This morning, the Minister for the Interior, Muntaka Mohammed-Mubarak, joined President John Dramani Mahama for the inauguration of the Goldbord Task Force at the National Security Secretariat in Accra.
The task force, comprising the National Security, Ghana Police Service and the Military, is tasked with enforcing laws to prevent the exploitation of Ghana’s natural resources and resetting the gold sector to ensure that the Goldbord fulfills its mandate.

He assured that the task force members would be equipped with body cameras while on duty and their vehicles would be tracked to ensure accountability.
The President urged the task force members to work professionally, with discipline, and warned that anyone who falls foul of the law would face punishment, including possible job loss and forfeiture of entitlements.
