Dr. Afriyie Akoto and Ashanti Regional Minister-designate Are The Main Galamsay Financiers In Bosome Freho In The Ashanti Region.


The galamsay story in the Bosome freho has taken another twist as big names in the ruling party pops up. After our visit in Bosome freho; a man who is called Kojo Asabre; a concern youth of Bosome Freho and also a supporter of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) in Bosome Freho District of the Ashanti Region has alleged that Minister-designate for Food and Agriculture, Dr Owusu Afriyie Akoto and Hon. Simon Osei Mensah Asahnti Regional designate are the main stakeholders (financials) of the ongoing illegal mining activities in the said district  at Adakabunso, Minti Forest at Minti and Dannso Forest at Dannso.

In an exclusive interaction with Mr. Kojo Asabre who claim to be a farmer, He emphatically stated that the DCE of Bosome Freho, Hon. Yaw Danso has been participating in the Galamsey activities in the District and the intelligence gathered showed that, Dr. Owusu Afriyie Akoto and Hon. Simon Osei Mensah are allegedly sponsoring the illegal mining activities in the poor communities.

A group in the community accused the DCE a couple of weeks ago that, The DCE has been engaging himself in Timber business destroying Danso forest reserve.
He is being supervising   More than 10 excavators in bankroso for Galamsey.
Furthermore, some founding fathers of the party in the District also released a press statement confirming the DCE is a Galamsey Kingpin in the District. They stated that, most farms, forest areas and water bodies are being destroyed because of few people self gains. 

Meanwhile, Mr. Kojo Asabre has disclosed that another revelation has pop-up, which signified that the minister designate for food and agriculture and his close pal Hon. Simon Osei Mensah are the Mastermind of the accusations leveled against the DCE.
He therefore called on all stakeholders to look into the said allegations seriously and bring the illegal mining activities under control for the sake of posterity.
