PETITION TO THE NATIONAL CHIEF IMAM OF THE REPUBLIC OF GHANA, HIS EMINENCE SHEIKH UTHMAN NUHU SHARIBUTU<\/strong><\/p>\n

Subject: A Daughter of Obuasi Cries Out \u2013 Nine Lives Lost, Many Promises Broken, and a Community Still Waiting for You<\/strong><\/p>\n

To His Eminence Sheikh Uthman Nuhu Shaributu,<\/strong>
\nNational Chief Imam of the Republic of Ghana
\nAccra.<\/p>\n

Your Eminence,<\/p>\n

I write to you not with anger, but with the heavy heart of a daughter who loves her land and fears for its soul. My name is Rahinah Bintu Saana, a broadcast journalist and a citizen of Obuasi East.<\/p>\n

A year ago, our beloved Obuasi bled.<\/p>\n

On the night of Saturday, January 18, 2025, nine young men\u2014breadwinners, fathers, sons, brothers\u2014ventured to an abandoned section of the AngloGold Ashanti mine<\/strong>. They carried no weapons. They posed no threat. They went, as one widow later testified, \u201cbecause there was no work and he never came back.\u201d<\/p>\n

Without warning, military personnel guarding the concession opened fire. The Ghana National Association of Small Scale Miners (GNASSM) confirmed that nine unarmed civilians were killed and fourteen others severely injured. The military offered a different account\u2014claiming a firefight with armed miners\u2014but the Association condemned the act as \u201ca gross violation of human rights\u201d and a breach of the Voluntary Principles on Security and Human Rights.<\/p>\n

Whatever the narrative, Your Eminence, the truth remains: Nine Ghanaian sons did not return home. And nine families were shattered forever.<\/p>\n

The President\u2019s Response \u2013 A Statement, Not a Visit<\/p>\n

In the days following the tragedy, President John Dramani Mahama issued a statement expressing profound regret and ordering an immediate investigation. He promised the nation and the grieving families that justice would be served.<\/p>\n

Twelve months later, Your Eminence, no official cause of the shooting has been established. No perpetrator has been held accountable. The families are still waiting. The wounds remain unhealed.<\/p>\n

Where the Chief Imam Came \u2013 And Where He Left<\/p>\n

Your Eminence, in the chaotic days after the shooting, when grief threatened to boil over into violence, the youth and miners of Obuasi looked up to you. And you came.<\/p>\n

You visited the bereaved families. You consoled the weeping widows. You promised to speak to AngloGold Ashanti and resolve the matter peacefully. The Artisanal Small-Scale Miners Association of Obuasi has publicly confirmed that you pledged to engage AGA on their behalf.<\/p>\n

AGA, in turn, promised to allocate a mining concession to the small-scale miners\u2014a promise that, according to the Association\u2019s Secretary Eugene Annan, has not been fulfilled. \u201cAGA promised to give a concession to a small\u2011scale miners association to work, but up to now, we have not heard anything from them,\u201d he told the press in November 2025.<\/p>\n

Your Eminence, I ask with all due respect: What happened to that promise?<\/p>\n

The miners are still idle. The youth are still unemployed. The widows are still hungry. And the same frustrations that sent those nine young men into the concession that fateful night still fester in the hearts of our young people today.<\/p>\n

The Cry of a Widow \u2013 The Cry of a Generation<\/p>\n

During the one\u2011year anniversary of the shooting, I visited the affected families and donated food items\u2014bags of rice and essential supplies worth thousands of cedis. But as the Assembly Member for Samsonkrom rightly declared: \u201cThis is private support to ease pain, but it does not take the place of justice. The families deserve more than words.\u201d<\/p>\n

One widow, who asked not to be named, told me through tears: \u201cMy husband went because there was no work. He never came back. Now I am alone with the children. We were promised justice, but nothing has come.\u201d<\/p>\n

Your Eminence, that is not just a widow\u2019s cry. That is the cry of Obuasi. That is the cry of every young person who sees no future, no job, no hope. And that is the cry that you once came to answer\u2014but have since left unanswered.<\/p>\n

What We Humbly Ask of You<\/p>\n

Your Eminence, you are not the government. You are not AngloGold Ashanti. But you are the National Chief Imam\u2014the spiritual father of millions of Ghanaians, including the Muslims of Obuasi. Your words carry weight. Your silence is felt.<\/p>\n

I respectfully petition you to:<\/p>\n

1. Fulfill Your Promise \u2013 Return to Obuasi. Meet the families you consoled. Speak to AngloGold Ashanti again\u2014this time, publicly and urgently. If a promise was made, let it be kept.
\n2. Speak Truth to Power \u2013 Use your revered office to call on the government to complete the investigation and deliver the justice promised. A year of waiting is a year too long.
\n3. Address the Root Cause \u2013 Unemployment \u2013 The youth of Obuasi are not criminals; they are desperate. The lack of jobs pushes them into illegal mining. The lack of legal mining sites pushes them onto dangerous concessions. A nation that kills its desperate youth has failed them twice\u2014first by neglect, then by bullet.
\n4. Restore Hope \u2013 Many in Obuasi have given up. They believe their leaders have abandoned them. They believe their spiritual father has forgotten them. Prove them wrong, Your Eminence. Let your actions match your words.<\/p>\n

A Final Plea from a Daughter of Obuasi<\/p>\n

Your Eminence, our great\u2011grandparents toiled with their blood to build this nation and its mines. The sweat of our ancestors watered the ground of Obuasi. Is this their reward? That their descendants are shot down like animals and buried with no justice and no hope?<\/p>\n

We did not ask for war. We asked for work.<\/p>\n

We did not ask for violence. We asked for a future.<\/p>\n

Your Eminence, Obuasi is still bleeding. Not with bullets now, but with the slow hemorrhage of abandoned promises and forgotten families.<\/p>\n

Do not let our silence be mistaken for acceptance. Do not let your absence be mistaken for indifference.<\/p>\n

Rise, Your Eminence. Return to Obuasi. Fulfill your word. And help us restore hope before another young man walks into the dark and never comes back.<\/p>\n

May Allah guide your steps and soften your heart toward us.<\/p>\n

Respectfully submitted,<\/p>\n
