If you ever thought that it's only Chinese national who are doing illegal mining in Ghana then you are dead wrong. Apart from the Russians, indians, canadiens and British, many Ghanaians (politicians included) are in brisk business. A little check will indicate to you that it is rather the Ghanaian miner who doesn't prepare the land after mining.
Now let's answer the following questions:
1. How did the Chinese national know about gold in the rural areas if he had not been introduced to it by a Ghanaian?
2. Are the concessions granted by the Minreals Commission given to only Ghanaians.
3. Why do those granted concession sell them out to foreign nationals especially Chinese.
4. Why would the authorities not rethink the provisions on the mining law and to allow partnership between Ghanaians and foreigners in the small mining since even the small scale minig is capital intensive involving heavy duty equipments.
5. Why is the regulators of the industry not ensuring that these mining are done within the best practices?
Let's consider that one concession is being sold by ghanians around 50000USD and one could own about six though not legal would the Ghanaian not sell them without putting a dime into business? Actually this is what is happening. The concessions are being sold. No Chinese or Russian can go into any land without the involvement of a Ghanaian tofiakwa!!!

The true fact is once the activities of the racist disrespectful Chinese are evidently here in Ghana for their diabolical business interest only and do not care what happens to our environments, destroying the rivers, forest and the community's livelihood which is the very foundation of the existing of the local people, either they are legally or illegally operating here is absolutely nonsense.

Where ever in the world would illegal immigrants allowed to work without working permits let alone to be armed with deadly weapons to shoot on the indigenous people with impunity? Only Ghana.

It is just like saying American chemical company which has got the right to operate here in Ghana can drop their toxic waste in our rivers and forest.

The question is what legacy are we leaving behind for our next generation as people and country? The way these Chinese "neo-colonialists" are destroying our environment unchecked, Ghana should be prepared for the shock of a huge natural disaster when the win blows.

If we can not check these unscrupulous Chinese rapist we disheartedly and pathetically see every day destroying our resources, how then are we assured checks on our high seas as we do not have any strong marine checks on our high seas as a nation? Who knows how many of deadly toxic industrial waste is already contracted by our greedy self centered national traitors for pea-nuts to be allowed by international criminals to drop deep into our high seas?

Who is defending mother Ghana? Is Ghana on sale as it looks the country is completely taken over by the crook Chinese and the Nigerian 419s and the country turned to safe havens for all manners of crooks and criminals.

K.Badu, my patience is running out for you, I must be frank with you. If you really care about your environment, please just come down and safe it! In a respond to your first post on this topic, I told you to mobilise the youth and "charge" on these Chinese, kill them, maim them and destroy them if possible. By so doing, you would be able to know who exactly gave them the power to be degrading your environment, since everybody, from the chiefs to the State, denied giving them the go ahead to do so. How effective would your write ups change what the Chinese are doing in your village? I agreed with you that, nowhere on this planet would that happen except in our part of the world. Remember that the Chinese would not just get up and do what they are doing. Remember also the Fulanis in Agogo sometime ago? It is left with you the youth, to stop such lunacy from these Chinese before it´s too late. Posterity would not forgive you guys if you fail to protect your environment. I earnestly look forward to the day when any Chinese would venture into my territory to commit such act.Who can do that in their country?

Our leaders stand on platforms during elections time and fool us that they love Ghana. But we can see from these CHINESE SAGA that they are far from love for Ghana. They are only interested in collecting loans from the so call develop nations and in return allow them to come into our country freely and commit any crime freely. Proterity will judge them for us. We were not seing this until Ghana started taking Loans from China. Then as if they were asked to come for our Gold for repayment, they started rushing in madly. May God help us.

Maybe another solution is to go to China and do the same thing to the locals. We can go there and dig minerals where they grow rice and mess up their farms and if they talk about it we can then fire on them with our weapons and see how they would like that. I think this will be the best solution to this problem. Of course why should they care about somebody's else' country? But if we go to China and mess up the livelihood of the rural population then they'll see what we are trying to say. What do you all think?

We welcomed the Europeans in the 16th century and they colonized us. We welcomed the Syrians/Lebanese and later the Indians and they also resorted to smuggling, bribery, encroachment on the retail segment and lording it over us. Looks like many of us have no self respect or national pride, but enjoy being subjugated.
Anyone who disputes this ought to show me what action they've undertaken to prevent any of these abuses on the nation. And anyone who has began a program to stop such should let me know how I can support that movement.

Not only is it sad that our leaders and they are elected by the people, it is criminal and it is a sin as well. God says thou shall not tempt or be tempted. Our leaders allow themselves to be tempted because of their greed and the people regardless of the way our leaders flaunt their ill gotten wealth continue to support and vote for them to come and abuse the trust vested in them.

Mediocrity has become the norm because the presidents we have had in the last twenty odd years have failed the people through irresponsibility and negligence. Until we vote for someone responsible, and proactive nothing is going to happen to change this mediocrity. As for me I will say that it is the president who is supervising such rot in our country.

The minerals commission is under the minister of mines and energy right? Who supervises that ministry? And who appoints that minster? Who supervises the parliament that makes the laws that govern the way do things here in Ghana? Is the president doing his work? Why is he not supervising his ministers?

I will say again until we vote for a responsible and proactive president, there will be no change and that will only happen get to understand that their elected representatives are working for themselves. Those of us lucky enough to have had our education in the sixties and earlier were really fortunate, a teacher was a teacher, ready to teach and where ever they were post. They had a sense of purpose you see in very few teachers today and you will find them in the private and so called international schools, the reason being they are well motivated and equipped by private individuals and organizations who make supervision a norm, people are responsible for what they are being paid to do.

So until those of us who had that opportunity should as a matter of urgency start educating the around us who through no fault of theirs did not get the opportunities that we had, we must make it a point to make them understand how their leaders are ripping the off, we have to show them how they are doing the ripping off. If we don’t then we also become party to the destruction, because if we did not try to stop the destruction then we were part of the destruction.

I for my part will talk about the PPP and Dr. Papa Kwesi Nduom. A selfmade man who is honest and hardworking, a very proactive person with a work sense of urgency and incorruptible. A man who is God fearing with a sense of responsibility towards his fellow man, a very selfless man with a vision. He belives that he has been blessed and very lucky to have achieved what he has and it becomes a responsibility to share this blessing, yes he is doing that in his own small individual way but feels that given the opportunity to lead and work with like minded Ghanaians, a transformation can take place in Ghana. And I believe him.

The PPP’s Ten Point Agenda.

Create a Just and disciplined society, with a passion for excellence with ten years and with science and technology as the cornerstone, become a higher level middle income country. This will include modernizing agriculture and providing a market to sustain our farmers and fishermen. And how are we going to achieve this?

Improve the Performance of Government by reforming state institutions, make government efficient and raise revenue to be able to pay public servant well to motivate them facilitate the work of the private sector and Ghanaian society in general.

Give power to the People for Development by sponsoring changing the constitution to enable the election of all District Assembly Members and District/Municipal/Metropolitan Chief Executives to ensure local accountability and rapid development. This we will do in one term. This has already be capture in the CRC report, which the ndc is trying to circumvent.

Strengthen Parliament to perform its legislative duties effectively. Sponsor changing the Constitution to abolish the provision that allows Ministers of State to also serve as Members of Parliament. We believe that this move will make available for governance a large pool of qualified, experienced Ghanaian talent whose expertise is currently unused and therefore lost to Ghana. This we will aim to complete in one term of office. Concurrent with this objective will be a solid determination to give Parliament the facilities and resources needed to pass good laws and scrutinise the proposals submitted by the Executive effectively.

Provide Quality Education For Every Ghanaian Child. Standardize schools facilities from kindergarten to Senior High School with libraries, toilets, classrooms, kitchen, housing teachers, playground, etc: and Ensure free and compulsory education in public schools from kindergarten to Senior High School (including computer training). We will deploy an “Education Police” to enforce the compulsory aspect of our policy. An integral part of this objective will be an objective to significantly increase vocational training so that all school leavers gain employable skills. This will include a comprehensive sports program to instill discipline and promote better health.

Provide Energy for Industrialization and Rapid Development. Implement solutions with a sense of urgency to meet domestic needs for industry and domestic use and make Ghana a net exporter of power again in four years. To enable us achieve this objective, we will provide tax incentives to enable development of alternative source of fuel and power – bio fuels and solar. We aim to ensure that the contribution from alternative source of energy reaches a minimum of 10% of what we need in a decade. Harness our natural resources (particularly oil and gas) to ensure maximum benefit and prosperity for all Ghanaians.

Provide Better Healthcare and a Cleaner Environment. Ensure a cleaner environment free from preventable diseases like malaria, cholera and guinea worm. Provide affordable and accessible healthcare for all in every region. Ensure emergency care throughout the country to save lives. Our focus will be in the area of prevention where education is the key.

Attack Crime, The Drug Trade and Corruption. Attack crime, the drug trade and corruption aggressively using leadership by example, being modest in government, passing and implementing the Right to Information Bill and ensuring an independent prosecutors office exists separate from the Ministry of Justice. Strengthen the Narcotics Control Board to make it the agency responsible for fighting the drug trade with all the human, financial and other resources needed for success. Strengthen the Police Force by providing resource and training to fight crime.

Empower the Diaspora. Establish a Secretariat to cater for the needs of Ghanaians Abroad and the African Diaspora by June 30th 2013. Provide a support system to encourage re-entry, investment, safe and healthy vocations and transfer of knowledge and technology. Ensure full citizenship of Ghanaians Abroad so they can vote and serve in public sector positions.

Create Jobs. Use government’s purchasing power to ensure that we eat what we grow and use what we produce in Ghana. Improve Ghana’s business climate to enable investment in job creation so that our people will stay at home to help develop the country and its economy. We will be relentless in providing support to Ghanaian industry and our farmers and fishermen using low interest loans, technical assistance, tax incentives and priority access to the Ghanaian market. To accelerate job creation nationally, an inter-region highway will be built with the same high quality throughout the country to open up the country for investment and development.
