North Tongu Member of Parliament Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa has indicated that the way and manner the Chinese national Aisah Huang, popularly known as Galamsey Queen, re-entered the country exposes Ghana’s readiness to fight terrorism.
Mr Ablakwa called for an urgent full-scale independent enquiry into this matter.
On Monday September 5, an Accra Circuit Court remanded into custody 4 Chinese nationals for their alleged involvement in illegal small-scale mining activities.
Hearing the case Monday September 5, three suspects, Jong Li Huang, Huang Jei and Huiad Hua pleaded not guilty in court to a charge of engaging in sales and purchases of minerals without license.
Aisha Huang who was deported following her involvement in galamsey activities is facing charges of engaging in sale and purchases of minerals without license, as well as mining without license.
Aisha Huang is reported to have returned to the country under a different name. She reportedly applied for a TogoVisa and went through the borders into Ghana to continue her galamsey business in a town in the Ashanti Region.
A former Minister of Lands and Natural Resources, Inusah Fuseini also expressed surprise at the return Aisah Huang.
Commenting on this on the Sunrise show on 3FM , Tuesday September 6, Mr Fuseini who is also a former Member of Parliament for Tamale Central asked, “How did she know that we were doing NIA registration for her to register?
