🔥 "Chinese Caught Digging Up Our Future: Galamsey Busted Near Subin River – Excavators, Guns, and Greed Seized!" 🔥
-A few years ago, I stood by the Subin River with my little nephew, just skipping stones. He was about 6. He looked up at me and said, “Uncle, why is the water brown now?”
I didn’t have an answer.
Fast forward to today, and boom—the headlines hit: Four Chinese nationals arrested for illegal mining near that same Subin River. Guns seized. Excavators confiscated.
I felt sick to my stomach.
Not just because it’s happening. But because it keeps happening.
-“I thought we were past this…”
That was my first thought, scrolling through the story. I mean, weren’t there task forces? Raids? Press conferences and promises?
But here we are.
Again.
This time, in the quiet town of Manso Keniago, close to the Subin River—our Subin River. They weren’t just stealing gold. They were stealing futures.
With loaded weapons by their side, as if the land was a war zone. (I don’t know about you, but that hits different.)
-Let’s be real: it’s not just “some Chinese guys”
I might be wrong, but here’s what I’ve noticed:
These things don’t happen in isolation.
There’s always a local connection. Some hidden hand, some quiet nod, some official who “didn’t know” until it made headlines.
And while these four might face the music, what about the ones funding it? The ones protecting it? The ones profiting while pretending to care?
-I keep thinking about the river...
How many kids still think brown, dead water is normal?
How many farmers have walked away from cracked, poisoned land?
How many stories like this do we need before we say, “Enough”?
It’s not just about foreign nationals. It’s about us.
Our silence.
Our fear.
Our lack of real action.
-Can we even fix this?
I’m not sure. But I know this:
Every time we let this slide, another river dies.
Every time we look the other way, another forest fades.
And every time we shrug and move on… we lose a piece of Ghana.
-So here’s my question:
What do we do when the same hands that came to trade now come to take?
And will we finally draw a line—not just in the sand, but in law, in action, and in unity?
Because I’d really like to take my nephew back to Subin one day…
And not have to explain why the water is gone.
