Aisha Huang deported

Aisha Huang, a Chinese national and a kingpin in the Ghanaian illegal mining sector was deported in 2018 under strange circumstances at a time she was facing trail for illegal mining following her arrest in the year 2017.

Her case was subsequently discontinued.

The Senior Minister at the time, Mr Yaw Osafo Marfo in an attempt to justify the deportation said jailing the illegal mining kingpin known will not solve the country’s economic problem.

He emphasize the significance of Ghana’s diplomatic ties with China adding “So when there are these kinds of arrangements, there are other things behind the scenes”

“We have a very good relationship with China. Today, the main company that is helping develop the infrastructure system in Ghana is Sinohydro, it is a Chinese Company. It is the one that is going to help process our bauxite and provide about two billion dollars to us… So when there are these kinds of arrangements, there are other things behind the scenes,” Mr Osafo Marfo said.

“Putting that lady (Aisha Huang) in jail in Ghana is not going to solve your economic problems. It is not going to make you happy or me happy, that’s not important, the most important thing is that she has been deported out of Ghana,” he added.

However, media report suggest Aisha Huang sneaked her way into the country early this year and has since been engaging in the same venture for which she was deported.

She has since been re-arrested and re-arraign before an Accra Circuit Court together with four Chinese nationals for alleged involvement in illegal small-scale mining activities.

Aisha is reported to have acquired the Ghana Identification Authority’s Ghana Card with the name Aisha En.
