Residents of Akyem Kwabeng in the Atiwa District have urged Xtra-Gold Mining Company to stop its operations in the area to save their already polluted water bodies from further pollution.
Mr. Oteng Agyei, assembly member for Wintinase, gave the order when he addressed a press conference at Kwabeng in the Atiwa District on Monday.
He said the company had failed to comply with the social responsibility agreement signed with the community in respect of providing them with portable water after contaminating their water bodies.
