These days those nearer their graves are even greedier than the you. Poisoning the whole of ghana and causing food insecurity is better then. Is mining the only job? All these greedy old men have their interest

Don't forget that the current president of the national house of chiefs was sponsored by Akuffo Addo and the NPP to be elected.

Livid? You moron!! Mining is the second income generating source in Ghana and you want it ban? After the disaster of the Black Stars scandal in the SA world cup was football banned? You have made huge monies in the GFA by milking the country with others and you have the audacity to talk with your political lense. Illegal mining is banned simply by its illegality, so why ban mining? Are you sane? Tell your NDC folks to stop undermining government efforts to fight this kanker or else shut up. Your Mahama has promised to release those jailed, talk about that too!!

Despite the colour of the water, we are able to drink water. We are not dehydrated. The colour has been there for more than 10 years. The new noise is political because election is near. Nobody drinks from those large rivers. Let's continue to fight against it. It is a long-term plan. The NPP succeed in their first term but there is rebound. Let's continue. It will end naturally.

Mercury, lead and arsenic are invisible killers. They will remain in our waterbodies for years. Have you not seen the deformed babies, children as young as eight with liver and kidney disease? Soon the whole of Ghana will be affected. This is a public health emergency. God will punish those of us who look the other way and choose to persist with this evil.

You Randy Abbey, you sit in Accra and you think the whole Ghana is Accra eh. Try banning galamsey immediately and the armed robbery cases that will erupt eh, you have no idea of. Look, those guys are mercenaries in disguise. We shouldn't have allowed them in at the first place but you, you were in Ghana when they came and entered the forests. And now what are you talking? I agree with the chief. Now that our eyes are opened flushing them out should be gradual. Don't forget they are armed to the teeth

What were those people doing before this demonic greedy behaviour of destroying water bodies by galamsey got hold in Ghana. Galamsey have always been in Ghana from time immemorial without water bodies and forest lands being destroyed enmasse. It is greed, stupidity, and get rich quick attitude that are making people destroying water bodied. The law enforcement bodies must be firm and ruthless to clamp down on this environmental terrorism happening in Ghana

This obese clown has an inflated idea of his political relevance. Livid? Did he update himself with the follow-up clarification given by the President of the National House of Chiefs? Or he has to represent the position of his party the NDC, anyway? By the way what does one expect from a person with gray hair who calls himself Randy? Parents should be careful with the names they give their children, for they carry these names into their old age. Randy means; "lustful, sexually aroused, lecherous...". The meaning of the name of Randy Abbey. This clown shouts behind a microphone in a studio and expects his views to have value?

If people will hide behind so called license the galsmsey fight will fail. When the sea is closed by Hawa Koomson do they allow licensed trawlers and canoes to go fishing. The ban is for all until further notice. Isn't it?

Truth is one and Dr. Randy Abbey is speaking the Truth. We have laws to deal with galamsey and the truth is the laws are being rejected. We must tread carefully else the gold we seek will destroy Ghana. Money is not bad, however, the love of money is. Do we have stats on how many people have died because of galamsey? Galamsey could cause war in Ghana.

We have a galamsey problem and not all mining. Ghana's economy depends on mining. Let us focus on making it clean, and not knee jerk reactions because some politicians including those you Randy support have decided to totally pollute our rivers to score political points in the lead up to elections. We should just go after those operating in the rivers; they are all foreigners brought in to create nuisance. You see them just stirring the water like banku. They are not looking for gold.

This Randy Abbey is just another useless doctorate degree holder.Why are the highly educated people in Ghaba just so foolish?
There must be ban on galamsey and not mining in general. Do you know it's economic implications on Ghana?There is difference between legal and proper mining and galamsey.
Mining in water bodies or cl9se to must be stopped. Traditional leaders,political leaders,journalists,community members and the entire citizens of Ghana can join hands to stop the menace. Politicising the issues will yield no positive results.
