Dennis Miracles Aboagye has slammed former Chairman of the Inter-Ministerial Committee on Illegal Mining (IMCIM), Professor Kwabena Frimpong-Boateng for accusing the Minister of Information, Kojo Oppong Nkrumah of sabotaging his efforts against galamsey.

Professor Frimpong-Boateng, who is also a former Minister for Environment and Technology, accused the Information Minister of orchestrating a plot to bring him down while he was working to fight against the illegal mining menace.

Mr. Oppong Nkrumah, in reply, has denied all the claims and expressed disappointment in Professor Frimpong-Boateng, saying “over the years, I had nothing but great admiration for Prof Boateng’s public spirited works and as an inspirational citizen. I feel gravely offended over the false claims he has made and the hurtful conclusions he has sought to exact about me precisely because of the great esteem in which I have held him. I trust that in the coming months and years he will reflect deeply upon his own actions and comments which have led to his challenges. He should kindly leave me out of his personal fights”.

“I am utterly disappointed but I forgive him,” he added.

Discussing the matter during Peace FM’s ‘Kokrokoo’ programme, Dennis Miracles corroborated the Information Minister’s denial of any wrongdoing purported by Professor Frimpong-Boateng.

He stated emphatically that “if you want MPs actively involved in the fight of galamsey in his area, Kojo Oppong Nkrumah is among them”.

The Director of Local Government Services at the Office of the President noted that the claims made by Professor Frimpong-Boateng against the Mr. Oppong Nkrumah are not just untrue but also something he (Frimpong-Boateng) isn’t saying he personally knows or experienced but rather basing the claims on hearsay.

He wondered why Professor Frimpong-Boateng would level such serious allegations against the Information Minister just because he received information from someone who claims to have also been told on phone by another person that Mr. Oppong Nkrumah had mobilized media persons to smear his (Frimpong-Boateng) reputation.

“How do you even pick a pen and a paper and try to impugn Kojo?…How do you come and try to even create an impression that Kojo Oppong Nkrumah was trying to sabotage your work…?”, he fumed.
