This confirms why the government should not, never renew any goldmines lease in Ghana, it should be Ghanaian or Ghana government ownership, period. Above all, there is no legal obligation anywhere in the world to renew a contract or lease, Tarkwa Goldfields mining company should pack their bags and leave Ghana next year, we are fixing our country, bye bye, enough of slavery, poverty, corruption and lies, the slaves have seen the light, bye bye.

Do you know the work Goldfields Ghana did for the mine to come this far? Without Goldfields Ghana, both the Tarkwa mine and the Damang mine wouldn't have been what it is today. Ghana government, please renew the lease. Those of us in Tarkwa and its surrounding communities are for Goldfields.

@Tarkwaian.. You must be from South Africa. We are fixing our country. The mine employees will be the same. The difference will be leadership and ownership. God Bless Our Homeland Ghana.

There we go again. Today all the glib talk of managing our own affairs, tomorrow they will tell us of all sorts of circumstances and so we traded at a loss. The next, all the equipment are old and breaks down easily. Next the company is owning so much and can't pay workers etc etc. You know the usual narrative, meanwhile a huge amount of money missing here another purchase that cannot be traced or accounted for. We need to go borrow money to keep a national asset from going under.
Is this not the very familiar narrative?
These are the things I remember as far as government taking over a venture is concerned.
Over to the citizens.

WHY IS GHANA BUYING GOLD WHEN THE GOLD ORE CAN BE MINED IN OUR OWN SOIL? THIS MAKES NO SENSE TO ME.

WHAT ARE ANGLOGOLD ASHANTI, NEWMONT, AND OTHER FOREIGN GOLD MININING COMPANIES STILL DOING IN GHANA?

SAME QUESTION APPLIES TO HYDROCARBONS (CRUDE OIL), LITHIUM, BAUXITE MANGANESE, URANIUM, PLUTONIUM, DIAMONDS, ETC. WHAT'S WRONG WITH GHANA'S FUCKING LEADERS?

WHAT PREVENTS GHANA'S USELESS LEADERS FROM SETTING UP GHANA'S OWN GOLD AND DIAMONDS MINING COMPANIES THE LIKES OF ANGLOGOLD ASHANTI, NEWMONT AND OTHER FOREIGN MINING COMPANIES, AND MINING OUR OWN GOLD, REFINING OUR GOLD ORE TO INTERNATIONAL ASSAY STANDARDS, MOULDING OUR GOLD TO 12.5KG BULLIONS, SELLING THE BULLIONS IN THE TAX-FREE ARAB GULF STATES, ETC., AND DIVERSIFYING INTO INVESTMENTS OF GHANA'S MINERALS AND CRUDE OIL SALES PROCEEDS IN SETTING UP STRATEGIC MULTINATIONAL GLOBAL COMPANIES LIKE THE INDIANS ARE DOING WITH THE TATA GROUP AND LULU HYPERMARKET CHAINS SCATTERED ACROSS THE WEALTHY GULF ARAB STATES?

EVEN THE GULF ARABS HAVE BEEN DIVERSIFYING THEIR CRUDE OIL SALES REVENUES SO SPECTACULARLY WITH THE ACQUISITION OF UK AND EUROPEAN FOOTBALL CLUBS, HARRODS IN KNIGHTSBRIDGE LONDON, AND OTHER STRATEGIC GLOBAL BUSINESS UNITS, ETC.

DR. NKRUMAH STARTED THIS COMMONSENSE BUSINESS DIVERSIFICATION STRATEGY IN GHANA. WHY CAN'T GHANA'S FUCKING LAZY LEADERS DO THIS ABROAD LIKE THE INDIANS AND GULF ARABS HAVE BEEN DOING SO PROFITABLY ACROSS AMERICA, WESTERN EUROPE AND THE UK?

WHAT PREVENTS GHANA'S USELESS LEADERS FROM HAVING THE MINDSET OF GHANA'S ECONOMIC INDEPENDENCE BY DIVERSIFYING OUR GOLD AND OTHER RESOURCES EXPORT SALES REVENUES TO TAKE THE ADVANTAGES OF ECONOMIES OF SCALE BY HORIZONTAL AND/OR VERTICAL INTEGRATION OF GHANA'S MASSIVE RESOURCE AND ECONOMIC POTENTIALS?

GHANA'S FUCKING LEADERS CANNOT BE GOING FOOLING AROUND DOING "LALASULALA" AT THE IMF/WORLD BANK FOR LOANS AND HANDOUTS SINCE 1957 TILL THY KINGDOM COME.

How do we know whether most of it has not been stashed? Mahama is a politically pegged person because of his relationship with the president so how do we determine the real output without the country being shortchanged knowing his brother's kickback experience in the airbus scandal. We need to face facts as a people and not be carried away by these eye service.

Ibrahim Mahama is a pseudo businessman. We could all easily become as rich as he is if we had a brother who is a president of a country.

Can't wait to see if locally owned miners compete with foreign owned ones?
Currently production low
This will reduce noise.
Please pay the workers well.
No shortcuts

We need to proof to outside world our owned mines can do it.
Typical African curse
Politicians and owners get rich quickly Loot the mine
Exploration is reduced
Investment on the mine reduced
State takes the money from the mines for other activities
Production starts dropping over the years
Once the commodity prices reduce the mine collapses
This happened to State Gold Mining Corporation Zimbabwe
Zambia DRC and even black owned mines in South
Africa
Need to work hard and disapprove doomsayers
Current local owned miners we watching you Good luck

We also need value addition.
