The Ministry of Lands and Natural Resources is getting close to finishing its work. It has been looking into claims about the Amansie Central District Chief Executive. These claims suggest he collected money from people involved in illegal mining.
The investigation is focused on alleged levies. These were reportedly taken from illegal miners operating in the area.
A spokesperson for the Ministry confirmed the probe is nearing its end. The official outcome is anticipated before the first quarter of the year closes.
This action comes as the government continues its efforts to stop illegal mining activities across the country.
Measures and potential consequences will be announced once the investigation is fully complete, according to the Ministry.
