Accra, Dec. 27, GNA - Pastor Edward Kofi Asante, Tantra Hill District Head of The Church of Pentecost, has urged the government to sustain the recent gains made in the fight against illegal mining referred to as galamsey.
He said government should pursue both Ghanaians and foreigners engaged in illegal mining operations without looking back, to ensure that the galamsey problem is settled once and for all.
Pastor Asante was speaking at the end of a four-day Christmas Convention of the Church at Tantra Hill in Accra.
It was on the theme ‘’A Voice in the Wilderness Calling to Prepare the way of the Lord’’.
On the free Senior High School policy, Pastor Asante called on Ghanaians to throw their weight behind it to succeed, and also to help turn the economy round.
Pastor Asante said despite the difficulties facing the economy, the year had been a successful one.
He said the initiatives of the government offered hope for a better future, just as the birth of Christ over 2,000 years ago, gave hope for a new dawn for mankind.
The Tantra Hill District Head urged Ghanaians to be each other’s keeper to deepen the country’s young democracy.
