This man is gradually behaving like the incompetent stubborn akuffo addo. The mahama before is the mahama now, the value is the same.

Dramani Mahama is waiting until he gets the ok from Ibrahim Mahama. By that time, the government would have granted enough concessions to the family empire.

Mahama,
Why did you call on Akufo-Addo to declare a state of emergency on galamsey when you knew that the National Security Council had to advise the President to that effect?

@ FACT....Because useless Akufo Addo was issuing galamsey permits like a confetti. Over 2000 galamsey permits and a legislation for his crooked men to mine in the forest.

@dwen kakra,
YOU ARE STUPID! IF NOT, YOU WOULD NOT GIVE THIS STUPID RESPONSE!!
LET'S ACCEPT THAT AKUFFO ADDO ISSUED ALL THE PERMITS IN GHANA, AND MAHAMA DID NOT ISSUE ANY AT ALL!!!
IS THAT NOT THE REASON IT SHOULD BE VERY EASY FOR MAHAMA TO DECLARE A STATE OF EMERGENCY SO THAT THE CROOKED AKUFFO ADDO'S MEN WILL NO LONGER BE ABLE TO CONTINUE THEIR GALAMSEY???
SO WHY THEN IS HE NOT DECLARING THE STATE OF EMERGENCY???
THE ANSWER IS SIMPLE! MAHAMA AND HIS FAMILY AND FRIENDS ARE BENEFITING FROM THE GALAMSEY!!!

These are all dumb delay tactics Mahama and his NDC cohorts are employing to make the best out of the galamsey menace. The destruction of our water bodies and forests is so clear and practical, how on earth does the national security outfit has to advise before you take action? Politicians have a way of throwing dust into the people's eyes to benefit themselves, and that is what Mahama is doing. Unfortunately, he is only displaying his incompetence in solving critical issues in the country, and that is serious and shameful.

But it is still going on at those security zones. Mr. President please personally go to the security zones and verify, fiili fiili. That is how Kwame Nkrumah got things done.

So sad to hear this from had been a president before. Didn't he know that Nana Addo also needs advice from National security council before he could also declare a state of emergency? The reality has dawned on him now.

He is just passing the buck.He does not want to take the initiative because of earlier promises he made to the galamsayers before he came to power.

That useless entity called council of state needs to be scrapped. Very very useless political bootlickers, what do we pay them for? Always support every nonsense of the incumbent government.

It's only a generation ago that drought induced famine killed off countless Ethiopians. Since then, responsible governance has sprung to action and planted more trees than any other nation in the world, planting over 40 billion trees. This year alone, they on target to plant 7.5 billion trees to turn desert lands into forests. Rwanda, as tiny as ut is, is busily expanding its forests by planting trees. They want to increase the habitat of the gorillas!
So what is happening to Ghana? No leadership? Did the national security council campaign for election? Did we vote for the national security council?
We have to remove Maamah for his dereliction of duty. Maamah must go!
