Dennis Miracles Aboagye, National Communications Director of the opposition New Patriotic Party, has levelled a serious accusation at the party in government. He claims members and executives of the governing National Democratic Congress are themselves engaged in illegal mining. The practice is popularly known as galamsey. Aboagye made the charge in his role as the NPP's communications chief, putting it at the door of the ruling party's own people. No response from the NDC appears in the source.
