Labour you have kept long too much because this is the only language that akufo addo understand

[@josephdarko5407]

Yes if the president does not no his responsibilities as commander in chief teach him.

[@josephdarko5407]

All what president akufo addo is thinking about is how he will get agyapadea before living office but not to stop galamsay

[@juliamensah8290]

It is very late from labour, but bravo👏

[@Naalee30205]

Vietnam war didn’t destroyed their rivers and lands. There’s no war in Ghana yet it’s just like a war zone. The land and rivers are crying for help. Ghana children are in danger.

[@captainearth-wire3704]

[@leonardquartey6234]

True..stop all Mining even legal or illegal .. period.. arrest wotumi

[@kaftt2199]

This is reactionary. Ghanaians only react to what we see in the news this has been happening for decades noimprovements. 10 years of NPP and its the worst we have ever seen.

[@Naalee30205]

The farmers should demonstrate big time

[@seeker6757]

I am worried you kept so long. They will try to come after you, but be firm in your decision. U saw all the signals but you kept quite. The packing of supreme courts, the partisan security recruitment, the tempered EC register, the national cathedral, etc. And I was worried because if there is no peace, there is no organised Labour. Wake up guys. You are only only hope. Possibly, form a party and let's review the constitution. We are far behind.

[@richardmensah3452]

They just don't care about us. Really strange who they are protecting. Sensible thing to do is to engage all these stakeholders, explain your position and act on their advise

[@tn5403]

These are things that we have been looking up to; it seems organized labor has sat on the fence far too long; kudos from waking up from your slumber. Let's not bow down on this because directly or indirectly we are all in danger

[@josephdarko5407]

Labour union don't listen to anyone about your actions you wanted to take because this minister is one of them who are creating all this dubious things

[@josephdarko5407]

There is no need for Labour union to meet the president, because he new this horrible things that is going on they should act now

[@amisco333]

For democratic consideration they have to let him know. When he fails to address the concern and they act, he has no one to blame

[@JamesAkatey]

Ghanaians have given too much rooms to Akuffo Addo and his govt, and they are ridding you like horses that are on drugs

[@MahmoudSeidi]

Abu jinapor is into mining 😊

[@ashtownsakatu4098]

Ooo Ghana 🇬🇭 kwame Nkrumah’s Ghana 😢😢😢hmmm how did we get here as a Nation

[@MahmoudSeidi]

People are seeing mining on Kumasi highway and no one is arrested. We talk too much. All these people will be sorted out before the elections and the will keep quiet. Disgraceful

[@richardmensah3452]

So all this while, you didn't tell the ministers to act.

[@ABempah]

Post colonial governments are solely responsible for the galamsey menace. Unemployed and hungry Ghanaians,in order to survive,have resorted to illegal surface mining and thereby polluting the nation’s water bodies. Nkrumah’s much touted imports substitution industrialization was tantamount to doing the right at the wrong time. The all powerful almighty God,who spoke the earth into existence, didn’t need six days to finish creation,he could undoubtedly finish creation in one day or even one second. But just as in his usual humility came to earth and was brutally crucified on the cross by mankind he created in his own image,systematically finished creation in six days. Why six days? Maybe almighty God is speaking to mankind,through his holy book that because of limited resources,it’s not good to start two or more major projects concurrently. In a nutshell,had president Nkrumah first made holistic investments in mechanized agriculture,including construction of canals to carry water to potential farming areas for irrigation and transportation,ghana now would be exporting more food than imports. Attainment of mechanized agriculture,would have eventually created a pool of unemployed farm workers,since farm machines would replace human workers. Then implementation of imports substitution industrialization, including development of a whole new city from scratch would be sustainable and a sound policy,since it would create new lucrative factory jobs to absorb displaced farm workers. The rush to implement imports substitution industrialization in the absence of rural development and mechanized agriculture,merely triggered farm workers in the neglected rural areas without clean drinking water and electricity to migrate for the newly created lucrative factory jobs in cities where all the modern amenities were concentrated. It should be noted that,great United States of America,didn’t become industrial giant overnight, the way Nkrumah had wanted ghana to be. But rather it has evolved from agriculture to industrialization and now information economy. The great United States now a highly industrial country still export more food than imports,because of strong agriculture foundation, while so called Nkrumah ghana a subsaharan Africa country,blessed with vast and fertile arable land imports more food than exports. Meanwhile ghana now is going through a crisis of high unemployment in overcrowded cities. The poorly planned import substitution industrialization,contributed significantly in ghana’s decline as world leading producer and exporter of cocoa at the time of independence.
