There are growing concerns about Martin Ayisi’s continuous stay in office, as the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the Minerals Commission, despite the Mahama government’s commitment to addressing the menace of illegal mining, otherwise known as “Galamsey”.
Insiders at the Minerals Commission, are worried that Mr Ayisi, whose tenure has been plagued by the depletion of Ghana’s forest reserves and pollution of water bodies with poisonous substances, some of which have sipped in the sea, is still at post while galamsey activities continue.
