Ghana is developing into a country of organized groups where members are found in every part of the society. Nothing like people with a common goal and direction.

Did the police chase any demonstrators witj tear gas as happened under your NDC. Which president will allow hooligans to block access to a referral hospital like Koelw Bu? The government will not sit down for opposition-organized demonstrations to derail its mandate.

YOU ARE A RESPECTED MAN BUT BECAUSE OF POLITICS YOU HAVE BEEN TALKING A LOT OF NONSENSE IN RECENT TIMES. HOW MANY TIMES DO YOU WANT TO BE TOLD THAT THE DEMONSTRATORS BROKE LAWS FOR WHICH THEY ARE BEING PROSECUTED. A LAWYER LIKE YOU IS JUST TALKING SHIT AS IF YOU CANNOT READ. ARE YOU THE JUDGE HANDLING THE CASE? DO YOU THINK THE JUDGE WILL HEAR THE CASE IF IT HAS NO BASIS. GREEDY STOMACH.

We can't be good leaders if we encourage lawlessness for political expediency or silence people we don't agree with. Bagbin examine your self and you will note that there's no single way to solve a problem. A good leader explores every available solution, some even contradictory to each other before making a choice. Even then he should be amenable to change.

Masa,be circumspect. The protesters had their freedom until they began to misbehave. Learn for Dominic Ayeni. He condemned the protesters for misconduct

Nobody stopped anybody from protesting. It’s surprising that Bagbin doesn’t seem to be on top of the issues and stop casting insinuations. No government has fought against illegal small scale mining more than the current one. Licensing for mining has to be analyzed with honesty and integrity. Galamsey politics must be condemned. Isn’t it interesting that with two months to an election this canker has all of a sudden become the most important topic as if somebody just woke from their sleep to see that people are mining illegally and in water bodies too. The country has to shut down because of this insatiable hunger for undeserved political power by a group of Ghanaians.

This Albert Bagbin man has kerosine filled to the brim in his brains. Answer these questions please: How many were the demonstrators, and among them,how many of them did the Police arrest? Was the Police that stupid on the day to arrest any demonstrator at all? People like Bagbin should do himself good by always engaging him brains before opening his mouth to speak on matters of public/national concern. Should some people be allowed to hit the streets to destroy property and threaten lives under the notion that they are demonstrating against ills in the society? Bagbin should know that Ghana is not a failed State. Every action should be undertaken according to the rules outlined. Appropriate sanctions should be meted out to people who knowingly flout rules and regulations. This is what pertains in any serious nation. Bagbin wise up,please.

Listen to this "Headteacher" of the Parliament! Did you watch tv on the day of the demonstration? Do you endorse the hooliganism and barbaric conduct of those who have now been caged? If the voices against galamsey were being crashed, how come that out of the thousands of demonstrators only a hand full (some 53) were arrested. ? Be objective, please.

Bagbin, what is your message to John Mahama? Mahama is telling Ghanaians that galamsey cannot be stopped so, if you are pushing for a ban and Mahama goes behind the scenes, and promise that illegal mining should go on, what is your point?

Bagbin, tell Mahama to stop his foolishness because galamsey gained international recognition under his watch. Who was Aisha Huang, the Chinese lady who came to Ghana and took the country at ransom and dared the Mahama government to arrest her? How many acres of cocoa farms were destroyed by Aisha Huang and what did Mahama, and his government do to her?

The voices calling for a stoppage of galamsey, should be in unison including that of John Mahama who is lurking in the shadows and sending mix signals supporting galamsey.

Should we be leaders who sit unconcerned whilst innocent citizens who are sick and need medical attention are denied that right? Surely no. Demonstrators must know that they don't have unlimited rights.

Shut the up Bagbin. You didn’t start with any good intentions but the corruption & graft mindset. As corrupt and ungrateful to Ghanaians, you spent over $1 million of the taxpayers money on your trips to Dubai for medical treatment for more than 6 times taking along your wife, maid and staff along flying in first class. You have no good intentions for Ghana. All of you from that cacophonous revolution only came in to suck the blood of Ghanaians and enrich yourselves. Assholes.
