NPP’s Vice Presidential candidate, Dr. Matthew Opoku Prempeh, assures that the next NPP administration will support small-scale miners in expanding operations through responsible mining practices.
Speaking to community members and party supporters in the Manso Adubia constituency, Ashanti Region, he emphasized the difference between responsible, regulated mining and the destructive impact of illegal activities on forests and water bodies.
Announcing a key shift in the fight against illegal mining, NAPO highlighted that the NPP remains focused on managing Ghana’s minerals to boost the economy and improve livelihoods, all while safeguarding the environment.
During his campaign tour, he made stops at several churches in the Manso Adubia constituency to join them in worship.
He extended heartfelt gratitude to the churches for their prayers and blessings, not just for the presidential candidate and himself, but for the entire New Patriotic Party.
He outlined Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia’s vision to advance responsible mining, highlighting the plan to establish a Minerals Development Bank in partnership with the private sector.
The bank will be crucial in driving sustainable development within the mining sector.
