The Ghana Armed Forces (GAF) has launched an investigation into allegations that some personnel of the service are providing security for illegal mining operations popular referred to as Galamsey.
The probe follows reports in a section of the media accusing some personnel of the Armed Forces of providing protection for illegal mininers in parts of the country.
A statement issued by the Ghana Army and signed by Colonel Eric Aggrey-Quarshie, Director of Public Relations, said the service has taken the allegations seriously because it does not condone such wrongdoing.
Appropriate sanctions, it said, would be handed out to persons found culpable.
The Army assured the public of the Ghana Armed Forces unflinching commitment to the national cause.
