It is not out of hatred or malice but out of our sheer desire to push you to act to safeguard the integrity of our water bodies, environment and humanity. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As I play a frontline role in pushing harder, I wish to deal with two key propaganda that I am told, are making it difficult for you to fight the menace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">First, it is not true that the abysmal electoral performance of your party in the 2020 elections, was as a result of your initial commitment to fighting illegal mining. It is a palpable lie. The NPP is supposed to be an elitist party. Such parties all over the world, take decisions on the basis of empirical facts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sir, you have in your Office, a Director of Research who is a great researcher and colleague of mine, in the person of Dr Isaac Owusu Mensah. Kindly ask him for the data on\u00a0 your party\u2019s performance in the 2020 elections in the areas where you sought initially to clampdown on illegal mining activities. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You would see that, your initial efforts in fighting illegal mining, never resulted in the abysmal performance of your party in 2020. Rather, the incompetence of your MP Aspirants in the areas, did. The data show that in many of such places, you received more votes than your MP Aspirants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The simple question is, why were you more popular in the areas where you were fighting illegal mining than your MP Aspirants? If the people wanted to punish your party for fighting illegal mining, they wouldn\u2019t have given you the number of votes you got. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Also, it is important I remind you that although some local people do illegal mining, many in the local communities who actually vote, tend to frown on it. Illegal mining is done more, by foreigners who do not even vote.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Therefore, the idea that addressing illegal mining would affect the electoral fortunes of the party as a whole, is not backed by any reliable scientific data. If you address the menace now, and if your MPs provide quality representation, your party would win the hearts of many Ghanaians and you may add the success as part of your free SHS legacy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Secondly, it cannot be true that the call on you to fight against illegal mining is happening just two months to election 2024, and it is aimed at making your party unpopular. Many calls have been made over the years but they\u2019ve never been heeded to with seriousness. Some of us joined in the call at the beginning of the year and you may find out this from the relevant authorities. They simply refused to listen and to act. Illegal mining predates your regime but unfortunately, it is in the twilight of your regime that its devastating impact has been more noticed and felt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That\u2019s why we are all fiery in our demand that the menace be tackled now. We are of the firm belief and conviction that human life and health transcends political power and the paltry proceeds of mining. That\u2019s why we are doing what we are doing today and now. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Also, if politicians tend to pay attention to demands more in an election year, then there\u2019s no appropriate time for the fiery demand that you help halt the cancers and health complications being experienced by the good people of Ghana, as a result of the senseless destruction of the very source of livelihood and existence of the people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yesterday, Ouattarab who doesn\u2019t have the kind of political pedigree you have, had to give you a dress down over illegal mining in a manner akin to the proverbial saying \u201coson bo f3m a, aboa biara bo no bi\u201d to wit, \u201cwhen the elephant falls, every animal hits it\u201d It was so embarrassing and I kept asking why we should even get here in the first place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The whole realm is under strain over a matter that should have never gotten here. I am aware of the recent deployment of some soldiers to deal with those destroying our water bodies and the proposal to withdraw the Legislative Instrument that enables mining in our protected areas. If these are sincere and candid moves, let them be sustained and let their outcomes be noticed in the next couple of days and we would applaud you. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Nkrumah once asked that Ghanaians be allowed to stew in their stupidity, but that was long ago. Not all of us can afford to spew in stupidity while even very mature, educated statesmen and stateswomen offer partisan rotten fight against those who fight to protect their very interest and wellbeing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As an individual of conviction, nothing would stop me from doing all I can in the fight against illegal mining. I won\u2019t relent until more concrete steps are taken. The sponsored infantile attacks, do not only show your party no longer have the men with superior argument to counter what I stand for in this fight. It also serves to remind me that, I am making impact, and for me, that\u2019s what matters. We must only do the kinds of things that I seek\u00a0 to do in demanding that we are governed well, for impact and not merely for the fun of it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As our President, I call on you to remember the presidential oath you took when you were were being sworn in as President of Ghana. Fighting illegal mining and urging your MPs to provide quality representation to the people, would rather help your party\u2019s electoral fortunes. Also, let it be reiterated that, the fiery call on you to halt illegal mining has only the altruistic agenda of seeking the wellbeing of Ghanaians, and no other agenda.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is typical of infant democracies for paid ignorant social media political land guards, and sometimes, even highly educated, grown men and women, to tag those who subject governments to strict proofs, take them on and demand accountability, as being partisan. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is very normal, but Mr President, under your regime, would it be too much for me to also ask that we grow and mature in our thoughts, in our reactions, and in the way we perceive those who keep leaders on their toes? Leadership, Mr President, is the CAUSE and every other thing, is an EFFECT.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Thank you!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yaw Gyampo<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A31, Prabiw<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">PAV Ansah Street<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Saltpond<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&amp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Suro Nipa House<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Behind Old Post Office<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Larteh-Akuapim.<\/p>\n\n                <p><strong>DISCLAIMER: <\/strong>The Views, Comments, Opinions, Contributions and Statements made by Readers and Contributors on this platform do not necessarily represent the views or policy of Multimedia Group Limited.<\/p>      \n               \n <!-- Post Tags -->\n                \n\n                        \n\n    \n                                 \n                                             \n                    <\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dear Sir, I belong to a group of Ghanaians who have adopted an uncompromising stance in the fight against illegal mining.
