YOUNGEST EMPIRE

#Look@GalamsayAgain.       (Part 2) We Need Help. It is gradually getting bad and I cannot take it any longer. We all used to drink from the Rivers Yaya, Anikoko, Krupa, Ahyire and the sweet and refreshing Forson springs, until I met my colleague unemployed graduate who mentioned to me that he has gotten an investment partner. In a few days I saw and heard some machines making noise all over and then the stream was beginning to change colour, just like a bleaching African lady. Soon the water was undrinkable. I am still jobless and my colleague is now a big time bank roller. He drilled a bolehole near his house to sell and now my whole community will have to buy water from his tap, including my poor grandmother who has to carry water now from home to farm because it is the same stream that runs through our family land. It was just pathetic that I saw the family of our village chief also buying water from his subjects. You see?  Now our farms...

We members of concerned galamseyers and small scale miners of Wassa Amenfi  are aware of the growing negativity against galamsey by the media in Ghana. This probably has been engendered by land degradation and water pollution issues related to galamsey. As a result, there is mounting pressure on authorities to ban galamsey. Yes, galamsey and small scale mining have brought many environmental and social issues, but we the galamseyers and small scale miners of Wassa Amenfi believe that a ban is not the way forward! Recognition, regularization and re-formalization are the best ways. Galamsey and small-scale mining occurs in about 45 countries on the continent of Africa, providing direct employment to more than 9 million people and supporting over 54 million dependents. It is a significant source of cobalt used in the production of lithium ion batteries to power cell phones, laptop computers and electric vehicles. Galamsey and Small scale mining in Congo, Ghana and Sierra Leone...

                                               *GALAMSAY, THE DEATH OF ME*       Illegal mining which is popularly known as Galamsay has over some few days now become an issue of national interest. The fight against illegal mining has been on the rise after the sectoral minister, Hon. James Peter Amewu gave his 3 weeks ultimatum. Civil society, media and the general public have expressed their displeasure of the menace which has rendered our lands infertile and waters inhabitable for aquatic lives. However, they have all failed to suggest the possible solutions to get rid of the menace once and for all.  Arguably illegal mining should be looked as a multi-faceted issue which stems it root from inevitable local economic crises, youth unemployment, conservatism and mass poverty. The actual people involved in the activity are predominan...

#Look@GalamseyAgain Barracks Chief to subordinate, "Commander, go, arrest all galamsey operators around Wassa Japa, including their excavators and their chang-fan machines as well as their black", "Yes Sir Sir". Then Soldier calls the galamsey guru, "Honourable, please tell your guys that we are coming on an operation in their area so they should be smart and be on the watch out". Honourable sends his guy to transfer some little cedis through mobile money to Commander and it is a done deal. A concerned citizen invites a journalist to come and make a story out of it and the Journalist is demanding coverage allowance. This scenario explains briefly why everyone is silent, and galamsey is on the rise. Who is destroying our environment? How much money has Ghana lost through illegal mining activities?  Who is to blame? I smile anytime I hear the usual hypocritical rhythm about this "galamsey" menace and I feel sad because I see no tr...
