Ghanaian media personality Nana Aba Anamoah has lauded Vice President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia’s approach to addressing the issue of illegal mining, known locally as “galamsey.” <\/p>\n

According to her, his solution is the most practical solution she has encountered.<\/p>\n

Dr. Bawumia, during a stakeholder meeting, proposed a preventive strategy by sanitising the small-scale mining sector. <\/p>\n

His solutions include empowering the Geological Survey Authority to map mineral reserves and creating a resource pool of equipment to support sustainable mining practices. <\/p>\n

He also highlighted the use of mercury-free gold catcher machines to ensure environmentally responsible mining. <\/p>\n

Reacting to this in a post on X on Friday, October 11, 2024, Nana Aba expressed her support for Dr Bawumia’s proposals.<\/p>\n

She stated that Dr. Bawumia’s strategy showed a deep understanding of the intricacies of galamsey and offered realistic measures to combat it. <\/p>\n

“I just listened to Dr Bawumia\u2019s remarks on galamsey. Glad he\u2019s finally commented on the menace. His solution is the most practical one I\u2019ve heard so far. I hope he walks the talk if he gets the mandate,” she posted.<\/p>\n

Nana Aba called on all Ghanaians to support measures that protect the country’s water bodies and forest reserves, stating that sustainable development is better than the short-term gains from illegal mining.<\/p>\n
