Charles Bissue, the NPP Western Region Secretary was the Secretary to the Inter-Ministerial Committee on Illegal Mining (IMCIM).

The IMCIM was established in 2017 by the Nana Addo administration to sanitize and curb illegal mining activities in mining communities across the country.

The committee undertook a lot of sensitization activities in various mining communities on the impact of illegal mining until the unfortunate incident when he was captured on camera allegedly taking money to influence office decisions.

Years after, a police report cleared Charles Bissue of no wrongdoing.
