Don’t dare the anti-galamsey taskforce; CDS warn illegal miners

Any attempt by individuals or groups to dare the national anti-galamsey task force, Operation Vanguard command, will be met with equal force, the Chief of Defence Staff has said.

Obed Akwa’s statement is in reaction to intelligence that some illegal miners are planning to face off with personnel of the task force.

“From snippets of information that I am getting, these illegal miners are determined to pose a threat. They have made certain statements but I want it to out there that they should not throw a challenge to the security forces.

“This is because it will be met with equal force and the cannot win, any direct threat to Operation Vanguard will not be tolerated,” he warned.
