  The people of sekondi and Takoradi should come out in their numbers to attack all galamsey installations along the pra river,they should also attack this Chiefs who ve allocated this lands to the miners,how long can they wait and suffer in the hands of this greedy individuals who perhaps ve sunk boreholes in their homes and making the General population suffer Hi?we should move away from complaints to actions and resistance against wrongs,let's protect the environment from irresponsible fools call Chiefs,most of them ve become society and community enemies.

  it seem President Akufo addo is unconcerned about galamsey issue or activities in the Country .He should emulate the boldness of president Trump in fighting for his country.

  Any economic activity that disrupts supplies essential for life must be discontinued until operators can show safer and assured ways of prospecting the environment and supplies essential for life.

  It is very sad to observe how Ghanaians don't value the environment. In the name of economic development, Ghanaians are carelessly destroying our forests and water bodies under the very watch of Mineral Commission and EPA. Why do the Mineral Commission give license to all manner of persons to destroy farming lands, forest reserves and water bodies but don't ensure that the same people reclaim the destroyed lands? This is very shameful. Our politicians are falling us big time.

  Anybody who organise coup d'etre in Ghana would be successful because the politicians are there just to destroy our country. They are just scratching each other's back. How could small group of people put the whole security and health of the country at risk while people that are paid to enforce the laws keep watching.

  Dry season is an annual phenomenon,where the rivers might have low level of water.But truely speaking the Galamsey has destroyed most of our River bodies an Forests.Pra,Offin,Volta Birim,Oda,etc have all suffered due to the Galamsey and if Ghana does not prevent such such acts a time will come where these rivers may dry up.Already most of the Rivers have been polluted.

  SOMETIMES, WHEN I READ THESE STORIES, I ASK MYSELF WHETHER OUR COMMISIONS ARE ONLY INTERESTED IN WEALTH OR GOLD. DO THE SECURITY INSTITUTIONS ONLY INTERESTED IN THIEFS WHILE THESE GALAMSEY OPERATORS ARE KILLING PEOPLE UNKNOWINGLY. WHEN I WAS GROWING UP WE DID NOT HAVE POTABLE WATER SO WE HAD TO DO WITH UNTREATED WATER FROM LAKES OR RIVERS. IF THE RIVER IS POLLUTED A CHILD WILL DRINK IT AND BEFORE YOU REALISE, HE OR SHE MAY BE DEAD OR IMPAIRED FOREVER. WHAT THE ENERGY OR THE MINERALS COMMISSIONS OR THOSE IN CHARGE OF MINING DOING ?IN GHANA ALL WE KNOW IS COMPLAINING. WE KNOW WHAT IS AILING US AND ALL WE CAN DO IS COMPLAIN AND COMPLAIN AS IF WE ARE WAITING FOR THE WHITE MAN TO TELL US HOW TO PROTECT OUR WATER RESOURCES AND REGULATE OUR MINING ACTIVITIES. I HAVE BEEN READING ABOUT THIS SO CALLED GALAMSEY FOR A WHILE AND ASK MYSELF WHETHER WE HAVE INSTITUTIONS TO MITIGATE THINGS HARMING THE COMMUNITIES. ARE WE ONLY INTERESTED IN MONEY AND CARED LESS ABOUT WHAT AILS US? WAKE UP GHANA. WE THINK WE KNOW THE PROBLEM, WRITE ABOUT, READ IT AND GO TO SLEEP AS LONG AS AT THE END OF THE DAY YOU COLLECT YOUR PAY AND THE CHILDREN ARE DYING BY DRINKING POLLUTED WATER FULL OF CHEMICALS. GHANA IS LAWLESS. YOU SEE THE POLICE AND THE ARMY DRESS UP IN THEIR COLOUFUL INIFORMS TO SHOW OFF WHILE THINGS ARE GOING WRONG IN GHANA. TO THE SECURITY OFFICIALS GALAMSEY IS NON OF THEIR BUSINESS AND THE COMMUNITIES ARE COMPLAINING AND TO THE POLITICIANS, IT IS BUSINESS AS USUAL. WAKE UP GHANA. DO SOMETHING NOT COMPLAINING ALL THE TIME.
