Of course they will refuse. Most of us have no other choice than eat local products and hope beyond hope that we are not getting poisoned.

This is a clear sign that our problems have started as a nation and instead of tackling it together we are foolishly playing NDC and NPP. Both of them are making money whilst killing us slowly.

I told someone who was defending a political party about this issue that those poisons don't discriminate so he should not be supporting NDC or NPP about this issue.

I am of the view that hoteliers can come together establish a farm to cultivate vegetables, fish and other items they use in preparing food for their guests from abroad.
This information from the hoteliers has exposed how dangerous the galamsey pollution is.
In the past vegetable growers use mainly ground water from dugouts and natural water flowing from the ground, that are in gutters, but not affected by household efruence and litters.
Today all those sources are contaminated and can no more be used to water vegetables.

The bottom line is that tourists would eventually stay away from Ghana.

They read all the news about the massive environmental destruction in Ghana and the poisoning of our rivers and soil with heavy metals.

Yeah. The next in the chain of galamsey effects following this line of industry is tourists avoiding Ghana. Only God knows the complexity of the actual end effect of the unsustainable practice of galamsey.

I will be surprised if we talk about these effects now as if we didn't know as a whole country that they would arise as a result of galamsey.

This is how slavery happened. Some people were suffering from it..some were benefitting. Some didn't care be ause it didn't affect them and Some just wanted this abolished. Galamsay and slavery no difference. Very soon, these foolish leaders will build monuments to remember the casualties of gslamsay and blame.the Chinese for destroying our water bodies and our lands and thats why we have to flee the country. Cunts!

I thought majority of our fishes are from the sea.Apart from the tiny tilapias and herrings I don't think our rivers produce the other kinds of fishes.

The beginning of the end. If galamsey is not banned completely, Ghana will suffer like never before. Kidney diseases are on the rise everywhere. The government must wake up. Period. Silence means foolishness here.
