illegal mining implicates the National Democratic Congress (NDC) more than the New Patriotic Party (NPP).<\/p>\n

Speaking on JoyNews\u2019 Newsfile<\/strong><\/em> on Saturday, September 20, Mr Aboagye said the NDC cannot rely on the report as a basis for criticism without acknowledging that it highlights a deeper involvement of their members in galamsey activities.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe report is clear. It says that there are far more NDC people engaged in illegal mining. So if Professor Frimpong Boateng\u2019s report is what they want us to work with, and indeed, it is established in that report that there are far more NDC people involved in illegal mining,\u201d Mr Aboagye said.<\/p>\n

Citing page 13 of the report, Mr Aboagye noted that the former Chairman of the Inter-Ministerial Committee on Illegal Mining explicitly stated that the NDC benefited more from access to resources linked to illegal mining.<\/p>\n

\u201cProfessor Frimpong Boateng says that the NDC was given an advantage in terms of access to resources from mining. <\/p>\n

\u201cThis is because there are far more NDC people engaged in illegal mining than NPP members in the region. This is in Professor Frimpong Boateng\u2019s report,\u201d he stressed.<\/p>\n

He further argued that if the report is to be the yardstick, then the NDC \u201chas no business being in office\u201d because, in his view, it indicts them more than it does the NPP.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
