IN THE FIRST PLACE THE NDC BROUGHT THE CHINESE. Through their numerous loan acquirements, they sold Ghana. Gold fuelled their re-election. I mean gold impounded at Turkey enroute Iran.

Very soon, Ghanaians will be landless. When will the land grab for mining stop? Where are the MPs in the area?

The NDC won the Ellembelle seat fraudulently by busing in non-residents and the like. It is not surprising then that the NDC MP for the area is conniving and colluding with this Australian company as well as illegal Chinese immigrants to destroy the area through the environmentally dangerous form of mining now being undertaken all over the Western Region.

The people of Ellembelle should resist with all their might Mahama's corrupt and dangerous plans for their community.

Very soon Adamus will pack and leave our precious land.
We are ready to die for our heritage.
Somebody tell govt. to prepare for war because we will obliterate Adamus into ashes.

"Necessity is the mother of invention."

While the Great Horse Manure Crisis of 1894 created one impetus to find another form of transportation, over a century later we find ourselves in a similar situation with the car.
Fracking, Runoff from oil and exhaust contribute to 13 percent of all river contamination and some scientists predict that with current oil production levels, the finite resource that fuels
our cars could be depleted by 2055.
These are chemical companies that make the lithium carbonate. (the producers of lithium)
Its lithium-brine reserves. lithium carbonate equivalen (LCE) production. The real drivers of growth are lithium-ion batteries.
FOLKS,JUST GOOGLE THIS: The Great Horse Manure Crisis of 1894. THEN U WILL KNOW WHY THE CHINESE ARE IN GH DOING GALAMSAY. BYE BYE TO OIL BY 2055.
electric vehicles are an option, but lithium-ion batteries also serve other technologies, such as hybrid-electric vehicles and plug-in hybrid-electric vehicles.
Pure electric vehicle batteries can be plugged into a home's electricity for charging; batteries for hybrid-electric vehicles can also be used while the engine is running.
So it is not just an external source of electricity. We have also to consider that automakers are researching other technologies as well, and they have made important progress
on the efficiency of internal combustion engines, for example. I believe that in the future we will see a mix of different technologies coexisting.
Yes, you have to generate the electricity, but if you consider the impact of CO2 emissions, you will conclude that electric vehicles are the best option compared with other current-available technologies.

CPP, these are the sort of positive publicity you need to undertake to break the polarisation (NDC-NPP) of politics in Ghana.
The leaders and the rank and file of the party need to find these nation-wrecking issues across the region under the banner of the CPP to drum home to them that there is an alternative neutral party to impose their confidence in to move Ghana forward.

It is now obvious that Prez. Mahamah does not love Ghana but the business of his brother the miner who contributes to his re-election efforts. We thank the CPP for standing up firm on this one.

Samia, where are you in all of these? This is the time to show what kind of leadership you will bring to board if we supported you. Why have you kept your quite? Stand up and we will make you Ghana's first female president. We do not need NDC or NPP. They are all corrupt and we need a strong leader to probe them. Stand up, gel to be counted, Samia Nkrumah. Start canvassing right from now through the grass roots. We have points to drum home: the degrading of the water bodies, lands, illegal mining activites, sale of the Ghanaian iconic assets to cronies and front ment. The take over of Ghana by Chines, Nigerians and Lebanese. Ghana for Ghanaians. Signing of oil deals in secrets. The time has come to sack these two parties from our political discourse. They are criminals and neo-colonialists. Stand up, and we will cheer you on to lead our country. Be courageous.

Samia cant show zilch! What more does one need to see that she is incompetent? The CPP itself has become an ordinary Party like the NDC, NPP, PPP, PNC and the rest. In fact most of its current leaders are openly or quietly working for the NDC today.

The only solution to this problem is guerrilla warfare. A hit and run strategy on all legitimate targets involved in this most sacrilegious collusion between the state and the vampires of capital.

I think NII is in a wonderland or he is in his own state outside Ghana. Where was he when the body of our first president was snatched from the people of Nkoroful in a rambo style.
The very object which could have attract people to the place is no more there so what is he talking about. Who said Nkoroful is a heritage site? what does see in the place to call it as such. come to the place and see things yourself if you really know what you are talking about. You always want to stay in Accra and behave you know everything. You don't even know the people yet because of cheap political popularity you are behaving as if you are theie saviour . Please keep quite because Kwame Nkrumah's relivance in modern politics is death and gone. bye

If the purchase of the land was not done by or on behalf of the Ghana government then any sale that has taken place and or is in the pipeline would take place between land owners and the company. And as we all know, most lands supposedly belong to the chiefs. So the question to the CPP ought to go to the chiefs and the town folks. Who is being stupid here? Is it the ignorant people or is it a company who have done its homework and known the people to be gullible or glib and thus want to take advantage? If CPP looks carefully they will find a Ghanaian citizen, even an MP fronting for this Australian company. Most in Ghana have never understood the difference between leasing and selling outright. As such Ghanaians have given up their rights to leave something worth a dime to the next generation by selling off land and property that has been in families over the years.
At Osu, Labone and Labadi in Accra, many of the prime real estate lands were sold to Lebanese for chicken feed. I dare anyone in Ghana, from President Mahama on down to go to Lebanon and find a piece of farm land that is owned by a Ghanaian and I will eat crow. We have sat around in Ghana and seen people from every Godforsaken place on earth come to Ghana to own land at the expense of the working living poor in Ghana. Are we not the cursed fools when our own parliament cannot and will not understand that there is nothing more precious than land? We must not allow poverty to sway us into giving it up for sheer silliness. For those who may make the case for free market principles I say let your free market ideology reign within rules and not in a vacuum. In the civilized western worlds where they entertain free market principles such the USA, UK, Canada and others their respective legislators have blocked the sale of business interests the respective countries deemed such a sale would be detrimental to either national security or some other national interest. So you see, it is not everything that is subject to the free market slogan; there are limits after all.

they have no respect for our human rights and values, yet they are quick to prech abuse of human rights when it suits them. Kwame Nkrumah's birth place is untouchable and not negotiable. Mahama must be sacked by all means necessary. The man is showing his true colors for greed. He is a political prostitute. We witnessed that when NDC was returned into opposition. He flirted with NPP, ate and dinned with them while the founder and his followers wallowed in distress. We do not trust Mahama and Ghanaians must be up in arms in support of Nkrumah's birth place. Ghana does not need Adamus or anything in place of Nkrumah's birth place.

They make Nkrumah sick in his grave. He must have regretted opening up Ghana. What an ungrateful generation and socalled leaders? How did this come about, our beloved Ghana? Nkrumah foresaw the shadow of the dark days in Ghana. We never imagined eer having such a fickle leader. The dysfunction in our society will be an impetus for the SC to swing any how. It is clear Ghanaians are not happy with the current leadership style.

This madness must stop at once!!

The chiefs and people of Nzema must stand firm and stop Adamus from desecrating our land.

Gov't should revoke its licence forthwith.

If Adamus does not understand the historical significance of Nkroful, it does not deserve to be mining in our country.

What is the MP doing? What about the district assembly and DCE?

Stop this company from destroying our heritage!
