Mahama is a visionary leader my foot.
And with all your giant literacy, do you think we should spend money to train people and pay them to do this work? TV stations gives updates almost everyday on the state of our waters
HA HA HA HA HA HA HA THIS IS LIKE USING FOXES TO SACK CATS FROM YOUR ANIMAL FARM. THEY ARE BOTH THIEVES.
No way. JM I voted for you but as for this one di3. Why don't you use the military or police.
These are faces if desperate people who will do anything to survive.
Why not save money y using the soldier staying at the bar ...

You were actually voting for this kind of stuff. They will keep coming up
This Foolish NPP GHANAWEB Caption of this News is Shameless..... NPP GHANAWEB no amount of your Jandam will work... Ghana is moving forward ever.
NDC FOOT SOLDIERS..
NDC GORO BOYS..
CREATING EMPLOYMENT FOR THE NDC GORO BOYS..
Are our leaders really serious? Seriously, u are using civilians to monitor and combat illegal miners who are armed ?And this government call this a flagship program? I leave it there .
You will be ashamed. It will be successful. You idiots can bleed to death. Bawumia will not come to power
Bawumia coming to power is all your gripe? Be srious.
Training in what? What training are they receiving?
Just be bold and hav that political will to stop your own NDC cohorts who hav taken over from NPP regarding illegal mining
The best is to arrest Wontumi and jail that fool. Destroy his Akunta mines. An animal like him.
Eric,go ahead andarrest Wontumi if you have any evidence he has committed a crime.Nonsense.
Bad move. These guys may end up making the ndc unpopular. They can't do the job.
I think the right way to go is to use the chiefs and the asafo. With that approach all the bad chiefs involved will be exposed and dealt wit ...

Is this nonsense in the NDC manifesto or another afterthought?
Ndc are desperate to find jobs for their boys before they vent their anger on their leadership. Our military cum police couldn't stop galamsay so what makes Loud mouth Kofi Buah-Armah thinks by recruiting these Ndc fool soldi ...

Ghanaian politicians, both NDC and NPP, are not serious about the fight against galamsey because their party members are the ones destroying the environment in the name of the senseless gold mining activities. They are benefi ...

Mahama should use his head. Ahhba ! How long were these guys trained to handle the galamsey menace? Challey let’s treat Ghana like it belongs to all of us.
Idiot's can mork this initiative but I believe JDM know what he is up to. The results is what matters.
The Naysayers will be put to shame at the end I know.
When has Jdm done anything right?He is naturally incompetent period.
Why are you guys prejudicing?Let them start the work before we comment.Please have faith in them.Criticism is too much in Ghana.
Why didn't you have faith in Bawumia ?
Ooh Reset paa be this.We fire teachers nurses and employ water guards misplaced priorities as a country
Better to start something as small as this than always speaking big grammer. Even God started creation from an atom, and life from a cell. Nay sayers should grow up
It's a great decision by Mahama as these individuals were selected from mining communities across the country. If anybody is going to be sincere in fighting galamsey, it's definitely those who're directly affected. Great job, ...

NDC is doing very very well and I am happy. Fellow Ghanaians please ignore the silly comments of bleeding NPP rats. That their useless Bawumia will not come to power. He will only be dancing till they Kingdom come. Kwasea
@Yussif.You are an idiot.Why do you want people to listen to you but want others to ignore comments from the Npp?Who are you at all,you son of a cow?
This move will not yield any better results. So don't waste taxpayers money on it.
You are not God. Shut your fucking mouth
This is a shame to our military and others who couldn't fight galamsey but government has to employ additional guards. Although it has created job but is a waste of resource.
Eeiii Ghana ade3 akye 3ne gyemiii. Seriously it is time we stop building schools and start building Mental Hospitals. Mr declare state of emergency on our river bodies and forest reserves and stop.........
They will provide 24 hour protection for our water bodies. This begins the implementation of the 24 hour economy promised. A promise fulfilled.
It's a sham. What a shame! Ghanaians have been deceived
It is your stupid father that has been deceived not Ghanaians. Micro minority
I will never be surprised seeing such a headline. Npp ghanaweb owner Mr ayew afriyie we know you and the motive behind buying ghanaweb. Keep doing npp with your newly acquired news portal. Foolish nppigs .
The introduction of blue water guards is very nauseating and not thought through idea . If security agents armed with sophisticated weapons can not combat galamsers how can the blue water guards do? I am not an NDC member or ...

The joke of the year until now. Really? Any way I am expecting many more more of such jokes in the coming days as reality finally sinks in.
One will be the nebulous concept of 24 hours economy
Mahama's concert party.
What is the work of navy?
Good question
And who is going to guard the Blue Water Guards. Don’t we have enough security system in Ghana to do this job? Are the soldiers there for external protection only. What about the police. You see, in Ghana we fancy creating ...

@ Fifi Afriyie. You are an NPP man just criticising on political lines to make the government unpopular. It will not wash. Your stupid Bawumia will not come to power. Kwasea. Do you think we are in 2016? Silly ass
Bush’s, please don’t call me leases because you don’t know me. I am not a partisan person and if you really follow me you will see that I have condemned the NPP more than the NDC. I only tell the truth where it belongs. ...

Busia,
I meant “don’t call me kwasea” not “lease”. Sorry about the topographical error.
Gone are the days when you needed heavily built macho men to stop crime and restore security. In this modern world, it's intelligence that is needed. Wait till you see the results, don't judge a book by it cover. Boys and gir ...

Man, these are hungry folks who are going to collect bribe to get rich and make things worse. They find Mahama and co stealing and living big and they will be foolish not to cash in. Who cares about this country?
Even NUGS can govern the country better than this NDC party under John Mahama.
Good initiative.. the locals can do that work perfectly..
Part of the job creation.. May the Ancestors protect you and your government JM.
The entire attempt by Mahama/Armah Buah stinks so much. Why not abolish the LI that permits mining in the forest reserves, including those currently operating there; prosecution of those know to be illegally operating like Ak ...

Another joke by Politicians. Why don't we use the Military Army,is Galamsey not a War against the people of Ghana. Is our very existence not threatened by this uncontrolled mining activity.
This dirty partisan politics is destroying Ghana. When the previous government was fighting the galamsey NDC was using that as a tool against for campaign. Look now!
Good idea, JM visionary leader
STUPIDITY at its highest. Even the military and police couldn't so how can these men and women?.NDC you have started making voters regret big time. You have kowtowed.Bullshit.....Moonkye-bin
Mahama please don't send these people to go and die. Are you going to pay them all what. Is this your 24 hrs economy. You are a joker.
I don't support this approach. It won't work. Even armed soldiers with the coercive powers of the state on operation Vanguard and Galamstop failed woefully. It became another money making channel for corrupt soldiers. These ...

Mahama,we don't need crab collectors but we'll built and able men to fight the galamseyers. Better get them baskets for their catch. Apuuuuuuuu
Galamseyers in uniforms God save Ghana
You sack properly recruited public servants just because you said there is no funds in the public purse but you want to satisfy your NDC foot soldiers by creating useless jobs to drain the public purse. You will pay for it de ...

Any effective initiative to stop 'galamsey' and save our forests and water bodies should be seen as a step in the right direction. However, measures that are obviously 'dead-on-arrival', such as putting up unarmed and ill-tra ...

The NDC party is made up of Educated Illiterates, Kobolors/Truants, Hooligans, Ignorant and Gullible folks, Confidence Tricksters, Blatant Liars, Blackmailers and Sycophants in Academia at UG and UCC
It's a good initiative the government should equipped them with the necessary things like radio, cameras gun and if possible bullets proofs vest.
I remember when water bodies were being taken care by ministry of health. ...
