    Of course they will refuse. Most of us have no other choice than eat local products and hope beyond hope that we are not getting poisoned.

    This is a clear sign that our problems have started as a nation and instead of tackling it together we are foolishly playing NDC and NPP. Both of them are making money whilst killing us slowly.

    So long as galamsey is a problem, both NDC and NPP are useless!!

  • Sasabronsam 1 week ago

    I told someone who was defending a political party about this issue that those poisons don't discriminate so he should not be supporting NDC or NPP about this issue.

    I am of the view that hoteliers can come together establish a farm to cultivate vegetables, fish and other items they use in preparing food for their guests from abroad.
    This information from the hoteliers has exposed how da ...

  • Prudhomme - Ghanaians are unintelligent 1 week ago

    The bottom line is that tourists would eventually stay away from Ghana.

    They read all the news about the massive environmental destruction in Ghana and the poisoning of our rivers and soil with heavy metals.

  • Baffour 1 week ago

    Yeah. The next in the chain of galamsey effects following this line of industry is tourists avoiding Ghana. Only God knows the complexity of the actual end effect of the unsustainable practice of galamsey.

  • Baffour 1 week ago

    I will be surprised if we talk about these effects now as if we didn't know as a whole country that they would arise as a result of galamsey.

  • Young man 1 week ago

    Yes ,that should be so, and it will get worse in the near future, this is the result of NPP AND NDC leaders who are both behind the sponsoring of this illegal galamsay business .Evil, selfish,
    and greedy leaders that do let ...

    I thought majority of our fishes are from the sea.Apart from the tiny tilapias and herrings I don't think our rivers produce the other kinds of fishes.

  • Reformer 1 week ago

    The beginning of the end. If galamsey is not banned completely, Ghana will suffer like never before. Kidney diseases are on the rise everywhere. The government must wake up. Period. Silence means foolishness here.

    We haven’t seen anything yet. We will all die like fools.

  • Obiba Ghana 1 week ago

    Like the fools that we are!

  • Kwesi 1 week ago

    Not only due to Galamsey but also the way the fish is processed in Jamestown and across the country as exposed in the news few days ago. The Ghanaian authorities should address this issue with all urgency.

  • Obiba Ghana 1 week ago

    Ghana is on a self-destructive mission. And no one appears to be in control.
