According to the veteran journalist, what the president insists should be the practice, although the entire country is behind his fight against galamsey, is not in law. Speaking on the Thursday, May 27, 2021, edition of Good Morning Ghana, with host, Dr. Randy Abbey, Kweku Baako Jnr explained why he disagrees with the president on this new directive. So yes, government has our full support, including my support. Respectfully, I disagree with my very good friend, the president, and in this case, we are not talking friendship – we are talking authority; presidential authority. And so, to just go and just burn I find it difficult to reconcile because it is not found in the law,” he said.
