Water and air are the most important commodities on earth, not oil and not money. The Chinese have polluted their cities with smog and respiratory diseases are on the rise. So do you think they care about polluting rivers in ...

There are no laws in Ghana to protect property. The lawyers condone with people to plunder
other peopl's properties, especially lands. It's no wonder that Chinnese have joined the fray to destroy Ghana's land. Ghanaians mus ...

Or maybe I should say our president is on vacation. A perpetual one. If a president wants, this illegal activity can be stopped within 24 hrs. A donkey however wouldn't know what to do
These Chinese activities will kill the local inhabitants who live in the River Tano Basin .. through pollution poisoning. Do Ghanaians know about the Chinese and pollution?
I can't believe that our people don't value their lives? How on earth should we sell our lives to these Chinese for some peanuts? Who will stand up and fight for us?
Ed, "who will stand up and fight for us", you ask. Certainly not our political and tribal leaders. It's time for the good people of Ghana to assert their power directly.
I blame our President and his government. If they were "serious", they would have put in place strict laws that would jail local chiefs and officials who collude with these Chinese (and other foreigners) and Ghanaians who pol ...

Ghana people cannot reason why ?. How can you allow Chinese crooks to exploit your resources, you will leave to regret one day. Can you do so in China even they have no regard for you as a human being......................
the Okyehene will use the money from the illegal mining taking place behind his palace to build roads and schools for his subjects.
I always felt pity for my country when I heard foreigners destroying our environment. Due to corruption, our leaders are no more respected even by foreigners. The whole world it is only in Ghana foreigners doesn't regard the ...

CANT YOU TAKE A GUN AND SHOOT THESE CHINESE ONE BY ONE? IF YOU DONT STAND UP FOR YOURSELF. EVEN GOD WONT STAND UP FOR YOU...
Can the villagers shoot these wicked people on sight? That is the only language they would understand.
These same stupid traditional elders encouraged slavery. The chinese give them peanuts and poison their drinking water. How stupid can some Africans be in this day and age.
IT A SHAME GHANAIAN LEADERS CONTINUE TO ALLOW THIS WAY OF BAD DECISION CONRINUE TO RUN IN THIS COUNTRY BECAUSE OF LOOT TO SHARE MENTALITY
FIGHT WITH THEM TO TEACH THE MAHAMA LED NDC A LESSON. AFTER LOOTING THE NATION'S COFFERS THIS USELESS GOVERNMENT HAS BROUGHT THE CHINESE INVADERS TO DESTROY OUR LAND AND OUR RIVERS.
Take these Chinese and their Ghanaian colaburators one by one guerilla style and the damage been done to our rivers will stop .
Ghanians are soo stupids we will end up in slavery.Chinese really..... what is wrong with everybody in our nation.God help us.
Stop the mining activities along the Tano River immediately and withdraw the mining licenses of the reckless Chinese miners. Water is a basic necessity of all the communities in the Tano basin. We should not allow a few selfi ...

hmmm. so what is wrong with the blackman?
I weep for our dear nation.
What are we hearing and reading can President Mahama and his Ministers go to China and destroy Chinese rivers in search of Gold and Diamond time will tell. Ghannian's will take the law into their own hands one day.
The chief and the elders knew something about it they are just playing innocent
Oh my God
is not abt chinese is abt stupid ghanaians leaders
I feel despondent and sick in my stomach, how Ghanaian can sit down for this money and power hungry nation of China to invade Ghana and other African countries. I WEEP / WAIL for GHANA and AFRICA, I cry a CRY of desperation a ...

So the people there want President Mahama to come drive away the Chinese. Don't they have sense to act? Where are their chiefs and the rest? What a country.
Look here guys i am not sure why these Chinese are allowed to do what is happening in the country now. The older people want to destroy Ghana before they die. Can they do some of the things they in China. Go back to China and ...

DIDN'T INUSAH FUSEINI TAMALE SOUTH MP PROMISED THAT WAS THE END OF ILLEGAL MINING DURING HIS TENURE AS A MINISTER? OMG
What is the army for if not to defend our country against foreign invaders? Send in the army to round up all these illegal miners and if they are armed and resist, fight fire with fire. What are waiting for?
Hier again another proof Ghana is a failed state
They been arrested and freed for even owning illegal guns,they take our money and later lend us our money and our leader sit and enjoy the left overs.sorry brothers that's the fact
With the right system of government in Ghana like the Switzerland type with all the political parties having a hand in at the same time.These unfortunate things can be avoided.The Swiss system of government is good for Ghana. ...

So, does it mean we have no government in Ghana to weed out these Chinese illegal miners once and for all? What a shame? I am disappointed in this government.
Ti is a culture in the ALAN community to turn a blind eye on the suffering of own their people
I was under the illusion that we had solved this illegal mining menace, especially the despicable involvement of the Chinese! Do we ever learn any thing at all!! Who allows these Chinese into Ghana in the first place?
Can so ...

I am really mad. Who invited these Chinese over here? and who gave them the concession? What at all is wrong with the Ghanaian?
Mahama should deal with Chinese evil against Ghanaians but President Mahama has rather released more armed robbers from prison into the society. He has no vision of leading Ghana.
We live in our own country and are tormented by Fulani herdsmen. We live in our own country are tormented by Chinese illegal miners. Does Ghana have any leadership at all? Where will this be allowed in this whole wide world?
Tell these near human creatures called Chinese to go home. They have invaded Africa to plunder our natural resources. ....they stink and are extremely exploitative.
The only people responsible for this disgraceful act are the DCE and the chiefs themselves. They have their share and can never denied knowledge of the mining activities. The scale of corruption of leaders is so unimaginable. ...
