KNOWLEDGE WITHOUT WISDOM IS A CURSE - Ghanaian Times

KNOWLEDGE WITHOUT WISDOM IS A CURSE June 1, 2021 0 4 minutes read I do not blame the people who think that it is “illegal” for the Government to order soldiers engaged in “Operation Halt”, to burn the excavators, bulldozers and other equipment seized at galamsey sites. Politics has been defined as “the art of the possible”, and past Governments, as well as the present one, have been struggling to balance what they find to be a delicate problem concerning the widespread operation of galamsey, with the need not to alienate their supporters. The NPP Government, for instance, has been trying to entice “small-scale miners” to adopt safe, scientifically-approved mining methods, without success. In 2018, it actually paid miners to go for short-term educational courses, at the University of University of Mines and Technology (UMaT), Tarkwa. 

Burn all John Boadu s mining excavators - NPP Gen Secretary to Operation Halt

705 The General Secretary of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), John Boadu has endorsed the destruction of excavators being used for illegal mining (galamsey) in Ghana. To him, the burning of the excavators was a sure way to help stop the menace which has led to the destruction of water bodies and many forests in Ghana. Unlike previous attempts to flush out illegal miners from Ghana’s water bodies and forest reserves, the government has decided that all equipment to be seized under the new effort to end galamsey will be destroyed on-site. Already, military personnel under the command of their superiors have destroyed a number of excavators, changfans (washing machines) and other equipment.

Kate Gyamfua s excavators were burnt because she criticized the Roads Minister - NDC alleges | Latest News Updates & Newspaper Headlines

A statement issued by Mr Darlas Ampomah Williams, Regional Communication Officer of the NDC on Monday, 16 May 2021, said the action of the galamsey fighters, in the case of Ms Gyamfua’s company, is a proxy personal vendetta for publicly calling out the Minister of Roads and Highways, Mr Kwesi Amoako-Atta, who also happens to be the MP for the Atiwa West constituency, for his discriminatory fixing of roads in the region. “It is public knowledge how Ms Kate Gyamfua has bemoaned the horrible state of other roads in the Eastern Region apart from the hometowns of the President and his cousin, the Roads Minister and personally called him out to act without discrimination”, the statement said.
