The reputation of veteran journalist Abdul Malik Kweku on Wednesday suffered a jolt when it was revealed that he owns and covertly operates a small-scale mining firm.

Kennedy Ohene Agyapong, who has waged a bruising campaign against Kweku Baako and his mentee, Anas Aremayaw Anas claimed on his television station, Net 2 that the latter runs a mining firm.

He insists Mr Baako’s abrasive posturing and strong condemnation of illegal miners in media discussions are ostentatious as he is neck-deep in the practice.

“I have dig Kweku Baako and his boy (referring to Anas) very well. I have documents to suggest that he owns a mining company call C&J and he has been managing this company for years.

“He should be very careful because I have lots of information about him. He preaches virtues and practices vices,” the Assin Central Member of Parliament retorted.

Mr Agyapong alleged that Mr Baako’s C&J mining company operates in the Western Region of the country and regularly indulge in illegal prospecting of gold, which is popularly known as “galamsey”.

Mr Agyapong has recently described Kweku Baako as dumb and an extortionist, adding that, “he makes money by destroying the image of well-to-do people”.

Consequently, he has vowed to draw the attention of the public to Mr Baako’s sinister activities and to enable them to form their own opinions about him.
