She expressed her resilience, asserting that she is not swayed by attacks from either party and emphasized her independent stance in political matters. Nana Aba went on to commend Vice President.
Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia for his comprehensive approach to addressing the challenges posed by illegal mining. Specifically, she praised his strategy of empowering the Geological Survey Authority to accurately map mineral reserves and establishing a resource pool of equipment to support sustainable mining practices.
In her assessment, Nana Aba highlighted the Vice President’s deep understanding of the complexities surrounding galamsey and expressed her approval of the realistic measures proposed to effectively combat this pressing issue.
