A statement issued by Mr Darlas Ampomah Williams, Regional Communication Officer of the NDC on Monday, 16 May 2021, said the action of the galamsey fighters, in the case of Ms Gyamfua’s company, is a proxy personal vendetta for publicly calling out the Minister of Roads and Highways, Mr Kwesi Amoako-Atta, who also happens to be the MP for the Atiwa West constituency, for his discriminatory fixing of roads in the region.
“It is public knowledge how Ms Kate Gyamfua has bemoaned the horrible state of other roads in the Eastern Region apart from the hometowns of the President and his cousin, the Roads Minister and personally called him out to act without discrimination”, the statement said.
