The people people have the power to take decision on stopping Galamsey are in Accra so what is the sense in demonstrating anywhere else other when Accra.

There's nothing strange about this guy's mentality - that's how every NPP member thinks about galamsey, even those whose lands galamsey has destroyed still support the government's silence on galamsey

We need somebody to mount a platform in Kumasi to drum home an answer to this senseless question, always coming from that part of Ghana. Are the president, Natural Resource Minister, Mineral Commission who are mandated to protect the environment located in the galamsey forest? are they not in Accra? Are the local & International Media that would carry the messages across located in the galamsey forest? are they not in Accra? Is the effect of galamsey only felt in the galamsey pit?

They claim they have the men. Listen carefully to this worm-infested man in his head who cannot think about the consequences of galamsey on the human but asking why people organize demonstration in Accra rather than elsewhere. People are developing kidney problems,river bodies polluted and mothers giving birth to deformed babies and our food crops exported are rejected just because most of them are contaminated with heavy metals isn't a problem to you.

Accra is not part of Ghana right? Accra people don't drink or use water in Ghana? People in Accra don't travel out of Accra? The same water being polluted does not flow through to Accra? Most of this politicians must have their brains checked before they speak.

The Demos are political. The galamsey has always been with us. Who can tell me there was no galamsey during Mahama's presidency? The Demos are the works of the NDC. Mahama has no message for the people. We have a problem with galamsey and we need partisan politics to solve it.

Unfortunately, your foolish and nonsense question deserves rational response.

1. Where is the seat of the Akyem galamsey government that authorizes people to conduct such activity in the hinterland?

2. Where is that moron, Akufo Addo, who can develop policy to streamline galamsey in Ghana?

3. Where the key stakeholders who sponsor galamsey in the hinterland?

4. Does Kwadwo Poku have a clue about the environmental and health impacts of galamsey activities on Ghana as a nation?

If Kwadwo Poku can answer these questions, then he has the answer in regards to the reason why the protesters are holding their awareness campaign in Accra.

The main problem of Ghana is the CONSTITUTION Crafted by JJ Rawlings and his Cohorts. WINNER TAKES ALL! Nobody from the Media, Lawyers, Academia, Clergy, Politicians to the ordinary citizens is demonstrating for a change of the present Constitution. You can bring Presidents Obama, Clinton, Biden and all the best leaders the world has ever had and they will FAIL with the constitution that we are using. NDC and NPP have been in power from 1992 but we’re still complaining. There’s something fundamentally wrong. And that is the CONSTITUTION. Unless we rather demonstrate for it to be changed nothing can change.

Another Jerk. Is the government seated at the various Galamsey areas? The demonstrations are to draw the attention of our SLEEPING government seated at Jubilee House.

Moshe, the international community are interested in what is happening and so don't expect them to refuse buying gold from us.
Good idea though.

Another educated fool. Many of the protest that occurred in Washington DC were caused by dissatisfied black community, who would go ahead and demonstrate against Donald Trump while he took the office of the US presidency. Incidents like the shooting of unarmed black men, one significant event being the murder of George Floyd did not happen at the white house of District of Columbia. Yet many Americans including US democrats supported this protest which would eventually lead to Trump being impeached and voted out. They blame his racist comments on blacks for causing the death of Floyd. You see, something doesn't have to happen on site A before demonstrations could be embark. As long as it is a national issue, citizens can protest wherever and whenever they want. A very common location would be the capital where govt can feel it. I am surprised this idiot of a politician doesn't know this. As an ashanti, I am very disappointed for how unintelligent some of our people are, especially those in politics.
