mr Amin, you are right because despite the dollar coming down, electricity and water tariffs including food prices are still very high and that does not constitute any achievement. Is the Israel Iran war over? Let's pray it i ...

GOLD AND DIAMONDS SMUGGLING OUT OF GHANA DID NOT START TODAY. IT'S A DECADES-OLD PRACTICE. GHANA'S ECONOMY HAS BEEN BLEEDING PROFUSELY SINCE 1957. 5 months ago

NOISE WILL NOT PUNISH GOLD SMUGGLERS. ARRESTS, JAIL TIME AND ASSETS CONFISCATION WILL. GHANA'S CROOKED LEADERS ONLY MAKE NOISE ABOUT TRILLIONS OF DOLLARS OF GOLD SMUGGLED OUT OF GHANA TO DUBAI AND THE WEST.

ATO FORSON KNOWS EXACTLY WHO THE "BIG TIME" GOLD SMUGGLERS ARE, BUT FOR OBVIOUS REASONS, HE PRETENDS HE DOESN'T KNOW WHO THEY ARE.

THE "BIG TIME" GOLD SMUGGLERS ARE TOP GHANAIAN BUSINESSMEN AND WOMEN, SUCCESSIVE LOCAL CHIEFS, GHANAIAN POLITICANS AND PASTORS FRAUDULENTLY USING GHANA'S DIPLOMATIC PASSPORTS AND THE VVIP/VIP LOUNGES AT KOTOKA INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT. SOME EVEN USE PRIVATE JETS TO SMUGGLE OUT GHANA'S GOLD.

THE REST ARE INDIANS AND OTHER SOUTH ASIAN BUSINESSMEN/WOMEN OPERATING IN GHANA, CHINESE, NIGERIANS, SYRIANS AND LEBANESE, PERIOD. THESE ARE THE BIG TIME GOLD SMUGGLERS.

IF ATO FORSON IS PRETENDING HE DOES NOT KNOW THEM, I'VE NAMED THEM FOR HIM TO PURSUE THOSE CRIMINALS, INCLUDING THE LIKES OF WONTUMI AND MANY OTHERS.

GHANA'S ECONOMY HAS BEEN BLEEDING PROFUSELY SINCE 1957. WHY IS AKWATIA, KNOWN FOR MASSIVE DIAMOND RESERVES, STILL A DEPRIVED GHOST TOWN AND A VILLAGE? THE SAME APPLIES TO PRESTEA FOR GOLD. GHANA'S SUCCESSIVE LEADERS HAVE BEEN LOOTING THE ROYALTIES MEANT FOR BRINGING MODERN INFRASTRUCTURE DEVELOPMENT TO THE MANY MINING AREAS IN BANKRUPT GHANA, THEN THEIR NEXT STOP IS THE IMF BEGGING FOR MORE LOANS TO LOOT AND DUMP THE REPAYMENTS ON POOR ORDINARY GHANAIANS TO FORK OUT IN HIGH STATUTORY TAXES, LEVIES AND KILLER PRICE LEVELS OF FUEL AND OTHER CONSUMER PRODUCTS.

Mr Sector Minister, do whatever you can, like you have pledged to help Ghana. Ghana, with good leadership, will thrive and become an economic haven for others. It would attract efficient and competitive investors and promote sustainable tourism. We can start over and make things better. Go ahead and carry out the directive, sir.

And most of these smuggling and stealing of gold went to Dubai by Swiss report..a very reliable report yet Ghanaians and Africans in Dubai are treated like shit in Dubai..I have been to Dubai 3 times this year alone and I felt very angryand sad how Africans especially Ghanaians are treated like shit..they have been stealing our gold from Ghana yet when Ghanaians travel to Dubai, they don’t even respect them..in Dubai Indians and Philippines are the bosses of the workforce..some jobs boldly say they don’t hire blacks or Africans..I felt bad I have to spend my money in that wicked people’s economy..that’s one thing I give to America..even if these Americans steal from u, atleast Qhen u travel there with the right documents, u can equally get better jobs to do..Ghanaians let’s wake up and stop this criminality..

The borders are under government and agency control so how is the gold being smuggled out...probably with your cooperation.Look within yourselves and you will find the answer
