**UEW Lecturer, Dr. Ekpor Anyimah-Ackah, Apologises to President Mahama and EPA CEO Over “De-Chemicalisation” Terminology Brouhaha
October 6, 2025
A lecturer at the University of Education, Winneba (UEW), Dr. Ekpor Anyimah-Ackah, has publicly apologised to President John Dramani Mahama and the Chief Executive Officer of the Environmental Protection Authority (EPA) following the recent controversy surrounding the term “De-Chemicalisation.”
The apology follows a heated debate that ensued after Dr. Anyimah-Ackah criticised the use of the term in public discourse, suggesting it was scientifically inappropriate and misleading. His comments sparked widespread reactions from the public and government officials, with some accusing him of politicising a technical issue.
In a statement issued on Sunday, Dr. Anyimah-Ackah expressed regret over his earlier remarks, acknowledging that his tone and approach might have been misconstrued. He clarified that his intent was purely academic and not meant to undermine any individual or institution.
“I wish to sincerely apologise to President John Dramani Mahama and the EPA CEO for any discomfort my comments may have caused. My critique was based on academic reasoning, not political bias,” he stated.
The term “De-Chemicalisation” has recently gained public attention following government-led initiatives aimed at reducing the use of harmful chemicals in agriculture and mining. The debate has since expanded into academic and environmental circles, with experts differing on the appropriateness of the terminology.
Dr. Anyimah-Ackah has called for constructive dialogue between academics, policymakers, and environmental experts to ensure clarity in public communication regarding scientific terms.
