The Deputy Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the National Youth Authority (NYA), Akosua Manu, has indicated that the appointment of ex-Minister for Environment, Science, Technology and Innovation, Prof Kwabena Frimpong-Boateng, as the chairperson of the dissolved Inter-Ministerial Committee on Illegal Mining (IMCIM) is possibly the biggest mistake made by the Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo government.
Akosua Manu, a member of the communication team of the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP), expressed her belief that the appointment of Prof. Frimpong-Boateng was a mistake due to his perceived inaction when he was in charge of the country’s efforts to curb illegal mining (galamsey).
In an interview on Metro TV’s Good Morning Ghana program on October 30, 2023, she suggested that the former minister is now conveniently blaming others for the issues during his tenure, now that he is no longer in office.
