How did all these people enter Ghana? I am sure someone must have facilitated their entry—purposely to come and mine illegally…
I was told a disturbing story of Chinese miners who took Ghanaians hostage in their own country so they can force these Ghanaians at gunpoint to mine, cook and wash for them…
Interestingly, the police did nothing about this since the foreigners had managed to buy their conscience.
Apart from subjecting Ghanaians to inhumane treatment in their own country, these illegal foreign miners are destroying our vegetation, landscape and water bodies without permission…
A foreigner dare try this in China or India, yet they continue to do this in Ghana!
According to The Ghanaian Times;
A total of 47 foreign nationals have been rounded up by the presidential task-force against illegal mining at Dunkwa-on-Offin, in the Central Region.
Those arrested included Chinese and Indian nationals.A search conducted revealed a substance suspected to be cocaine on one of the Chinese.The foreigners were arrested in their hotel in the early hours of Tuesday.
