Ghanaians residing in the United Kingdom have demonstrated their solidarity with fellow citizens by participating in a growing series of anti-galamsey protests.
This event reflects their commitment to raising awareness about the detrimental impact of illegal mining on Ghana’s environment and communities.
The demonstration took place in front of the Ghana High Commission in London, where participants aimed to draw attention to the pressing issue of galamsey.
They expressed concern over the environmental degradation caused by illegal mining activities, which have been linked to serious consequences for local ecosystems and the livelihoods of many Ghanaians.
The protest attracted a diverse group of attendees, including students, professionals, and community leaders, all united in their commitment to the cause.
This coalition highlights the widespread concern among Ghanaians, both at home and abroad, regarding the ongoing crisis surrounding illegal mining.
Participants held placards featuring powerful messages such as “Blood, Gold, Greed!,” “Water No Bi Politics,” and “Stop Illegal Mining Now!”
These slogans underscored the urgent call for action against galamsey, emphasising the need for immediate measures to protect Ghana’s natural resources and promote sustainable practices.
