Who Is Killing Ghana With Illegal Mining Galamsey, Chinese Or Ghana Government?
22.04.2014 LISTEN

The Price of Gold in Ghana: Chinese illegal mining in Ghana, which is killing hundreds of Ghanaian People every month through both "Galamsey" operational accidents and Pollution of local drinking water.

Do we have to blame mainly the Chinese illegal miners or to (90%) Ghana Government (Security Forces) through corruption?

Ghana, as we are all aware is still experiencing a new Gold rush with the widespread of corruption causing the illegal mining to flourish.

Because Ghana took a 3 Billion Dollar loan from China for infrastructure and other developments, it encourages hundreds of Chinese entering Ghana illegal every year to do illegal mining with the help of our chiefs and the Security Forces at the Immigration and Police Departments .

The Chinese illegal mining activities in the Country are not only damaging our farming lands and polluting our local drinking water but also killing hundreds of Ghanaian People every month through technical incompetence and failure. While women are losing their Husbands, parents too lose their children who are lured from Schools to do Galamsey.

First of all, most of the Chinese miners are completely illegal in the Country without Requisite documents to stay in the Country and yet bribe their way through to undertake illegal mining ("Galamsey") Business throughout the Country and on top own illicit Guns.
