    A mere promise to revoke license is an achievement. I get pained when people like you get a vote, because you do not think critically before voting. Ghana is doomed and will never develop with voters like you.

    What about mining licenses issued by the past NDC government, that’s under you Mahama, your administration. Aren’t you going to revoke them as well.

    I mean why is NDC and Mahama trying very hard to attribute illegal mi ...

    @Don, JM said licenses issued under NPP for mining in Forest Reserves, it means the NDC never issued any for Forest Reserves.If you know anyone with licence given under NDC name them so we go after them.

    To be reviewed or be revoked, just asking?

  • Kwame Ghana 6 days ago

    Good move Mr. President but this should not be the basis to issue leases to people perceived to be ndc sympathisers and supporters.

  • Mark 6 days ago

    Please do it now. Too many mafias in the mining and forestry sector. Evil criminals.
    Be very careful who you appoint to such places. Most are into illegal mining and timber trade and they lobby to have their reps in there. T ...

    Who's going to know that their license has been revoked??
    Please broadcast the names and where they operate, and give the natives authority to stop them.
    Then proceed to ban the ones you gave while you were in power.

    @Kojois, what is the name of the company of JM's brother mining bauxite that JM gave him. No company exists like that and in anycase Ghana would have been better off than what the NPP did by handing over the bauxite to the Ch ...

    Mr President not only that, I want you to revoke the Goldfield Ghana as well. So we start on fresh page with rules and regulations which will benefit the Ghanaian youth as a whole.

    We are still waiting for action. So far, it has been commentaries. Talk Talk. As we speak, those wicked criminals are still in our forest mining. The earlier we move from talking to walking the talk the better.

    I don’t think the president is serious with mining issues. The NPP CEO is still at post. Ayisi should go and proper mining issues can be dealt with.
