The Ghanaian government is facing mounting pressure to end illegal mining, known as galamsey, from various stakeholders, including Dr. Papa Kwesi Nduom, founder of the Progressive People's Party (PPP).
During a recent Facebook live session, Nduom criticized the government for prioritizing political interests over environmental protection and public safety.
He accused officials of knowing the necessary actions to combat galamsey but avoiding them due to electoral concerns.
Recent attacks on journalists covering galamsey's impact highlight the ongoing dangers associated with this issue.
Calls for a decisive response to protect Ghana's natural resources continue to grow.
