Galamsey activities on water bodies in Ghana have persisted

Dear critical reader, in an AI-era in which there are many developmental paths other than destructive surface gold mining, to bedrock the transformation of emerging nations into prosperous societies in which all demographics enjoy high living standards, why should wise and aspirational Africans continue to tolerate ruinious surface gold mining, both legal and illegal in nature?

Ghanafuor, if galamsey isn’t an undeclared war being waged against our nation – in an era of extreme weather when we should be preserving our priceless biodiversity-rich rainforests that are now infinitely more valuable than all the minerals underneath them combined – then someone should tell us what exactly it is, when such egregious nation-wrecking impunity still persists: despite the huge sacrifices being made by National Anti-Illegal Mining Operations Secretariat (NAIMOS) personnel, risking their lives daily while being stabbed in the back by the rolling leaking of their operational plans for targets earmarked for raids. Yooooooooooo…

Let us unite to fight what in reality is an apocalyptic existential threat of biblical proportions before it becomes too late to save the remainder of our natural heritage, oooo, Ghanafour.

It shouldn’t be allowed to be turned into political football, under any circumstances.

It’s an existential threat that can doom the future of all Ghanaians without exception if it isn’t curtailed. Yoooooooooo…

Furthermore, to save the situation, surely, a wise and aspirational African people, ought to demand that the Forestry Commission should be absorbed into the Ghana Armed Forces (GAF), as soon as practicable, as a Specialised Forest Protection and Enhancement Unit, to transform all our forest reserves into security zones, from which all civilians are banned, and entry into which is sanctioned only by written permission of the Military High Command, anaaaa, Ghanafuor? Yooooooooooo.

Finally, this is a war we must win in an AI-era in which there are many developmental paths other than destructive surface gold mining, to bedrock the transformation of emerging nations into prosperous societies in which all demographics enjoy high living standards.

A word to the wise…
