Ghana minister urges Western chiefs to unite over mining wealth

The Lands and Natural Resources Minister Emmanuel Armah-Kofi Buah has urged Western Region chiefs to present a unified front in all dealings with mining investors, warning that internal divisions have cost the region its full share of benefits from decades of natural resource extraction. In Nzema East, local assembly members called on the Minister to urgently intervene in an escalating impasse between Adamus Resources Limited and host communities. The discussions highlight ongoing concerns about how mining revenue and community relations are managed in the area, with ministerial involvement signaling potential actions affecting mining operations and local livelihoods.
