If this is how GoG ministers are calculating percentages I finally understand everything I was wondering about so far. LOL
What is the cost of the destruction of our river bodies? What is the cost of reclaiming mercury and cyanide-polluted lands? What is the cost of human lives lost by drinking polluted waters? What is the cost of the destruction ...

You see these people? Critical questions worth asking:-
1. This galamsey hazard and corona virus, which is more deadly?
2. Didn't they shut down everything à la COVID then, further enforced with powers of arrest?
3. What ...

Where is Koku Anyidoho. He has gone into hiding. The next time you hear from him, he will say JM invented Galamsey.
Minister, you are criminal and deserve to be jailed
The Nana Addo Bawumia galamsey Economy of Ghana will collapse. Hmm, these are the people we elected into office
It is true
I can see that there some smart people in Ghana, though, the foolish ones re more than the smart ones.
China is the largest exporter of gold globally and its waters are super clean why Is does this water destruction mostly happen in shithole countries like ghana
Gold producer *
Abu Jinapor is very stupid. Nobody is calling for a ban on mining in Ghana. What people are calling for, and we all agree on, is a ban on irresponsible, illegal mining. A menace that is destroying our farm lands, our national ...

They have come with their tactics. Ghanaians will not fall for this again. Same tactics for E-Levy
Eeeeiiiii Ghana we aŕe finished. So we have such ministers who are supposed to serve us in our midst. We are doomed.
Greedy and selfish politicians like are the reason why galamsey cannot be stopped. Where did you get the money to buy all the houses and cars you own? God will deal with you criminals for sacrificing Ghanaian lives for your p ...

The minister probably has some interest in the mining sector?
Small scale mining is contributing 21% (i.e. 40% of 54%) to foreign exchange earnings
*21.6%
For every dollar gained from mining gold, we have to spend more than $10 to clean up our rivers, provide clean drinking water, provide drugs and medication for those who suffer from mercury and cyanide poisoning, undertake re ...

He used a dishonest calculation. They are all galamseyers.
The minister is directly benefiting from galamsey so he cannot stop. The citizens have to take action themselves to stop this galamsey activities.
It's a miserable argument he is making. We have neglected the Agric sector, hence Galamsey. I think he is complicit in it as well.
Agriculture is the life blood of any economy or civilization for that matter. Continuing will ...

Ghana's economy can thrive without small-scale and illegal gold miners who continue to use crude methods of gold extraction. The cost (financial, etc) to Ghana of this menace far exceeds how ever much Jinapor thinks they add ...

Lol.
Ghana is indeed been run by clueless, morons and idiots.
This guy is no leader. He says one stupid thing after another.
So we should destroy our water reserves and import water with the proceeds from galamsey. Akoa agyimi
It is very unfortunate for the minister to speak/talk like this. Sadly, he couldn't SUGGEST a single solution, other than "...continue the discussion". For how long? While our water bodies are being destroyed?

This man is very stupid. I don't understand how he is still a minister. He can only be a minister in an Akuffo Addo govt. If the govt does not act, the Chiefs should take control of the lands. This shows the incompetence of t ...

Ban mining near water bodies and forest reserves nobody said ban mining completely. This people are twisting the whole thing. They are unrepentant criminal gang.
How much does illegal mining contribute to the economy of Ghana? Ghana is not benefitting from the senseless gold mining activities in the country. It's individuals and foreigners who are benefitting from the illegal mining a ...

The threat we face now from small scale mining / galamsey is far more deadly than COVID-19. The current environmental threat will affect generation unborn. It is just a matter of time, it will explode in our face!!!
I don't know where this idiot was when the DOTARD who appointed him was campaigning against galamsey?
Look at this fool too. So we should desecrate our forests, pollute our waters, destroy everything for the sake of gold exports? Hiw stupid. How did Ghana survive in the past? Galamsey didn't exist when we were in secondary ...

Arise and fight this NPP govt. They want to kill all of us and destroy our children's future.

THIS IS EGOSYNTRISM. THIS MINISTER IS FILTHY RICH
HE DOESN'T CARE ABOUT THE POPULACE BECAUSE HES A GALAMSER HIMSELF. WICKED GOVERNMENT
He is an idiot! He has people mining for him so how will he support total ban?
The most useless minister aside Ofori-Attah.
This guy must be jailed. Where does all that monies from the huge percentage of gold go to?
Thief. You next home will be in the prison very soon.
The Lands Minister should be terminated, fined and imprisoned for his destructive role in Ghana's waterways, environment, food supply and health of constituents.
Dumb minister. Who's saying anything about legal mining? It is the illegal mining, stupid!
Really? That's a crap statement. If you cannot manage the economy, get out of the way. It's an abomination to destroy our water bodies for a "bowl of porridge." Same as eating the chicken that laid the golden eggs.

We are talking about controlled and regulated mining and not destruction of our waterways and bodies.
