Galamsey: Go beyond stop order, arrest directors, officers of Wontumi’s Akonta Mining Limited – OG to Jinapor
Radio personality Kwame Tanko has alleged that the Minister for Lands and Natural Resources Samuel Abu Jinapor was almost slapped at the Ashanti Regional Coordinating Council.
According to him, the individual who almost slapped the Minister is involved in galamsey and could not fathom why a “small boy” wanted to disgrace him.
The individual who he failed to name is said to have said “when did you come into the party, how much of your money has been used to run the political party? You want to disgrace me and spoil my job”.
He said it took the intervention of people around to stop the man from slapping the young, vibrant Minister.
“You know if I wasn’t there and I don’t have evidence, I won’t talk. When the President was in Kumasi to meet Chiefs and MMDCEs the Lands and Resource Minister was almost slapped. The person who wanted to beat him up questioned his locus in the party. When he raised his hand to slap the Minister, they held his hand,” Kwame Tanko said.
