Ghanaian Police Aided Illegal Miners in Blocking Official: A report from the Western Region of Ghana reveals a concerning incident where police officers allegedly aided illegal miners in their attempt to pressure Dr. Louisa, the administrator of the Minerals Development Fund, into releasing detained Chinese nationals. The incident unfolded near a mining site, with the miners creating a roadblock to prevent Dr. Louisa and her team from accessing the area. Dr. Louisa, in an exclusive interview, stated, "Everything is confusing." She confirmed that police were instrumental in creating the blockade, preventing her from carrying out her duties.
