The Methodist Church Ghana has called on the government to expedite action on banning illegal sand winning in the country.
The Diocesan Bishop of the Northern Accra Diocese, The Right Reverend Professor Joseph M.Y. Edusa-Eyison, who made the call mentioned Pokuase and its environs as the major area where such illegal activities were carried out.
He said a visit to the Ga Sub-Urban Circuit showed the destruction of farmlands and the weak foundations of uncompleted structures as a result of sand-winning activities.
