The Chairman of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) in the Evalue-Gwira-Ajomoro constituency, Emmanuel Ennor Kofi, has denied alleged involvement in illegal mining activities, describing them as “a complete falsehood without an iota of truth.”
This was stated in a press release issued on February 18, 2025, and signed by Gideon Ansah Mensah, Director of Operations of Annomanuel Company Limited, which he owns.
According to the statement, Mr. Ennor is a legitimate businessman who operates within areas authorized by the Minerals Commission.
“Contrary to the reports, neither he nor the company has engaged in any form of mining in a forest reserve or waterbody,” the statement read.
The release further reaffirmed Mr. Ennor Kofi’s commitment to fighting illegal mining, in line with former President John Dramani Mahama’s pledge to tackle the galamsey menace.
“As a patriotic Ghanaian and the chairman of the National Democratic Congress in the Evalue-Gwira-Ajomoro constituency, Mr. Ennor Kofi is fully aware of the commitment by His Excellency John Dramani Mahama to addressing the galamsey menace, and he is fully committed to this cause,” the statement emphasized.
The company urged the public, especially the people of Evalue-Gwira-Ajomoro, to disregard what it described as “malicious and mischievous propaganda” against Mr. Ennor Kofi.
“We want to reiterate that these reports are untrue, unfounded, and baseless,” the statement concluded.
