Mining: Disclosed the amount you took on our behalf within 7 days– Unique Mining Group to Upper East Reg. Minister

Unique Mining Group, one of the Small Scale Mining Group operating in the Gbene community of the Talensi District in the Upper East Region has requested the Upper East Regional Minister to disclose the money he received from Earl International Group Ghana Gold Limited on behalf of Unique Mining Group. A letter written by the leadership of the Unique Mining Group and directed to the Upper East Regional Minister Mr. Stephen Yakubu which was sighted by Apexnewsgh.com with a reference number UN/Ma/01 dated December 29, 2022, and signed by the acting Chairman of the group Mr. Abdulai Amaligo says, “the request has become necessary because we are not sure of the total amount either by cheque or cash paid through the UERCC for onward delivery to our group (Unique Mining Group)”. The leadership of the group who are not satisfied with happenings regarding their share of money paid by Earl International also demands for more and better particulars. “We also wish to request for the dates of payments and the currency used for the payments”. they further requested We respectfully expect you to address our request within seven (7) working days from the day of receipt of this letter for us to decide the next line of action. The letter said. Meanwhile, during my earlier conversation with the Regional Minister December 8, 2022 on the same Unique Mining Group issue, the Regional Minister Stephen Yakubu, did not deny receiving the money from Earl International on behalf of the small-scale miners, he said his intervention through the RCC was to make sure peace returned at the mining area. But responding to why the disputed money was paid to an individual instead of a group, Mr. Yakubu said, the name of the individual was given to him by the Mineral Commission as the leader of the Unique Mining Group. Perhaps, on this current development, numerous efforts made by the platform through phone calls and messages in both WhatsApp and SmS to get the Regional Minister’s response to the said letter were not successful.

UER: Chiefs, CSOs, NGOs, Pastors, and Imams enjoy visiting the Prez for their own personal interest –John Ayine

A member of the NPP’s Upper East Regional communication team, Johnson Ayine has said, the act of interest self-seeking Chiefs, CSOs, NGOs, Pastors, and Imams in the Upper East Region is a massive contributing factor to the region’s underdevelopment. Mr. Ayine made the revelation on Apexnewsgh.com flagship program dubbed “SPEAK OUT UPPER EAST” on Wed, September 07, 2022 Responding to the question from the host of the program Ngamegbulam Chidozie Stephen on issues bedeviling development in the region, Mr. Ayine said some identifiable groups in the region enjoy visiting the President, Vice President, and Ministers of State individually for their own selfish interests and parochial interest without considering development for the regionHe asked “How many times have you seen Upper East either at NDC or NPP administration, how many times have you seen these identifiable groups either traditional rulers, pastors, Imams, Civil Society Organizations moving up and down meeting President or those in various ministries to demand development in our region, how many times? When they visit our region our chiefs, and imams went there individually, the religious leaders went there individually, our CSOs and what have you, and some of them went there individually. How many of them will say, let us go there with one voice and demand what is due us? He quizzed Sighting an example, he said BONABOTO and TEERE as a group were able to come together and succeeded in getting the people of Upper East Gurune language into GES as a learning language. “For the Gurune Language was executed by BONABOTO and TEERE Mr. Avea’s NGO and the government listened and that tells you that when we come together as a people and demand for something, the government will listen. When my father delegated his sub-chiefs Dorongo Naaba, Kalbeo Naaba, myself, and some other persons to Dr. Bawumia to talk about this road, he listened. So, that is what we are supposed to be doing”.

“As northerners, we do things As if poverty was born and brought right into this part of the country —UE-Reg Minister

The Upper East Regional Minister Stephen Yakubu has advised northerners and more especially local government workers in the Upper East Region to improve with their pattern of dressing to work. Apexnewsgh.com report Mr. Yakubu said: “As northerners, we do things as if the whole world is against us. As if poverty was born and brought right into this part of the country. So, when you are working, you should have cloth that you use to go to work with. Most people just wear the same thing to the market, wear the same thing to the office, wear the same thing to sleep, wear the same thing to chess women, wear the same thing to drink pitol. “You need to have…..when you are going to work, let everyone know you are going to work, is important. Don’t think that the degree you have is different from the degree someone has in Accra. “And in fact, when you look at it, you will see that, you are rather saving more money than someone living in Adenta working right inside Accra. Because in the morning he leaves around 5am, taking the same salary as yours and he has to go all the way to work and come back, get home around 9-10pm and the following day he is going. But here, with your motor 5minutes, you are at home, and you spend less and at the same time, you are looking as if you are the one your pay is so scanty. So, we need to change. He advised The Regional Minister made the pronouncement during his tour to inspect government projects in Binduri and Bongo districts on Wednesday, May 18, 2022.
