Akufo Addo closed his ears to the cries to declare a state of emergency in all our forest reserves. Remember organised labour threatened a nation wide strike only for them to backtrack after something changed hands.

Mr. Mahama, many of us, including I, put so much trust in you to place the wellbeing of Ghanaians and the advancement and prosperity of Ghana above all parochial interests.
We do not expect the same shameful, hopeless, deceitful, inept and wicked attitude and conduct that Akufo Addo, Bawumia and the NPP exhibited over 8 years.
The galamsey fight is a very tough one. So, it requires true commitment. We are not interested in stories and ever changing promises. So far I only see half-hearted commitment. You PROMISED to REPEAL LI2642 but now your minister is insisting on amending it. Don't take us for fools.
We only expect true results. Your party, NDC, executives and members undermining the fight against galamsey. Officials of the state, including judges, police officers, etc are also undermining the fight. All such evil elements must be dealt with firmly once and for all.
And why can't we deploy surveillance drones with night vision capabilities, etc on 24/7 surveillance. We CANNOT afford to fail this fight.

Doc, I agree with you that Mahama declares state of emergency on galamsey as the then opposition NDC demanded from Akuffo Addo's government. Much as I support Mahama's government I am inclined to believe that some bigwigs are complicit in galamsey that is why Mahama is dilly- dallying. I am not an NDC member or sympather but I voted for Mahama so the government should walk its talk even though there's no silver bullet solutions to stopping the menace completely. The NDC also promised to repeal LI 2462 but not to amend it but the Mahama-led government should not try to hoodwink us. Mahama be careful!!

I agree with you Charles. Mahama is not displaying any seriousness in the galamsey fight. We got to be careful with the way he's handling things.

Why is it that Ghana leaders,presidents,or heads of state don't think the way Kwame Nkrumah used to think.Why are these heads of state don't have visions and development plans.?Very sad.Nkrumah created the forest reserves and later to be destroyed by criminals under subsequent governments. Haba!! The man from the far East of Ghana must be resisted at all cost from owning Ghana.

It seems the government is afraid of the galamasy people. Why don’t they declare war on galamsey and release the army. Yes Ghana is at that stage .
