Thank God we have Ghanaian government, that is, NPP administration which takes matters concerning foreigners who violate our laws serious. Notorious NDC government did care about environmental degradation caused by these illegal mining operations in Ghana. These Chinese are evil people. All what these Chinese care in this world is money. Flush them out and send back to China.

May God bless NPP government to carry out the wishes of Ghanaian people. The glory of Ghana is back. We have our government.

U can't walk on someone's piece of land without good reason if U go abroad, but in Ghana we have been betrayed by these useless primitive traditional leaders.
We have ourselves to blame because we are people who do not want change in our primitive culture. All around the world many countries continue to improve by changing their culture(the way of life) but in Africa we do not want change and we are left behind. Others have life expectancy of 85, but our's is below 60, all because we still believe in superstition, miracles, etc instead of the scientific way of solving problems.

Right. You said it all. It's true that we refuse to think and plan strategically for the future and what that means is that those who fail to plan for the future have no place in the future. What's more sad is that we attribute everything that happens to witchcraft while others are thinking scientifically. Failing to plan is the best plan to fail in whatever we hope for.

Filthy immigration officers, stationed at our border points, shameless, greedy chiefs with multiple wives and concubines, morally bankrupt Minerals Commission Officials, EPA Officials who passed through the University but didnt allow the University to pass through them, unpatriotic, morally bankrupt Police Officers, pretentious National Security Officers, dirty, unscrupulous politicians and Members of parliament and other powerful personalities are all blameable for allowing these men of straw Chinese illegal miners to invade our forests, rivers and lands to destroy our heritage fought for us by our great, great grandfathers.

We should fight them with all our will and might forever.

How did these useless Chinese criminals enter Ghana to loot our natural resources, pollute our rivers and destroy our environment ? Just ask our greedy and very very corrupt Immigration officers posted at various entry points of Ghana !! And do you think these criminal Chinese will be dealt with according to law ? Please ask our greedy and very very corrupt police officers and magistrates who are only interested in accepting bribes. Mark my words, these crimnal Chinese who are NOTHING in their native China will be freed after they have given a few cedis as BRIBE. Ghana is a useless country where Ghanaians are SLAVES in their OWN country to Lebanese, Syrians, Indians, criminal Chinese, Turks and whatnots ! So sad !!

Of course we are falling over ourselves to board the next plane to borrow our own money,at high interest rates to repair the harm done to our environment!
Who can be taken in by this ritual of arresting the Chinese and local collaborators and setting them free after a few days?

The Western Regional Police Commander should kindly go to Sefwi Bopa, a town in Sefwi Akontombra Constituency.TheChinese people have started fresh galamsey activity. They are seriously pollutin the water bodies and devastating the rich lands suitable for cocoa production over there. I would be very grateful if the Regional Police Commander send some squad from his outfit to bust them. Their actions have compelled we the youth in the constituency to form and Association Known as "Citizen Protection Advocate" ...A whistle blower association aiming at assisting the security personnel to eradicate galamsey activities within the area. To protect our water bodies and the land for cocoa plantation.

How long do we have to tolerate these people some of whom enter our country unlawfully and show total disrespect to our land and people? This has been going on for too long a time. How many Ghanaians can go to China to do as they are doing and live to tell the story? It is very shocking to me. We have to bear in mind that people's lives and well being depends on these water bodies and land. Why do we welcome people who obviously has no respect for us into our land in the first place. Please let us respect our natural resources and toss out these wasteful characters. If we don't they will destroy our land and develop theirs and probably our future generations will go to their land to be used as slaves just to earn some living.
