As Ghanaians clamour about the disturbing effect of illegal mining to our land, Kwame Baffoe has suggested that foreigners mainly Chinese nationals, who are behind the act, should be arrested and later deported.

The Brong Ahafo Regional Youth of the New Patriotic Party noted on ATV’s Asem Yi Di Ka show that Ghanaians shouldn’t put all their energy into political matters but rather concentrate on how to preserve our land from people who are harming it.

Kwame Baffoe who is popularly known as ‘Abronye’ indicated that the menace was becoming difficult to deal with due to the role some chiefs and politicians play in the illegal mining business.   

He particularly singled out the Chinese illegal miners and cautioned our authorities to deport such nationals when caught engaging in the galamsey business. This he said must be done to save “our lands and rivers from degrading.”

“I will do what it takes to help fight illegal activities in Ghana and I will strike any Chinese who refuses to stop galamsey in Ghana”, he said.
