This lawlessness should stop. We cannot allow these criminals to endanger the lives of state officials who are doing their work.
The Forestry Commission should be militarised and armed to deal ruthlessly with these criminals.
This is not acceptable.
1. Let's talk about "Ghana taking control of its minerals".
2. But let's go beyond the usual katanomics and debate the HOW too.
3. There is a nationalist wave blowing all over the world. The terms may be fancy - "strategic autonomy," "geopolitical decoupling," "near-shoring", or "deglobalisation" - but same sentiment
4. "Economic nationalism" is sexy again. Why else would market-friendly Chile seek to nationalise its lithium?
5. But is the Ghana version really about "nationalism?"
6. Folks don't talk about ownership of banks & telcos anymore. Have the bruises of the last few decades made Ghanaians comfortable with "foreign banks" and "foreign telcos"?
7. There is talk of a "national airline" again, though. After two disastrous runs and a decade-long process that led nowhere.
8. Where I see absolute clarity is in the gold sector. Ghanaians want "Ghana to take control" of the country's gold mines.
9. There is a reason the focus is on gold. Discussions in Ghana are almost always about the VISIBLE. Gold is booming so time to cash in. The chattering elites rarely bother to look beneath the surface.
10. So, either they don't know or they have forgotten that there are other minerals in the country.
11. In the case of diamonds, Ghanaian elites have largely been in charge for at least 5 decades. The result is massive underinvestment and the collapse of the sector.
12. In the case of manganese, lithium, & bauxite, foreign control and lack of accountability have happened with the enthusiastic abetment of the elite. (Read some of the stuff I have written in the first comment.)
13. Everyone also conveniently forget that even for gold, we now have 50% of production in the hands of Ghanaians. Small-scale mining is restricted to Ghanaians.
14. So, if Ghana has not been able to use resources from mining to transform, the biggest reason must be because of POOR POLICY. End of story.
15. The recent attempt to paint the handover of mines to a few, highly connected, people as some kind of "resource nationalism" is just the standard katanomic shallowness.
16. Yes, ownership matters but "collective ownership" is not just about the nationality of a few individuals holding lease rights. It goes far beyond that.
17. Because, for all you know, such individuals can send most of the profits overseas and leave the wreckage behind for us: bank loan defaults, employee impoverishment, lack of R&D, environmental damage, and failure to grow reserves through exploration.
18. The world's most mineral-rich country per capita is Australia (with Russia, Canada, Saudi, & the US on its heels). If you analyse Australia's biggest mining projects over a two decade period, you will see that 85% - 90% are by foreign investors.
19. I also did the same for critical minerals in Europe's most mineral-rich countries (eg Germany, Sweden & Poland). Same thing.
20. Still, they ensure that the minerals BENEFIT the citizens. That is what ultimately collective ownership delivers.

The MCE in charge of Osu Cemetery, please keep a close eye on the place. There are miscreants who dig up graves, throw out remains, and sell the space to unsuspecting families who have lost their loved ones. This is unfair and unGhanaian. You need to take action.
Newcore Gold is excited to share that its Ghanaian subsidiary Cape Coast Resources has been awarded with the 'Excellence in Exploration (Junior Category)' at the 11th Ghana Mining Industry Awards 2025 held in Accra on December 5, 2025.
Congratulations to our entire exploration team, led by Greg Smith (VP Exploration) and Dan Wilson (Country Manager), for their hard work and commitment to advancing exploration in Ghana!

Congratulations to NAIMOS, we should deal decisively with these enviromental criminals. If any of them come up with force against your lawful activities. Meet them with commensurate force. AG, Chief Justice and IGP, you need to do better about the level of prosecutions.
Join us live on for the 11th Ghana Mining Industry Awards, as we honor outstanding achievements and celebrate the industry's potential for growth and positive impact.
