    Shoot to kill galamseyers if necessary – GHOne TV presenter advocates

    Media personality and broadcaster with GHOne TV and Starr FM, Lily Mohammed, is advocating for the implementation of a shoot-to-kill policy on illegal miners, popularly known as galamseyers, if that is what it takes to stop them from destroying water bodies.

    According to the outspoken journalist, galamseyers must be ruthlessly dealt with, as their activities have dire consequences for both human life and the environment.

    Speaking on GHOne TV, Lily Mohammed said the time has come for the state government to crack the whip on galamseyers, adding that the nation cannot afford to lose its water bodies to illegal mining.

    “When it comes to the fight against galamsey, our destiny lies in our hands as Ghanaians. If it is necessary to shoot and kill those destroying our water bodies, I subscribe to it. Because I will not wait for you to destroy my environment, put my life under threat, and jeopardize the future of my children and future generations before taking action. If we need to shoot them, let us go ahead and shoot to kill. That will serve as a proper deterrent.”

    In October 2024, Joseph Osei-Owusu, the former First Deputy Speaker of Parliament and Member of Parliament for Bekwai, reiterated his highly controversial and extreme approach to dealing with illegal mining, commonly known as galamsey.

    In a bold and unflinching statement made during a radio interview on Asaasepa, the former Deputy Speaker advocated for the adoption of a ‘shoot-to-kill’ policy as a means to combat the rampant galamsey activities that continue to plague Ghana’s water bodies and forests.

    Galamsey has been a longstanding issue in Ghana, particularly in rural areas, where individuals and groups often mine without proper permits or regard for environmental regulations.

    The environmental impact of galamsey has been devastating, with entire river systems contaminated by chemicals such as mercury and cyanide used in the extraction process.

    The destruction of forests and farmlands has also exacerbated concerns about the sustainability of the nation’s natural resources.

    Joe Wise’s radical proposal is based on the idea that extreme measures are necessary to confront an extreme problem.
