Ghana’s fight against ‘galamsey’ worthless – Inusah Fuseini explains why

Former Tamale Central Member of Parliament(MP) Alhaji Inusah Fuseini has said that Ghana’s fight against illegal mining otherwise known as Galamsey will be worthless considering the number of Chinese nationals living in the country.

The government of Ghana has instituted measures to ensure that illegal mining ends across the country in order to protect the country’s forest and water bodies which have been destroyed with chemicals.

But speaking on Bolgatanga-based A1 Radio monitored by MyNewsGH.com, the former lawmaker said that “Ghana is believed to be housing the largest Chinese nationals in the whole of West Africa and majority of these people are either into the galamsey act or something that goes beyond galamsey. So, for us to win the fight against galamsey, then proper measures ought to be put in place. We have to take who comes and leaves seriously”.

He indicated further that although the government has created a scene of fighting illegal mining, he is not sure the success expected by the people of Ghana will be chalked.

Inusah Fuseini called on the government of Ghana to equip Immigration officers so that they are able to track whoever comes into the country and activities they are engaged in.

Although an exact number is not clear, one unsubstantiated speculation is that the Chinese living in Ghana might number to be as extremely high as nearly 700,000 people. This would however mean that an impossible 2,4% of the people in Ghana are of Chinese heritage

Most Ghanaians have been initiated into occultism by their Pastors – Papa Shee

Evangelist Papa Shee says most Ghanaians have been initiated into occultism by Pastors. According to him, most Pastors in Ghana currently are occults and with the way they are been celebrated by their followers, they initiate them into occult groups without their knowledge. He mentioned that Ghanaians lack knowledge and that has always been the reason why Pastors take advantage of them.

Residents of Samreboi cry on gov’t to fix their roads

Residents of Samreboi are up in arms with the Government of Ghana over neglect of their roads. According to residents, It has become very worrying as their bad road network is affecting not only economic activities but also their social activities. Residents of the timber and Cocoa producing town in the Western Region of Ghana say they have been unfairly treated by several governments; the neglect they say they do not know what to attribute it to. A worrying feature of their roads they say is the fact that moving from Samreboi to neighbouring villages and towns become impossible especially during the rainy season hence bringing economic activities to a standstill. Residents say even though the year has been declared “Year of Roads” they are yet to see a kilometre of road being constructed.
