It is only a crazy government, crazy leadership, corrupt, greedy and useless government that will renew any mining lease under this useless condition, between 5 -12 percent return on royalty. We are poor, and have been poor under this same agreement for rhe past100 years, that should tell any reasonable government that, that agreement is useless and of no benefit to the people, do not force it on the people by telling them it is good, you know you are telling lies, stop it fools. We need all our mining company's back to Ghana ownership, now that gold price is at all time high. We have the upper hand to negotiate for 60 percent not 12 percent but we should take them back under Ghana's ownership, period.

All African governments must take absolute control of our minerals for our own development, instead of giving them away for free.
Botswana negotiated for 50% of De Beers diamonds and is getting it.
General Acheampong took 55% of Ashanti Goldfields Corp for Ghana. Nkrumah established the State Gold Mining Corp comprising of the mines at Tarkwa, Prestea, Dunkwaw and Konongo. Ghana Should reestablish this company under DIHOC and make it the sole miner of our minerals.

One of the problems is Ghana is we leave public discourse to people devoid of industry expertise
Why don't Sir Sam Jonah and other mining related people be involved in this discussion.
Legal people think they know it all but sometimes know little.
Get views of those in industry too.Mining is not Galamsey everyone can dig easily Same with the petroleum sector which is more capital intensive.
How many years of exploration did it take before lithium deposits were discovered?

It's a good and a timely call by the I.E.A , in today's Ghana and judging from the kind of benefits our country has enjoyed through Gold bord, who would have think that a minister is pushing through a Bill in paliameny basically to mentain the criminal royalties system that our country have been subjected to since time in memorial!!!
Indeed our president really is smarter than the land and natural resources Minister, and that minister must be made to resign or be fired!!!!!

This time around Ghana first ohhhh
The Ghanaian youth are now more enlightened M
than ever !!!

So ministers sit up!!!!!
