Sam George
Samuel Nartey George, the minister for Communication, Digital Technology and Innovation has told President John Dramani Mahama to scrap the Legislative Instrument (LI 2462) which permits mining in forest reserves.
It will be recalled John Mahama during his campaign promised to scrap LI 2462 but has now rather sought to amend it which has sparked a strong stance from environmental advocates and civil society organisations, who have voiced disappointment over the Mahama administration’s decision.
