‘I’ll be the last person to engage in illegal mining’

‘I’ll be the last person to engage in illegal mining’ – John Boadu

The General Secretary of the governing New Patriotic Party (NPP), John Boadu, has denied ever being involved in illegal mining activities popularly known as ‘galamsey’ in the country. "My attention has been drawn to some news making rounds on social media linking me with some mining activities including ‘galamsey’ in the country. I categorically refute these allegations, which are baseless, malicious, and unmeritorious,” Mr. Boadu said in a statement. "Indeed, the failure and inability of the individuals making the said allegations to provide any modicum of substance to back their allegations despite being challenged to do same on many occasions bears ample testimony to the manifest falsity and mischief they are engaged in.”He believes the allegations are a deliberate attempt by his detractors to tarnish his reputation, and lower “his good image in the eyes of right-thinking members of the society. "He stressed that he has no mining concession anywhere in the country or elsewhere “whether acquired and operated legally or illegally and have not authorized anybody to operate a mining concession on my behalf. He also stated that he has never owned an excavator, nor has he ever been involved either directly or indirectly in any form of mining activity in the past or present. The NPP scribe thus cautioned individuals who may be perpetuating the illegality in his name to desist forthwith. As a law-abiding citizen of this country, whose support and fidelity to the government’s renewed fight against the debilitating ‘galamsey’ menace, is unquestionable, I will be the last person to engage in this abominable enterprise, which is threatening the very existence of our generation and the unborn,” he stated. He further indicated that he will be heading to court soon to clear his name. "On account of the foregoing, I am by this statement, serving notice to the public that I take a very serious view of this defamatory matter, and have accordingly instructed my lawyers to proceed to court to vindicate my right against all persons behind these mischievous acts as well as media houses that provide their platforms in furtherance of this mischief against my person

The President, Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, has dismissed calls on the government to reduce taxes on petroleum products. He said taking such an action will significantly affect the government’s revenues. Addressing the 2022 May Day parade at the Independence Square in Accra, he said the government risks losing about GH¢4 billion if it makes any such move. He added that it is even more untenable because the government is rather looking for more avenues to raise money. “Removing taxes on petroleum products will reduce government revenues by some GH¢4 billion. At this time, when we are determined to expand government revenues in order to increase our capacity to finance our own development, can we afford to reduce tax revenues by GH¢4 billion?” he quizzed. Fuel prices in Ghana have risen sharply in Ghana in the last six months, although they have stayed the same for almost a month. Amidst the numerous complaints from consumers that the situation is causing a strain on their finances as th
