The latest disclosure by editor of the New Crusading Guide, Abdul-Malik Kweku Baako, is that an official of Ghana’s Forestry Commission is selling forest concessions and reserves to Chinese miners for his personal gains.
He made the revelation to host of Multi Tv’s Newsfile, Lardy Anyeninion, Saturday June 10 in a discussion on illegal mining in the country.
“There is a big fish…at the Forestry Commission who is making all sorts of noise and calling the army, calling the police, doing this, doing that, but that gentleman is caught on tape selling forest reserves and concessions to Chinese and other Ghanaians and collecting money. He is there at the Forestry Commission, he’s a big man,” he said.
The Forestry Commission of Ghana is responsible for the regulation of utilization of forest and wildlife resources, the conservation and management of those resources and the coordination of policies related to them.
