The sovereign of Bibiani in the western north region, Nana Ngoa Anyimah Kodom II, has expressed his capacity to battle the galamsey operators more effectively than the government.
He expressed his readiness to fight the canker if he is given the nod and the necessary support.
In regulating galamsey, the Chief instructed the government to collaborate with traditional authorities.
‘‘It is evident that the government’s measures to fight the galamsey activities are not yielding any fruit. I will entreat them to involve the traditional authorities. I can make it possible, if I am made the minister in charge of natural resources,” he reiterated.
Nana Ngoah Anyimah Kodom II stated’’, It’s obvious the fight has not borne any fruit. I will entreat the Akufo-Addo government to sit up and take decision with the chiefs. I strongly believe this can help the fight against the menace’’.
He acted on the opportunity to welcome the newly Municipal Chief Executive for the Bibiani-Anhwiaso-Bekwai, Hon. Paul Andoh urging him to embrace development.
“We should be devoid of our political affiliations and support the new MCE to succeed. I will entreat him to prioritise development ahead of other schedules,” he stated.
In addition, he entreated the Municipality to ensure the major streets in the Bibiani township get street bulbs.
“The major streets in the Bibiani township have been in darkness over the days, meanwhile we pay for that. I will entreat the Municipality to fix the street bulbs,” Nana Ngoah noted.
