The Managing Editor of the New Crusading Guide newspaper, Kweku Baako Jnr says if care is not taken, the negatives being recorded in the fight against galamsey can collapse the entire campaign.
He made this comment while reacting to the NDC’s ‘Moment of Truth’, on Wednesday’s edition of Peace FM's morning show ‘Kokrokoo’.
The National Democratic Congress (NDC) at a 'Moment of Truth' press briefing led by its National Communication Officer, Sammy Gyamfi described President Akufo-Addo’s galamsey fight as a monumental failure.
But Kweku Baako disagrees
According to him, “there’ve been gains and so I disagree that the whole galamsey fight has been a failure or fiasco . . . there have been some positives and negatives and those negatives if not checked can collapse the entire campaign. The potential for the spectacular failure is there; the seeds are there.”

Ghanafo paaa. So we are not able to marshal the resources to fight this problem within a small country, called Ghana? Is the President bound by some sort of agreement to still retain the various heads of the security agencies, who are or their outfits are involved in the fight? This is too sad. Or are we waiting or praying that the problem by some uncaused action will go away? We have to help the president, and the President also has to accept our help, that comes in the form of criticism, suggestions, etc. It's not looking that good at all.
Kweku Baako junior with hypocrisy, what gains have we made as a country since the ban on the so called illegal activity?
I don't see why galamsay issue that has been dealt with has now become a focus of discussion to some people. govt has streamlined the process and people are back to work. if there are fresh evidence that points to backwardness in the activities of galamsay, then people like kwaku baako and those raising issues, should let us know. these vague and empty talks are not necessary. or people are making noise because govt has ignored that concert video of so called expose from kwaku bakoo's outfit?
