Sir John was a devil with disregard for Ghana's future. We have failed as a country when it comes to appointment of FC heads. Most people appointed has no knowledge nor respect for the environment

It’s so painful the way politicians have ruined Ghana and made it retrogressive.

Who also sees the angle that Benard Avle is taking to keep Mahama’s failed govt off the hook as far as Galamsey is concerned. Otherwise while will he invite this man who has left office to come for this interview instead of holding current office holders accountable? AGENDA!

40 forest reserves for illegal mining? Look at the surge in illegal mining (galamsey).

Can we hear the current story now. Why the rehash of this old narrative. We have heard it a million times. The people are no more in government por we simply don't want to talk about the present happenings at the galamsey front?

So what? How does this solve the persisting galamsey issue? The presser by Rocha on Atewa has sent chills down the spine of govt on his hired journalists are at work to do damage control by roping in NPP

And who’s the current Forestry Commissioner? Has the Galamsey in Forests end? How far is Atewa Forest? Prof. Boateng should understand that, mining in the deep forests is not prohibited but illegal mining in it is irresponsibleness and an unlawful act. An institutional problem

Hello Dennis Edward Aboagye , Unfortunately, the facts and data available contradict this falsehood you adamantly continue to peddle. Ghana Water Company and Ghana Resources Commission data clearly shows that the turbidity levels of our waters, though still beyond the WHO standards in 2016, the got historically worse when the NPP took over power. Until late 2022, there was no mining activity in our restricted Forest Reserves until Chairman Wontumi's Akonta mining started Galamsey there, as the EPA Report, Frimpong Boateng, and Erastus Asare Donkor reports revealed. Ex-president Akuffo Addo, being complicit and a beneficiary of Galamsey, in a speech cleared Wontumi of any crimes and supported Akonta mine's illegal invasion of our forest reserves, destroying our water bodies and lands. In order to affirm his complicity and benefit from Galamsey, he signed L.I 2642 that legitimized Chairman Wontumi's illegal mining in the forest reserves, which gave him the locus to allocate more of the lands to himself and lease them to Chinese and other illegal miners to further degrade our waters and forests. At this same time, Dr. Bawumia brought the "Gold Purchase Program and Gold for oil policies," which was heavily dependent on buying gold from small-scale miners and Galamseyers like Akonta mining and his cronies, and to fulfill the greedy agenda of "PARTY HIA SIKA" that was exposed in the Frimpong Boateng leaked tape. This was widely supported by the rank and file of the NPP, including people like you and your communicators, who ridiculed, asked for the arrest, and demonization of Ghanaians who waged the #StopGalamseyNow demonstration. By all measures, the NPP were direct beneficiaries of Galamsey and had no intention to fight or stop it. The only people they fought were everyday Ghanaians so they could confiscate their equipment and give it to party boys to fulfill the party hia sika agenda through community mining and innocent demonstrators like KALYJAY.Osagyefo Oliver Barker-Vormawor GlennSamm Kvng || Walking Artiste 🇹🇿🇬🇭 among others.

It has become evidently clear that, one of the key enablers of the Galamsey menace in Ghana is the NDC. Clearly, they make the country’s efforts to end this menace a difficult one, when they continue to go into Galamsey sites to encourage the people to commit these criminalities. When they continue to assure them to vote for them so they will come to government to protect them and allow them to continue the galamsey, it makes it difficult. The sad part of this, is how they come to the public to call our government and accuse government of inability to end this menace, and then they rush to the galamsey sites to encourage them not to stop galamsey. Truly, we have challenges and problems as a country, but it’s becoming increasingly obvious that, one of Ghana’s biggest problem, is the NDC. Unfortunately, we have a democracy and can’t do anything other than managing them. Vote against the NDC, they are key enablers of Galamsey, they are dishonest and insincere and have no clear plan to deal with this menace other than assure the people of allowing them to even engage more in this illegality. Vote for Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia who has outlined a clear plan on handling this by channeling the energies of the people into safe and appropriate mining through the following strategies; 1. Minerals Development Bank to support with financing 2. Decentralized and convenient licensing regime to ease access to concessions by the locals 3. Provide Data to make it easy to identify when the gold is, in the land 4. Buy the Mined Gold from the people to grind the country’s reserves through the Gold Backed cedi program to boost the strength of our currency. 5. Accelerate the introduction of the community mining schemes to cover more districts 6. Provide more safe mining equipment for the people to enable them mine without negatively affecting our river bodies and forests Bold and Clear, well thought through plan. #BoldSolutionsForOurFuture #ToLeadIsToSolve #bawumiameansbusines #ItIsPossible

The bar for scandals has been dropped so low under the NDC government that, the issues that were seen as scandals under the NPP government have now been normalized. It tells you how bad the situation is. Long before now, it has always been public knowledge how this government has normalized Galamsey. Government buying gold from Galamseyers has been confirmed by the president himself Government officials directly involved in Galamsey has been normalized NDC party officials involved in galamsey has been normalized The entire country is being excavated, our river bodies and forest reserves have become regular hunting grounds for NDC members and their galamsey allies. Today, some NDC officials are actually moving round taxing/levying Galamseyers and providing them with security and protection to destroy our land. To you the fake neutral, fake neutrals like Prof. Gyampo, who were all over this country, screaming and shouting under the pretense of loving and fighting for Ghana, threatening indefinite strikes if a state of emergency isn’t called over Galamsey, SHAME ON YOU!!! Your heads shld be bowed in shame for misleading this country and misleading your country men to believe you were fighting for a good cause when indeed, you fought for yourself and political party. Today, your political party has become the biggest enabler of Galamsey in this country and yet you sit in the meeting rooms drinking champagne with them and toasting 🥂 to long reign over the country. Under your government today, we have Galamsey happening right in the middle of our towns, at Kwabeng secondary school, our kids study as the view galamsey happening on their compound. At Abomosu STEM, the students have dinner as they use the sounds of excavators as background melodies. Akokeri college in Ashanti has excavators moving right in the middle of the school. Several Districts in the central region have been without potable water for months. It may seem like a lost fight under your government but your conscience would not be allowed to rest!! You selfish, self loving, manipulative individuals who caused unrest in this country over Galamsey are now sitting in strategy rooms with perpetrators and enablers of Galamsey. Shame on you!!!!! The day of reckoning will come and you will be made to account for this crime you sit aloof, enable and watch your friends and colleagues in government and your party bring upon this land. That day will surely come Just give time, some time SHAME ON YOU!!!! #GalamseyEnablers
