BAN GALAMSEY with immediate effect. A catastrophic environmental and human disaster is imminent. GALAMSEY is imminent danger to life and health, so it is time to SHUT all these moon craters jotted in the landscape of Ghana. Off course, these Chinese perpetrators and polluters must be made to pay for damage they have caused upon evoking the polluter pay principle before deporting them.

Does anyone seriously believe that a Ghanaian can go to China and mine their land illegally? It is time for stomach led Ghanaians to finally wake up. Our rivers have been poisoned with heavy metals like mercury and lead components beyond believe. It will take four to six decades for the rivers to recover i.e. to have their normal flow and the fishes to be edible. The NPP government must act NOW.

The minister should watch the following documentations for a better insight into an accident waiting to happen. BAN GALAMSEY. PERIOD!

Chinese have bought Ghana government by providing free security equipment to parliamentarians. How do we deal with their citizens They built AU headquarters for $200 million and bought the whole continent.What a shame, 52 countries in Africa could not contribute such money.The Chinese illegal miners get more than $200.00 million a month.Africans are disgrace to humanity.

They should simply not be given licenses to prospect. These Chinese do not care at all about this country and will do whatever to get whatever.

They must be stop completely. How long should they be allowed to destroy our lands and rivers?. Can we do the same in their country?. No way . Our leaders must think of the future.

I don't see d minister designate eradicating illegal mining but rather fueling it. The problem at hand is these Chinese people work with we the Ghanaians whereby the certificate they may be using will bear a Ghana man's name. My question is looking at the way our natural resources are being destroying is it wise to continue tolerating small scale mining? The leaders have been sleeping for long

It is shocking indeed. Where will a Ghanaian find a space in China to mine illegally? I was in China in 2005 and what I saw there was an unfortunate situation for the average foreigner. Who will allow that in China? The presence of the Chinese in Africa in a doom for us. Everywhere in Africa, you find them. Even in the remotest villages. Yet, there is nothing our governments can do. Institute laws that will force them to quit. Imprison the law breakers. But, finally do not allow them to mine at all. PERIOD!!!!!!!

Chinese do not care about african governments . They will contnue galamsey as far as our chiefs help and protect them . On this front Nana Addo will fail. Kyebihene is for illegal mining and Nana Addo will not like to annoy him. I read more chinese are planning to come to Ghana. The poor Minister cannot and will not stop them. The only solution is deportation-----but then we need chinese money. People, Galamsey will continue.
