I hope the minister will also look at Ghanaians who are collaborating with these foreigners to cause such havoc to the country. I am entreating the honorable minister to come out with serious punishment that will be melted ou ...

Hypocrisy!!!!
What did these people say when Aisha Hueng was deported? Now it's okay to just deport galemseyers ?
Minister as for this one you got it so wrong.
Jail them and use them to build our poor roads as hard labour.
Just deporting them to go and their gains at the expenses of the nation,instead of jailing them.ghana is doomed now.they will be now coming more..what a foolish man.ghana arm forces take the nation now from these criminals.
Papa Minister what will your policy do to the African who does not need to go through immigration formalities to enter the country. Let's be serious with the galamsey issue .
Is this better ? Not to prosecute but deport? Once you deport them, they come back; like Aisha Huang did . Maybe when we prosecute and imprison them, they’d be deterred
Whose nonsensical idea is that?
Jail them and use them as free farm labourers first before you deport them!
I'm so disappointed. You mean, you catch someone destroying our environment and you'll "catch and release"? Come again, Mr Minister, it looks like you are being too tolerant of crime.
Hon. Minister please come again. I suggest you liaise with the venerable Attorney General to look critically into all legal provisions to come out with something better.
Once illegal mining is frowned on by our laws, we can ...

Oh, thanks, minister
I come, I try my luck
I get gold or I get free ticket back home
谢谢, xiexie
Muntaka thanks that's great idea so his country people can continue to come and do lucrative galamsey business and then back home and back to Ghana for the next four years. Thank you mahama afa
Mahama should sack this Ministry of Interior immediately. He clearly hasn't got a clue and is unwilling to fight galamsey. You mean you catch galamsey culprits and send them home. Eiìiiii. Naaahhhh!!!!! And a Ghanaian will ...

With what Muntaka is saying, anyone can assume that it's the government behind the galamsey. Catch the person send him home and let him come back and deplete the forest for the politician. A revolving door of open galamsey. T ...

Bogus policy. I'm for NDC , but Ghana first
SO MR. MINISTER YOU'D SEND THE FOREIGNERS HOME AND PROSECUTE THE GHANAIANS????? I AM HEARING YOU RIGHT.
MR. MINISTER YOU ARE TAKING US FOR FOOLS BY TELLING US NO MORE PROSECUTION FOR FOREIGNERS. YOUR POLICY IS WORST THAN THE PREVIOUS GOV'T

Deportation worse than prosecution?
Arresting an alien and deporting him for engaging in a criminal activity such as galamsey or cutting trees in the hinterland is unconstitutional. The criminal has to have his day in court.
Why? There is a possibility o ...

I said it.Muntaka is not fit for this job.With our porous borders you deport criminals destroying our livelihoods.
Madness
I don't agree with the Hon minister. Defaulting the laws, one must be prosecuted and after serving the jail sentences, be deported.
HONOURABLE MINISTER THE BEST THING TO DO FIRST IS TO JAIL THEM AND THE SERVING THE SENTENCE YOU DEPORT THEM
Minister,don't just deport them.Prosecute and jail them to serve their teams before deportation. You are breaking the law.Use the existing law to deal with them.
Why don't they face prison terms and after deported?
Who gave minister the power to change laws in gh?
Will this stop them from destroying our water bodies and forests? Masa jail them.
You don't have that authority. They must be prosecuted, jailed with hard labour and used on our farms.
Didn't Aishawuan came back to do the worse when she was deported.
Punish them and their Ghanaian counterparts before you deport them.
This is foolish . You prosecute and imprison before you deport. What will be the detergent if we simply depart them .
A very bad policy idea. They must be prosecuted, heavily fined & jailed before deportation.
First and foremost, whoever came up with this idea did not think it through. Ghana is is not a lawless country and the courts are there for a purpose (although sometimes one wonders if they know this). How do you prove that ...

If you just deport them, then they will come back. It's better to prosecute them first
This is not the best way to go. This approach will rather encourage more foreigners to come into the country. Every foreigner will rather risk, afterall if he is arrested he will be sent back and not prosecuted. Let the law d ...

This is not correct. They must be prosecuted and jailed with hard labour for 15 years and only then deported. It is ridiculous to just deport. After enriching themselves, destroying the water bodies and forests you send them ...

Mr Minister kindly prosecute all of them, no deportation.
The minister of interial seems to be too much in a rush in taking decisions. You're not going to trial foreigners who destroy our forest reserves but simply deport them with loot to go and enjoy in their country. Please resci ...

No, minister, I disagree. Give them quick daily prosecution (which should be completed within one month) and jail them thereafter for 10 years.
Hmmm it a bad policy , but we all know how powerful some of the countries this criminals are @ China, India etc. They can destroy your economy just like the US Donald Trump is doing. So a little bit of diplomacy is needed. Ja ...
