According to GhOne TV, a Ghanaian regional minister has reportedly passed out, likely as a result of shock, after his driver fled with the illegal galamsey proceeds that he had obtained.
According to the report, the driver made off with Ghc 17 million in cash and fled the scene.
The minister lost consciousness shortly after learning the news.
GhOne TV wrote: “A Regional Minister collapses as his driver bolts with 17 million cedis galamsey proceeds. Driver is reported to be in Ivory Coast at the moment. More to follow…”
Keep in mind that galamsey is against the law in Ghana, despite the fact that our government officials seem to be involved in the practice and profit off of it.
People’s responses on social media tend to be supportive of the driver, with many congratulating him on winning the jackpot.
