The last time i paid a visit to the falls with some medical doctors from Denmark they just could not help admiling it wish there twas something similar back home for them in Denmark but came to realized that no it is not possible because the land back home is flat so there is no way they can have such a place but here are folks bringing it down well down to them

If it falls in a forest reserve then how come somebody is claiming ownership of that land?If it is true then the family must be compensated and it shd be made clear to them that it is a natural resource for Ghana.Or that family /families shld be paid some shares or royalties nd they will see the need to protect it themselves.

If it is true that the land belongs to them, then obviously they are not benefiting from the proceeds.
They must have some kind of royalties paid to them every month. All they are doing is just to put food the their table so if whoever is in charge of the falls can do that then the farming will stop. This is not rocket science.

Destroy everything around you so that tomorrow you will queue at the embassies of the western countries to seek visas to travel to those beautiful countries ok. For your information, those living in these countries are human beings like you. The only difference is that they use their brains very well to preserve and protect, and you, the black man, are a destroyer. Why??? I sometimes feel sad, can't you reason a bit??? If the land belongs to you, couldn't you have used other means to receive your share of the benefits???? The last time, I heard people were farming along the bank of the Bosomtwe Lake. We are nothing, but animals, excuse me.

If nothing is done about it posterity will never forgive this govt. It is no longer the property of the individual. It is a national asset and govt should have interest in it and stop them. Why are we so backward? Is that the only place to farm. People look unconcern for the trees being felled. Why are we so destructive? Where are our parliamentarians. Should they sit mute and look on for the destruction of nature like that. These are some of the things that put Eastern Region on the map of Ghana. The destroyers are all enemies to progress and must be stopped. Those people must be educated. Julius, do something because this your region and they are disgracing you. Mr. President don't sleep over this. Nature would not forgive this generation if we sit unconcern for it to be destroyed. What
is media doing about it. This where media is needed to play a major role to stop it. If the public is continually informed about its destruction people would come out to protect the place from being destroyed. What is the chief doing about it. Don't the people of the like people coming to the area to see the beauty of nature. Indeed we would be discribe as bachward and primitive if we sit unconcern. I have started mine you must also add your voice to it. Thank you.

Why do we trive in spoiling our resources like we are all stupid. For all these years, noone in the past and present Administrations has the sense to acquire all the Tourist Attractions for the National useage. Every Tourist Places should be Nationalised and if compensations are to be paid to landowners, they have to be paid. I am so tired of hearing everyday all these petty problems being magnified as State problems.

charcoal is not even used in USA except for picnics/ barbaque in park to cook beefburgers/ chicken or pigs!!!! And firewood you don't steal for free...I have 5-6 trees in my own yard that would produce enough wood to build a house. firewood should be gotten from legal cut trees..such as removing trees from roadside, powerline and gas line easement clearing, cutting to keep them from falling on your house...They are tree farms in usa to produce trees just for power poles or pulp for paper!

It is a nonsense to state that the Boti falls were discovered by a white Catholic priest.
The Boti falls were there long before that Catholic priest visited it. His visit was insignificant - local people knew the falls already.
If this Catholic priest publicised the fact that he had seen the falls it is no excuse to claim discovery.
We must rewrite our history books to purge them of insignificant references to 'discovery'. They are a gross distortion of history.
