Hosi must read this. His convenient analyses, using organised companies to battress his theory falls flat in the face of this reportage.
Hosi, where you dey, come explain.
He will not come anywhere. What can you do? Fool
Where is that old lady with a bottle of milo drink claiming it to be galamsey water? Barker Vormawor is missing in action. Key thief is no where to be found
Hello youth of Ghana. You can take your own life with medicine..........for instance 15 paracetamol at once. Or combine medicine and akpeteshie or weedicide.
@ Abena
Thank God He didn't bless Ayigbes with any mineral resources. They will continue to be 2nd Class citizens of Ghana. Volta Lake will continue to carry them away every year.
@ Nana who made Ewes second class citizens and who are first citizens. I guess you believe we Akans are first class citizens. What makes us so special when our people can not even speak English properly compared to the Ewes ...

@Nkwa Kwame, perhaps your people are those who cannot speak English properly. Akans cherish their Culture, including language, and are proud to showcase it everywhere. Do same for your tribe.
Master ayigbe people are blessed with many minerals more than any region in ghana only that their leaders are fool and selfish to allow anybody to touch to destroy their environment and water bodies.
Lithium, iron arl, cl ...

John Dramani Mahama is cursed to be a President of this nation. Very soon his name will be history and all that he has looted with his family members will vanish like a burst balloon.

Master it's nonsense and annoying, that does the chiefs and other opinion leaders there doing to avert the problem.
They own the land, they gave out the land for galamseyer. Blockheaded leaders
the ndc is a galamsey govt.
Galamsey and its water pollution wasn't a problem ever since in this country until npp government led by Nana addo.
What are talking about
The water pollution started from ex president Atta Mills era
From 5 to 10 years from now,cancer will be ravaging the area like crazy.Lord have mercy!
So what are the Chiefs and their people doing about this, are they waiting for government. If they rise up and fight this canker relentlessly as a community it will stop.
Tell Mahama to go and drink that water himself. Mahama is just not good enough for us as a country.
It is your father rather deserves that water ,
When Akuffo Addo was issuing mining licence rough rough were you not in this country.
What are you telling foolish chiefs and other opinion leaders in those areas who are gi ...

Talk,talk, but no action!!! Solution: Execute all arrested galamseyers, especially the Chinese.
Water for gold

This mahama guy is a scammer
Fake news, this was first published in June 2024

I weep for this country bcos not too distant into the future drinking water will be no more
