A foreign company is dictating to citizens and citizens are even begging for them to do the right thing. You are even giving them deadlines instead of arresting them. Animals are better than some African leaders. President Mahama should sack the minister if this issue is not stop immediately. Can the same Chinese do that in his country?

This is a notorious Chinese company known for disrespecting law. No environmental management, human rights for workers and suppliers are lacking. They cheat suppliers openly by adjusting the weigh bridge scale. Ghana Standard Authority is no match for them. Their invoices and receipts are in Chinese language so you can’t do any meaningful reconciliations with them unless you are proficient in Chinese language. Simply put, this is a bad company in Ghana in every aspect.

Do Ghana have leaders at all? It is sometimes amazing how they behave towards the foreigners. Are they really there for us or we are just being used for foreign interests. Common law enforcement, they can’t do because they are tainted and deep in corruption. We are not safe in the hands of our own people, so you can imagine what others will do to you. Ghana is doomed. We are only surviving by chance, I believe.

I guess our leaders are looking at the number of Ghanaians employed by the firm as against the health hazard they are coursing through their activities to the water body hence, the kid gloves approach

So we now beg offenders to cease their actions. Is it that we don't have any laws that punish for deliberate pollution, or the company has financially compromised officers of those agencies that are mandated to execute the law? Don't those agencies even have superiors reading this report right now?

Very soon the Minister of Health and the one for Environment will personally go there to also plead with the company to stop the pollution of our water body. And if the locals march there to lock up the company, a battalion of police from Accra Head office in hightech riot control gear will tear gas, pepper spray and arrest them. Disgraceful country.

Ultimatum again?
You don't warn a criminal before taking an action.
Mr President, please quickly sack that man immediately.
