When when has small scale mining been for Ghanaian citizens alone? Is it a new law because both NPP and NDC governments did not seem to know.

Surprising, is this minister-designate telling us that successive Govts aren't fully aware of foreigners' engagement in galamsey? I'm surprised to hear him say that foreigners are not allowed to do it when in fact, foreigners are those actually permitted to do it. News of such activities is reported daily. Shame onto Ghana! Even in Accra, foreigners notably cHinese and nIgerians have taken over retail-trading completely. Nigerians in particular have now invaded Ghana through Christ and banking. God bless Ghana!

Mr. Minister designate, please come to Dunkwa-on-Offin and see things for yourself. The Chinese people your government brought to Ghana have taken over the small scale mining. Very soon they will be selling tomatoes on the streets. They now have shops where the sell machines used for galamsey. They operate illegal clinics and restaurants and there are so many Chinese prostitutes in the town servicing their male galamsey operators.

In America where the economy depends upon private sector participation registration of businesses take as long as ten to fifteen minutes at city hall counters. And licenses cost as less as between fiteen and twenty five dollars. Imagine how many Ghana can register per day to bring to the tax paying process. We must act wise and kind to ourselves in order to succeed as a nation.

The way to go forward to stop illegal mining in Ghana now is simply be bold enough to introduce a law banning all small-scale mining concerns in the country. The solution is not just the denial of foreign criminals the access to our solid metal mines in remote areas alone but also to equally deny the corrupt native individuals who illegally sell their concessions to illegal solid metal miners whose sole intention in the country is to carry on destroying our lands with the help of corrupt local chiefs and confused land owners. Galamsey in all forms is a menace to the country - it does not matter who practises it native or Chinese criminals and it is about time some sensible decisions got taken to ban it altogether.

I mean our highly cherished natural resources. My GOD. We cant go to their effing country and do that so why should they do it here. Hell if you over stay your visa in China you could face a possible prison sentence and subsequently deportation Im told yet they loiter on our streets and steal our natural resources with impunity and our law enforcement agencies look on without questioning them. Flipping idiots consider PANDA's as Chinese national treasure so no matter where one is born in the world it belongs to the Chinese government. Bullshit. Someone refer them to the history books. Ghana used to be called the GOLD COAST muthaf$@#s that means every single piece of Gold you dig, find, discover in this country belongs to the Ghanaian people so the better desist from illegal mining or face deportation. Hell they are engaging in something illegal ANYWAYS. That in itself is a crime. We just need to put the right people in power if we want our country to steer clear off these EXPLOITERS.
