President Akufo-Addo delivered the keynote address at the Natural Resources Stakeholder Dialogue organised by the Graphic Communications Group Limited and the Ministry of Lands and Natural Resources.
He indicated in his statement that we must, and should harness our natural resources for sustainable development.
According to him, it requires the country to ensure that the exploitation of these resources does not destroy the natural environment that provides us with subsistence.
“We must ensure that mining contracts address issues of environmental protection, the payment of adequate compensation to affected communities and the development of the areas where these resources are derived. We must find a lasting solution to illicit financial flows associated with the natural resources sector” President Akufo-Addo added.
