The National Democratic Congress is held a press conference to address major issues in the country, particularly illegal mining.

The presser happened live at the National Headquarters of the party.

This comes a day after President Akufo-Addo met with the leadership of the National House of Chiefs and the Metropolitan, Municipal and District Chief Executives (MMDCEs) to discuss the illegal mining menace.

The discussions at the meeting provided the President and the stakeholders the opportunity to find realistic means of dealing with the problem, which is destroying water bodies and lands in parts of the country.
