Minister of Lands and Natural Resources, Samuel Abu Jinapor has assured that measures have been put in place to protect the forest reserves in the country.
He said some of the measures would continue until further notice.
Mr Jinapor said these while speaking to the media at the National Youth Conference on natural resources and environmental governance on Thursday April 27.
“On May 2, I am leading the Forestry Commission to brief the country on the state of forest reserves in Ghana and give a full update on the state of our forest reserves,” the Damongo lawmaker said.
He added “Some of the measures that we are putting into place will have to continue, there will be setbacks but the most important in this matter as history has taught us, is for us to be focused.”
