Illegal mining activities in Ghana are doing more harm than good. The miners are destroying our lands as well as the water bodies. Many people drink from these waters being polluted by the illegal miners. Recently, a school child fell in the pit dug by these miners and died. The government of Ghana is now serious about getting rid of theses illegal mining activities in the country.

The president and his team are doing their best to kick these illegal miners out. So far, some of the miners have been arrested.
