  Inasmuch as the clamour against this galamsey menace is needed, I deeply detest these SWEEPING declarations/calls (We are destroying our water bodies... we need to rise up and fight it, etc, etc) condemning or goading Ghanaians in general into some kind of vague resistance activity to it.
  First of all, these activities are being committed within certain SPECIFIC COMMUNITIES, in certain SPECIFIC REGIONS, by the coalition of certain SPECIFIC CRIMINAL ENTITIES (politicians, chiefs and individuals: local and foreign), operating by a dubious method; cleverly orchestrated, and effectively clandestine, to destroy these water bodies. It is incumbent on the security agencies to devise an equally potent antidote to crush and quash the menace.
  In this regard, what exactly should your average Ghanaian do? Since it seems to be a youth-oriented activity, should the youth of the northern, volta, and central regions take up arms and rush to fight the youth in the culprit regions?
  It is worrying enough that these stupidity is still in effect upon all that is being done to curb it; It is unspeakably annoying when your average Ghanaian is invariably indicted in these campaigns against it!

  Galamsey isn't a curse., it's crime. There's no reason for that crime to be going on while the authorities fold their arms and watch. There's no reason for that crime to go on while the chiefs who are the custodians of the lands that have been hijacked by galamsey operators sit at their palaces and sing false praises of the same incompetent and thieving politicians who derelict in enforcing the laws of the land, enforcement that could have ended galamsey long ago had these politicians and authorities enforced the laws against galamsey.
