The Ashanti Regional Chairman of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) has advised Erastus Asare Donkor to avoid documenting and publicizing false stories concerning Akonta Mining Limited's mining operations.

Mr. Bernard Antwi-Boasiako, better known as Chairman Wontumi, has threatened to sue the Multimedia reporter in court if he continues to lie to the public about his involvement in illegal mining, also known as galamsey.

Chairman Wontumi in an interview with Wontumionline.com, stated that he will not handle the reporter with kids gloves if he continues to describe him or his mining firm as galamsey operators.

The NPP Chairman explained that he doesn’t engage in galamsey as stated in the previous documentary which was produced by Erastus Asare Donkor and aired on Joy TV to tarnish his reputation.

“I am sounding this caution to Erastus Asare Donkor and other journalists who don’t have any fact but make bold claims that I am into galamsey. This time round, I will sue Erastus in court if I see any documentary from him slating me as someone engaged in galamsey. I am into large scale mining and that one is different from the illegal activities of galamsey operators”, Chairman Wontumi said.
