I'm shocked that none of our politicians and traditional leaders--including Akuffo Addo, Mahama, and Asantehene--were implicated in these robberies. Our leaders have not only been robbing us, but they're also stealing the future of our children as well.

We need Rawlings 2.0 to send these traditional and political leaders to the Teshie shooting range. May our prayers be answered. Amen!

@ Natural and Kai Nyame,

If I have to take a guess, you are incensed because I mentioned Asantehene. For the record, I don't see Northeners insulting me, though I mentioned Mahama. I don't see people from the Eastern Region insulting me, though I mentioned Akuffo Addo.

Of those I mentioned, Asantehene is the only one who has been banned from a foreign country--specifically Canada--for fraud. I'm an Ashanti but don't worship crooks, unlike you. And don't come back telling me you aren't an Ashanti. No tribe worships crooks as much as Ashantis. And no tribe is more incensed than Ashantis when its crooked chief/thief is mentioned in an unsavory context.

Asantehene is the only chief (thief?) in Ghana claiming to be above the laws of the land, yet also claims he is powerless to stop galamsey when chiefs of the Volta Region have done exactly that. When Asantehene issued curfews after the deaths of his mother and sister, did a fly even disobey him? Given how hopelessly subservient you are to his crooked ways, do you believe he doesnt have the power to stop galamsey in the Ashanti Region when children are being born deformed, people showing up to hospitals with kidney and other deleterious effects of galamsey? And people are dying while this thief makes money off of galsmsey.

In what sense isnt he robbing the current and future generations?

I'm not an Ashanti because I don't worship the crook called Asantehene?

Go through my logic and see if Asantehene is worthy of the veneration that you guys accord him. I respect chiefs who have the interest of their subjects at heart 100%. I don't respect thieves with mansions in South Africa, Maryland, Britain, etc, who can flee the country for survival elsewhere while their subjects deal with the deleteriousness of galamsey.

Can you tell me if you truly believe Asantehene doesnt have the power to stop galamsey in his territory? If he can't, then in what sense is he not inferior to the chiefs of the Volta Region who have done that? And if Asantehene is capable of stopping the menace but says he can't, in what sense is he not evil, when people are literally dying?

Make that make sense.

What is wrong with those people blaming The Ashanti King for the ills of the galamsey issues. Who controls the police and the security forces? Are you saying the president,the commander of the Ghana armed forces, the IGPand the ministers of land and mineral resources do not know the sites where all these criminal activities are going on? Why did the IGP run away from Bawku. Why are we still tolerating criminals when Ghana police and our respected armed forces are doing nothing? Let the President, The ministers of Land and Mineral Resources, and all who are concerned implement the state of emergency. And who told you that Volta Region and the other mentioned areas have no galamsey activities because of any action by the chiefs. The reason is that those areas have no gold. Let all you fools not drag the name of our respected King of Ashanti in these negetive activities.

You are asking stupid questions, my friend. Chiefs in the Volta Region have outlawed galamsey in their territories; however, Asantehene, who claims to be above the laws of Ghana, says he is powerless to act. Dont the chiefs in the Volta Region know about the IGP, the president, and other authorities? Have you heard of any chief from the Volta Region participating in galamsey? Asantehene is neckdeep in the menace, hence claiming he is powerless to act. In the meantime, babies are being born with deformities, people are going to the hospital with kidney and other diseases. People are dropping dead.

Keep your nonsense to yourself if you don't have the common sense to know that the primary purpose of a chief is to protect and nurture their wellbeing, not destroy their well-being to enrich themselves.

What can the average citizen do about the galamsey issue, for example, when the big men in the NDC, NPP, and traditional leaders are neckdeep in it? A fish rots from the head down. Everything starts with the leadership, and the citizens follow suit.

Are the police that lenient to have allowed the remaining 10 live to come back to continue with their criminal act?

For the first time, we can commend the police for good work done but they shouldn't have treated the remaining 10 with kids gloves. Imagine each of the gang is armed, some of the policemen who participated in the operation would have been gunned down, so why spare a single on whether armed or not.

We don't need armed robbery as profession in our country/society.
