Conference Centre stops screening of Anas Aremeyaw’s ‘galamsey economy’ exposé

The Accra International Conference Centre has stopped investigative journalist Anas Aremeyaw Anas from screening his latest ‘galamsey economy’ exposé, Tiger Eye P.I said in a statement on Sunday (13 November 2022).

“Tiger Eye P. I. hereby informs the public that it has been stopped from screening its latest undercover investigative piece titled ‘Galamsey Economy‘ at the Accra International Conference Centre (AICC) which is scheduled this Monday and Tuesday (14 &15) of November 2022,” the statement said.

The documentary uncovers the kingpins behind illegal mining in Ghana.

“Tiger Eye has already fulfilled every requirement of AICC to use the place including payment for the venue despite last minute change in cost by about per cent (30%).

“Tiger Eye is saddened that barely 48 hours to the public screenings, when invitations have been sent to the diplomatic community and other high-profile individuals in society, and flyers sent out to the public, we have had to look for a new venue,” the statement added.

Below is the full statement:
