That the traditional authorities were not privy to the takeover or the purchase agreements. It has been observed that FGR did not pay a dollar for the takeover, has not injected any capital into the business.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Further, he said, \u201cFGR has increased the indebtedness from $30 million to $90 million over the three-year period. FGR has drastically reduced the workforce through a series of redundancies. FGR is unable to fulfil its Corporate Social Responsibility, which has seriously affected the infrastructure development of the catchment communities. The\u00a0 FGR could not provide basic Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) and workers have to provide for themselves.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI also discovered that, the FGR lack of adequate critical tools and parts for work. For example, about four months now the plant department has no crusher, so operators use manual means with hammers to break boulders on conveyed belts.\u00a0 Workers operating underground have no means of movement, so walk for five km from level 17 to the end of work.( These pose security threat and safety risks to workers.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe FGR also owes all the critical entities within the business chain which includes Ghana Revenue Authority, Gridco, local contractors that provide essential services such as security, haulage, catering and fuel supply.( Power supply had been disconnected for almost a week now. (This has impacted negatively on the local businesses and non-payments of the security services poses a great threat to the workers and the company, it allows unrestricted entry at all points which had led to three robbery incidents that always targeted at the gold room since FGR took over, \u201cHon Cudjoe added.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_14254\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-14254\" style=\"width: 1280px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-14254\" src=\"https:\/\/expressnewsghana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/HON-ROBERT-CUDJOE.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\" srcset=\"https:\/\/expressnewsghana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/HON-ROBERT-CUDJOE.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/expressnewsghana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/HON-ROBERT-CUDJOE-250x141.jpg 250w, https:\/\/expressnewsghana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/HON-ROBERT-CUDJOE-1000x563.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/expressnewsghana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/HON-ROBERT-CUDJOE-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/expressnewsghana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/HON-ROBERT-CUDJOE-600x338.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-14254\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em>HON ROBERT WISDOM CUDJOE ADDRESS THE PRESS<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The Bogoso-Prestea Mines was established in 1925 with the sole aim of leveraging the mineral resources of the area for the benefit of the people in particular and Ghana as a whole.<\/p>\n<p>The Company has one of the largest gold mines concession covering about 85 km land size and operated for decades with significant development and has changed hands under different companies and managements.<\/p>\n<p>However, after a supposed takeover of the company by Future Global Resources (FGR) from Golden Star Bogoso \u2013Prestea in 2020, the company is witnessing serious problems that, I must say, needed this house intervention.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Source: expressnewsghana.com<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Send your news stories and articles to expressnewsgh@gmail.com or via WhatsApp +233 0543 900 732<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Western Region Parliamentary caucus has called on parliament to set up a parliamentary inquiry into the activities of Future Global Resources (FGR), a gold [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":14253,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[20],"tags":[3431],"class_list":["post-14247","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-parliamentary","tag-prestea-mines-bogoso"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.5 -
