Individuals reportedly interfered with the operations of Global Ore Ghana Limited in their Aboso-Bompieso mining concession, preventing company officials and workers from accessing the legally acquired area. According to the Community Relations Officer, Prosper Makafui Agbetoh, thugs forced workers to leave the site and allegedly damaged company vehicles during the incident.
The company has called for investigations from the Ghana Police Service and other state security agencies to ensure safety and protect properties.
