Some community miners at Akyem Abomosu in the Atiwa West District of the Eastern region have accused some operatives of the National Security of harassment and extortion at gunpoint.
The angry community miners say the gun-wielding men led by one Kwadwo Bamba, a former operative of vigilante group, Delta Force now a national security Operative have been invading their mining sites to take away gold and other valuables away.
Addressing the media, the community miners alleged that for some time now thugs led by one Kwadwo Bamba claiming to be a national security operative, have been terrorising and robbing them of their gold and motorbikes.
They disclosed that, the thugs have visited the area for three consecutive times with highly sophisticated guns including AK47 and pistols.
The miners described the actions of the thugs who claimed to be national security Operatives as broad daylight robbery, therefore, appealed to the state security apparatus to deal with “those terrorists,” hence they’ll be forced to square up any time they see them around their area.
“We want to appeal to the Inspector General of Police, Dr George Akuffo Dampare to call Kwadwo Bamba to order, and sound a word of caution that we don’t need him in our enclave. Anytime he storms the area in an attempt to steal our gold and other properties, we’ll face off with him and his gangs. We won’t sit aloof for him to plunder our resources,” Spokesperson of the miners said.
