Things fall apart.
We are busy doing galamsey! Don't worry us with your cocoa matters. We are surely breaking the 8 with our galamsey business.
When was Galamsay started on a large scale? I hope you know it was not started and promoted by Akuffo Addo. Find out who encouraged it.
Shut the up . He promised to put his presidency on the line .

Bawumiah is more respected both in Ghana and abroad than you. And the most civilized people who are the majority are those going to vote for him come next Elections to become the next President of Ghana.
Why shouldn't we blame Bawumiah and his government?

The legacy of the chimpanzee family
But honestly speaking. Who will vote for a rat like Bawumia?
Bard leadership npp followings always voting defending animals leadership akufo addo bawumia government has given this country most of their followers have thinking problem
Is there even money to buy cocoa beans from the farmers? This article doesn't mention Illegal mining for gold. Polluted water bodies and cocoa farms.
Unfortunately, Bloomberg did not mention GALAMSEY?
What an omission! The article disregarded the elephant in the room.
The worst is yet to come. You will grow the cocoa but you can't sell it because it is contaminated. The mining activity comes with dangerous chemicals which are socked into the soil.resulting into crop contamination.
The NPP ...

Ghana broke even stroke by galamsey. No Chinese cocoa fields? Let the foreigners steal our land and buy the NPP. Why not elect Chinese galamsey President?
Our cocoa farms have been converted to galamsey sites by this inept government, the sad story of a leading producer of Cocoa
The 'PARTY HIA SIKA' people cut the cocoa trees and used the land for galamsey.
The elephant is indeed, a destroyer.
