That would have been the perfect remedy but at a huge cost to the state.

Unless there's a review of the justice system.

1. Introduce non custodial sentencing for certain crimes Ghanaians commit(to make way in the institutions)
2. Allow inmates (especially the foreigners in galamsey) to work for their meals, engage in restoration of the environment they degraded and cost of their
repatriation.

When these conditions are met, it'll be sensible to incarcerate all foreigners in galamsey.

Long overdue. If Ghanaians themselves destroy our resources, the effect is self-created But if we allow foreigners to destroy our forests and water bodies, they would leave and enjoy their wealth whilst we suffer. Jail them!

Is it not a cover-up for our politicians who fear that jailing them may force them to disclose the identity of their financiers? Oh Ghana!!

In addition to jail, they must pay for the full cost of reclamation - land and rivers without toxic chemicals.
Excavator importers, must pay penalizing import duties to also recover the reclamation costs.

Asantehene is involved in Galamsey in Western region and they want to use this incident to cover up that expose.

BODUKWAN HOLDINGS (NANA KWADU DUAH BONSU), that’s the legal name of Asantehene.
Initials of that name reversed to BODUKWAN (BONSU, DUAH, KWAKU, NANA), together with his wife Julia Amaning and one lawyer are named beneficiaries of Bodukwan holdings.

Google this expose by the FOURTH ESTATE and see how Kwasia Tutu is setting river Pra in Western Region.

They’re attempting to kill the story by this Kofi Adomah’s incident.

Dormaahene sent his Ankobeahene (now late ) , who also doubled as Amasuhene to visit Kofi Adomah . His own wife also spoke to Kofi adomah and his wife , howbeit , they insulted the wife of Dormaahene.

Kofi Adomah’s wife was disrespectful toward anyone assigned to liaise with them . Adɛn , is his eye the eye of Osiris?

You first trial, jail them if found guilty and then deport them. That's what the western democracies do. They just don't catch and deport criminals. They are jailed first and deported after they have served their jail term!

agreed, what the minister said lacked lucid consideration. it was said on the spur of the moment, no thought went into it. sometimes, these guys can use the free AI tools to help them come up with some pragmatic measures before they come on radio, television and expose their deficient thinking.
how do you deport these guys and expect that they don't come back better prepared next time.That even affords them the opportunity to go and raise more funds.
Did ms huang not return even in the face of arrest,prosecution and jail?
we must be joking if this minister means what he's saying, its the last thing.
other countries are using their prisoners to very good use...farming,cleaning etc. we keep them housed and fed.
lets do better!

... and do what to the Ghanaians who give them the authority to do galamsey?

It is our own people who encourage that so it makes no sense to exonerate them and punish another. They both must be severely punished.
