Small-scale miners’ president provides hardcore evidence about Aisha Huang

Huang En - Chinese illegal miner

The President of the Concerned Small-Scale Miners Association, Michael Kwadwo Peprah, has provided evidence to back his assertion that Chinese‘Galamsey queen’ Aisha Huang drove around with Office of the President stickers embossed on her cars.

He noted that earlier efforts by the association to inform the security agencies about the ‘Galamsey’ kingpin’s presence in the country failed because of her connection with high government officials and offices. 

According to CitiNews, Kwadwo Peprah, after making the allegations about Aisha and the presidency, was picked up in Kumasi and brought to Accra to undergo police interrogation.

Lawyer for Kwadwo Peprah, Andrew Vortia, in an interview, said his client was able to adduce visual evidence of his allegations during the interrogation.

“He was asked to prove it with pictures and videos. Fortunately, he was able to give them at least three cars with these stickers. Once he was able to point those three out, he was allowed to go,” his lawyer said.

He was interrogated for possible charges of spreading falsehood. 

Kwadwo Peperah’s narration of Aisha’s existence in Ghana contradicts that of the security agencies. According to him, Aisha Huang returned to Ghana about six months after her deportation in 2018.

In an interview with Sompa FM, Mr Kwadwo Peprah stated that the Chinese national would have probably continued to live under the radar of security agencies had it not been for her constant threats to her former landlord.

He explained that Aisha Haung, upon her return to the country, felt cheated by her landlord, who secured a court injunction and evacuated her belongings from her property following her alleged deportation by the government. The president of small-scale miners revealed that Aisha Huang was moving in and out of the country until her constant harassment of her landlord and the new occupant of the property led the two to file a complaint with the Ghana Immigration Service against her.

“The owner of the house rented it out to another Chinese who has since opened a warehouse there which she sells small-scale mining equipment. But while she (Aisha Huang) was coming in and out of the country, she was bent on retrieving the balance for her rent. So she sometimes goes to the Chinese to threaten her over her balance. She even goes to the extent of threatening the landlord. The anger and frustration arising from her threats caused the Chinese and the landlord to report to the immigration office in Accra that the Aisha Huang they claim to have deported is in the country and has threatened them. That was the lead they followed to effect her arrest,” he said.

“As a matter of fact, she was using a Land Cruiser with guards. When you go to Melcom to see the Chinese kingpins there, you see her Land Cruiser embossed with Office of the President sticker,” he said.
