Ghanaian fashion critic, Charlie Dior, has openly voiced his displeasure over President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo’s silence on the escalating concerns surrounding Galamsey and the ongoing protests against illegal mining activities.
In his statement, Dior emphasised that while it is troubling that the president appears indifferent to the struggles of his people, his lack of response to the Galamsey issue makes it painfully obvious.
Charlie Dior urged the president to demonstrate some level of concern, particularly as protests against the environmental damage caused by Galamsey continue to grow.
He believes that as a leader, the president has a responsibility to address these matters and cannot afford to remain silent when the nation’s natural resources, especially water bodies and lands, are being degraded.
Numerous public figures, including celebrities and media personalities, have already taken a stand, using their platforms to call for action and condemn the illegal mining practices.
They have voiced their concerns about the devastating effects that Galamsey activities have on the environment, urging for stronger interventions to protect Ghana’s natural resources.
Dior’s criticism highlights the widespread frustration many Ghanaians feel over the ongoing damage caused by illegal mining and the government’s perceived lack of action in addressing these pressing environmental issues.
