President Nana Addo will first go to Togo then to Cote D’Ivoire and subsequently to Cameroon.
Among the things he will talk about, he is expected to focus on the pollution of some water bodies due to the activities of illegal miners in Ghana.

The move by the President comes days after a powerful delegation from Ivory Coast called on President Akufo-Addo at the Flagstaff House to express concern about the constant pollution of some of their water bodies due to Galamsey activities in Ghana.
The Nana Addo-led government has faced intense pressure from the media and the general public to clamp down on galamsey.
The government has promised to do all within its power to fight the menace which is destroying major water bodies in the country.
Watchers of the sector have further predicted that Ghana may soon be importing water from neighbouring countries if the menace is not tackled.

The Galamsey menace has also led to the destruction of many farmlands, which serve as livelihood for a number of families.
