A young man involved in illegal mining, known as “galamsey,” has been recorded making disturbing threats of violence against law enforcement, stating he would rob and kill in retaliation for the government’s intensified crackdown on galamsey activities.
In a video widely circulated on social media, the miner can be seen displaying his mining equipment, which he claimed was rendered useless due to the government’s increased efforts to end illegal mining. He expressed frustration, stating, “I am coming to rob and kill you one by one.”
This statement comes after the government deployed police and military forces to enforce stricter laws in areas designated as “Red Zones,” where mining is prohibited.
The move is part of a broader campaign aimed at addressing the environmental damage and public health crisis caused by galamsey, including the contamination of rivers and water bodies.
However, following the viral video, the man issued an apology, claiming that his initial comments were made in jest.
“I beg you all, in the name of God, it was just a normal video I made. Please take it as if I were a child who was only fooling around in the video,” he said, asking for forgiveness.
Despite the apology, many social media users are calling for his arrest, urging the Ghana Police Service to take immediate action.
