Revocation of Northern Ashanti’s lease was harsh – Asanda Farmers to gov’t
The Asanda Farmers Association has waded into the raging controversy surrounding the revocation of the mining lease of Northern Ashanti Mines, describing the move by the Minerals Commission as harsh.
The Asanda Farmers Association has criticized the revocation of Northern Ashanti Mines' mining lease, calling it a harsh decision. The Minerals Commission's move has sparked controversy, and the association's secretary, Emmanuel Aidoo, expressed his concerns during an interview. Aidoo argued that dialogue should be prioritized over revoking licenses, emphasizing that the government gains from the company's operation rather than shutting it down.
He warned that revoking licenses could lead to severe job losses and national security issues, urging the government to intervene and guide Northern Ashanti Mines to operate effectively.
