Akufo-Addo cannot fight galamsey because his people are behind it - Ernesto Yeboah

Founder of youth-led group Economic Fighters League Ernesto Yeboah has slammed the government and appointees describing them hypocrites.

Ernesto Yeboah says these politicians pretend as if they are fighting illegal miners but are the ones behind it.

Mr. Yeboah indicated that the galamsey fight had been a failure because the persons assigned to fight against it are the ones who are leading the cabal.
