I like how he highlighted Galamsey. For anyone who’s new or doesn’t know about Galamsey. Galamsey basically means illegal mining. It happens in the Ashanti region, Central, Eastern and Western region, among others. It basically means mining without a license, often carried out in rivers , forests and other protected areas. The consequences of galamsey are serious because it leads to water pollution, destruction of farmlands, and loss of biodiversity. Mercury and cyanide, chemicals often used in the process, contaminate rivers and waterbodies, making them unsafe for drinking and farming. Many communities rely on the water from these rivers that are contaminated. Water treatments centers are shutting down due to the inability to filter the contaminated water. Babies are being born with birth defects, and there’s been a rise in kidney failure and other health related cases. Aside from the health and environmental impacts, Galamsey has severe social consequences. Some children are trafficked into illegal mining operations, often working in dangerous conditions for long hours. Galamsey is an ecosystem consisting of various actors that sustain its operations. We have political actors that protect these concessions, Chiefs that allow the destruction to continue, front liners who are on the ground, gold smugglers, foreign actors and so on. #StopGalamseyNow

In Ghana, our water bodies, farmlands, and forests are being destroyed by illegal mining. In galamsey prone areas, the water is so heavily contaminated that water treatment plants are shutting down because they can no longer filter it. As a result, people living in these communities are left with no choice but to drink contaminated water. #StopGalamseyNow

This is the president of Ghana Nana Akuffo Addo’s legacy! Under his governance 16 of our waterbodies have been polluted! People living in those areas are dying from kidney problems and other organ failure due to the heavy metals polluting the rivers. #COP29Azerbaijan #COP29Baku
