    These hypocrites have all of a sudden found their voices again - where were they when even government officials, including ministers, were being accused by their own government colleagues of being involved in galamsey?

    Mumu guy, no wonder you are suffering from short-memory syndrome. These same people you are insulting today demonstrated against galamsey on the streets of Accra on Oct 18, 2024.

    @GHANA, please, please, please let's be honest in our discourse. Nana Addo didn't bring about galamsey. He inherited galamsey. Indeed he could have done a far better work in the fight against galamsey than he did. But certain ...

    Where were these Bishops during the recent Akufo Addo/Bawumia govt? They only find their voices when NDC is in power & lose it when NPP is in power. "Nyansafuo wo hen" moderator went mute when Akufo Addo was misruling Ghana.

    @OGyam your biggest problem is your refusal to use your brain. You don't need to visit any psychiatric for help, just liberate yourself from NDC and you'll overcome it.How many yrs do you need to repeal that law?

  • OGyam 2 months ago

    @Nii,it is absolutely pointless telling a pig of your type how to think. A sensible person will ask, why did hopeless Akufo Addo introduced it in the first place? Answer, "Party hia sika".
