The IEA doesn't seem to know how Goldfields Ghana came to Tarkwa. The AMALGAMATED BANKET AREAS (ABA) mine which was part of the State Gold Mining Corporation (SGMC) conglomerates collapsed and the underground mine then was FLOODING to the extent that the underground water was flooding parts of nearby Aboso. Then Goldfields came to rescue the mine. We in Tarkwa are delighted to have GOLDFIELDS. THE GOVERNMENT MUST RENEW THE LEASE WHEN IT EXPIRES IN 2027. TARKWA DESERVES BETTER!!!!.

You will remain a pauper all your life. Shameless creature. What exactly are the Goldfields people doing for our country, when they keep making billions out from us?

Ghana should benchmark UAE, India and China. They believe in themselves. They would hire qualified people from anywhere in the world, pay them well and keep all the profits.
When Tarkwa reverts back to a Ghanaian or Ghana, we can hire the best engineers, scientists and managers and pay them well. Kutu acheampong never borrowed a pesewa from outside because Ghana Government had close to 50% share in the mines. It is time for us to believe that "We CAN" deliver.

Some Ghanaians are just so stupid, they can't see further than their nose the moment somebody gives them a bribe. How some Ghanaians will back the white South African who doesn't even visit Ghana to see the mine is beyond belief.

IEA as a think tank must put substantive arguments for and against?
The founder of NDC brought in investors.Three models are needed
Wholly Ghanaian owned
Joints Ventures with foreign firms majority and minority owned
Wholly foreign owned
we still need investors in the sector
An example the huge Bauxite deposits with a modern railway to feed Valco.
Aluminium prices at an all time high.
Encourage foreign firms to engage in huge solar projects to improve energy security.
It must be a win win
More mines factories needed.
The Banking sector is working in the same way foreign Banks local banks and rural banks.
The Ghanaians entrepreneurs go to ABSA and Stanbic ft or loans why not GCB CBG.

The founder of your useless NDC founder brought in Goldfields, so they should be given a 20year extension. Does Ghana belong to your NDC founder, fool? How many billions of dollars have Goldfields earned for 35yrs, and how much of that billions of dollars did they use to improve the lives of the people at Tarkwa.

The Chamber of Mines people have been bribed to take the position they have taken. The lawyers the South African has paid $3 million to are using it to bribe people at the Chamber of Mines. What development has that owner brought to the mining area when he gets 25% of gold from that Tarkwa Mines. DO NOT extend the lease and give it to a Ghanaian who is more capable of doing the job. For Christ sake, the South African guy doesn't even travel to Ghana to see what the workers are doing

So you mean if the mine is given to a Ghanaian and after paying his numerous taxes and royalities plus it's cooperate responsibilities you expect him/her to still develop the mining area. Then what happened to taxes and royalities the mining companies pay to the government.This is the question many fail to answer.Many forget that these companies goes for huge loans that needs to be settled and also have to pay dividends to shareholders

Rubbish argument, it doesn't stop you from taking back what belongs to you, the option to not renew the lease is the best option, I bet if the government was to cancel the lease now, they, Tarkwa Goldfields Limited would take Ghana government to court in London for payment of over 2 billion US Dollars, with no mercy. Think about the bigger picture and stop talking nonsense to yourself, think big, belief in yourself that the era of change is now, our bunch of useless, corrupt and country wreckers leaders over the past 50 years are dead, gone, the new ones are facing opposition, they cannot intentionally rundown state companies again, which is the main point of your concern. No matter what, we need to learn how to work and feed ourselves, it is the right thing to do, the sensible thing to do, no more easy money, loans and taxes from investors, given away everything important, our minerals for basically free, around 15 percent, that is silly. Stop fooling around, confusing the citizens of Ghana, we will not negotiate, renew or extend any contract with any investor again in Ghana, it is the right thing to do, period.

All mining noise makers did you give suggestions when the Gold price was low.
Companies pumping millions into the country and people were quite.
We need economy to grow but don't make Goldfields scape goat.A lot of people even don't know what is happening around.
No running taps at Tarkwa due to illegal miners encroaching water works.
Roads affected by trucks transporting Bauxite and Manganese.Rsilways no more working
GIHOC factories collapsed .
I stayed at Bonsa Tyre factory in my youth and attended school in Tarkwa
Tyre and glass factory generated jobs around area
Government must account for all mining revenues.
How can Ghanaian entrepreneurs compete with high interest rates?
Make noise but we go to foreign Banks like ABSA Stanbic the same South African entities?
Whole economy needs action
Agriculture
Agricbuiness
Manufacturing
Mining
Petroleum etc
Let's work hard and stop blame blame
