GOLD SEIZURE...INSIDE JOB BY GH GOVT!
CONSPIRACY TO STEAL GARGANTUANLLY!
so a large quantity OF GOLD OF THIS NATURE IS BEING EXPORTED BY INDIVIDUALS OUTSIDE AND U MEAN TO TELL ME
THE GOVT WAS UNAWARE OF THIS? WILL THIS BE CLASSIFIED AS SMUGGLING AND IF SO, WHY DIDNT CUSTOMS NOTIFY THE GOVT?
THIS IS BULLSHIT. THE GOVT KNEW ABOUT IT. IM DAMN SURE SOMEONE IN MAHAMA'A ADMINISTRATION KNEW ABOUT THIS.
IF NOT MAHAMA HIMSELF, THEN WHO? ONLY Peter Bedzrah and Fredrick Kojo Essumang, operating under the corporate identity of
Omanye Gold Mining Ltd AND Vahid Moradi Moghaddam KNOW WHO THE GOVT INFORMANTS ARE OR IS.....
HOW DO YOU EXPLAIN THIS?..
At the airport, one Isaac Anakwa Asante, Head of Operations of Menzies Airline Handling Services which handled the aircraft from touchdown
to departure and who inspected the cargo before scanning by Nick TC-Scan reported sighting gold bars.
However, the Customs Division'S Instructions for the Dispatch of Goods (IDG) form entered the goods
as “mineral samples”. The pre-departure formalities were endorsed by Kwesi Avemee, a collector of CD/GRA and Albert Kan Dapaah,
a Narcotics Control Board (NACOB) official. While mineral samples do not attract tax liability, it was found unusual to have mineral
samples shipped in such tonnage.
TYPE "1.5 Tons Of Gold Bound For Iran Seized on Plane In Turkey" VIDEO ON YOU TUBE
GH IS ONE OF THE WORLDS TOP GOLD PRODUCERS. YET 25PERCENT OF ITS POPULATION LIVE UNDER 1 DOLLAR A DAY
Today's gold price = 1658.22 US
12 Troy Ounces in a pound x 3000? lbs.= 36,000 oz
1.5 tons of gold is worth 36,000 oz x 1658.22 = 59,695,920 USD.
MAHAMA, WHERE IS THE MONEY? MAHAMA IS INDIRECTLY HELPING IRAN DODGE ITS UN SANCTIONS. THE UN WONT BE HAPPY WITH GHANA OR MAHAMA
IF IRAN HASNT ALREADY BEEN PAID FOR THIS GOLD. THEN DONT EXPECT THE UN/HAGUE TO GET INVOLVED IN THIS MATTER
THAT MEANS, GH HAS LOST OUT ON ALL THIS MONEY....DUE TO OUR THE GARGANTUAN STUPIDITY OF OUR LEADERS, AGAIN....
FOR THE RECORD, IRAN CONDUCTS A LOT OF BUSINESS WIH TURKEY IN THE FORM OF OIL AND GAS.
SO WE NOW UNDERSTAND WHY TURKEY HAS POSITIONED THEMSELVES IN THIS GOLD SEIZURE ISSUE.
NEARLLY $2 BILLION WORTH OF GOLD WAS SENT TO DUBAI BY IRAN. SUCH TRADES HELP IRAN ESCAPE UN/WESTERN SANCTIONS AGAINST
IRAN. THESE SANCTIONS WERE IMPOSED BY THE UN OVER IRAN'S NUCLEAR PROGRAM. BY USING GOLD, IRAN CAN DODGE THESE SANCTIONS...
SO WHY IS GH HELPING THEM. MAHAMA, WAT DO U HAVE TO SAY FOR YOURELF ABOUT THIS? YOU DEY TORCH?

This is a pure inside job.It is so strange how an individual small scale mining company can ship 1.5 tonnes of gold in a single cargo. Can those authorities tell us the last time Anglo Gold made shipment of that magnitude

All of a sudden nonentities want to portray to the world how close they were to the late President.

Those who had to chat with him for one hour everyday, those Deputy Ministers who had to call him every morning before the man could even brush his teeth, and still those who would be called to the Castle by the late President to express his appreciation for job well done after they had gone to insult political opponents and JJ Rawlings in the media on his behalf. Shameless id.iots raising their egos

The shipper himself said the gold bars were worth 62 million dollars and government officials in order to pocket taxes on this gold said it has no commercial value. If the government is willing to know the truth, it should arrest all the custom officials. If a 10% tax if you accept the value put on by the shipper is 6.2 million dollars tax lost to the country because these thieves might have taken one million dollars bribe

I know a small-medium scale miner who can produce 15 kilos of gold per week. That makes 1.5 tonnes in 10 weeks.

Anglo gold, produces over and above this amount.

As an individual licensed buyer, you can buy froom small-medium producers (including galamsey operators) and end up with this quantity in less than two weeks.

The long and short of it is that it's not difficult for a licensed buyer to buy 1.5 tonnes of gold in Ghana.

Why can't our incompetent gov tell how much gold is being sent out of the country but we have to wait for Turkey to tell us? What else is being sent out like that? Crude Oil and Cocoa? Naana Yaw III stop making excuses.

I am not with you. At a rate of 15KG per week it would take 100 weeks, or say, two years, to produce 1.5 Tonnes. Still a good amount.

Because of people like Yaw who are ready to defend every corruption that that goes down in the country, that is why the people in power lie to us and takes everyone for granted. Why on earth would the government lie to us even when they knew Mills was on his death bed? After several months of a president's death, we the people don't even know the full details of his death. I can assure you that we will never know the truth about this gold smuggle. Ghana is pathetic.

How much were you paid to write this c***k and b**l story signed by Hon Mahama Ayariga3??? What do you take Ghanaians for ??? Fools ??? Our Head of State makes an emergency visit to Turkey immediately this issue crops up, all of a sudden , Ghana is widening its bilateral co-operations with Iran all os a sudden, and you ahve the guts to come to Ghanaians will this Bullshit ???
First of all do you know how much it casts to charter an airbus to pick up cargo from Ghana to Iran ?
If you know that, which fool on this earth will do that for minerals that have no economic value??
So one point is Clear, the Operation evaded TAX !!!
2) Parliament had know knowledge of this !!!
3) Do we realize what the consequences are to Ghana regarding the United Nations and the international Community which Ghana is a part of ???
I beg to differ with GHFUO, our leaders are not just stupid, they are thieves and selfish.
Dear Miss Sherry Aryetey, Do you know the definition of a Premium. If you don't then please kindly resign as Health Minister Designate !!! You talk about increasing tax base to Finance the NHIS and go ahead to talk about one time premium ? That one time payment shall then not be a premium but enrollment fees !1 I am sure you know that but trying to throw dust into the eyes of your fellow Ghanaians to cover up for one stupid suggestion made by your party !!!
What on earth is Happening to Ghana ? Where did we find these blockheads, or the question is, do the think the people of Ghana are blockheads ???

Ghanaians are simply corrupt and nothing can stop them unless all these criminals are erased. Only the doom will be believe in this story.

What is the role of the Ghana government. Who is in controll of the state institutions? How can an institution come out to say they have no idea about the transportation of 1.5 tons of Gold without any initial investigation?

No person has the amount money in Ghana to buy and ship such sum of Gold to test it in Dubai. It sounds like the money used to sponsor the election of the NDC is been giving back without any trace.

Ghanaian leaders are greedy bastard but i don`t also understand why still people follow these criminals, if they claim to love Ghana?

To whom did Mr. Isaac Anakwa Asante report to, and what action did he take?

Ghanaians have suffered a lot financially and economically and many of us died uneccessary on foreign lands because of mis-management of our God-given resources like this by our leaders and Ghanaians in trusted positions.

Is this the way that oil newly found oil resource going to be managed?

Was the gorvernment not aware of this deal?

I doubt not! I reserve my comments.

Akans are not the only corrupt tribes in Ghana. For real, Abi?

Ghanaians need cogent explanations and we are waiting to see if heads are going to roll to serve as deterrent to others in high positions who are shirking their responsiblities!

Enough is Enough!

Fellow Ghanaians, This revelation about the Ghana's Gold locked up in a plane in Turkey shows clearly our vulnerability as a country to protect our resources. Nobody is preventing any Ghanaian from holding gold resources but this must be properly accounted for as part of the country’s wealth.
What has happened to the inspection and oversight responsibility of the Minerals Commission?
What is happening to the PMMC which previously was declaring the amount of gold it bought from the public domain?
What is parliament and other advocates doing to enrich our laws based on new knowledge instead of encouraging partisan activities amongst technocrats and top civil servants thereby shirking their responsibilities
The Minerals commission must stop hounding the established mines and focus on protecting our entire mineral asset. There are enough laws and policies currently which if enforced can give Ghana good success.
Our chiefs and parliament and government appointees must stop paying lip service to foreigners and illegal miners raping our ecosystem.
During the period leading to the elections you could hear surprisingly candidate after candidate promising to help the Galamseyers degrade our forest in search of Gold. What a Shame.
Ghanaians should not doubt where the 1.5t of Gold came from. It is coming from the Gala say activities.
SOLUTION
1. All Gold found in Ghana must be sold to the PMMC who must establish offices in every district. There are enough Metallurgists coming out of our tertiary institutions without jobs. This should be a presidential special initiative.
This can create immediately over 600 jobs for our graduates
SGS can be asked to assist.
