The fight to stop galamsey has intensified recently as citizens around the country call on the leaders to put an end to the menace. According to the many voices, the galamsey activities are destroying the water bodies as well as posing a danger to the health of people.
The ‘Jejereje’ singer also added his voice to this all-important call. Stonebwoy through a social media post made his stands very clear when it comes to galamsey.
Stonebwoy’s post is in direct support to the three-day demonstration currently ongoing. In his post, he called on the leaders to find swift and decisive means to deal with the galamsey situation.
“As we touch the streets to advocate for the better. As we walk in the spirit footsteps of the Great ancestors that led us to freedom once upon a time. May our blood, sweat, and tears not remain vain… So we implore Gov’t or leadership (incoming or outgoing) to just validate our struggles by showing detailed plans on how to tackle the very pressing issues, such as ‘GALAMSEY’, that face us as Ghanaians and RIGIDLY COMMIT to it. Not forgetting the deplorable state of the Korle Bu mortuary, amongst many others,” Stonebwoy wrote.

Members of the first batch of demonstrators against galamsey are currently in police custody. The current demonstrators and other influential Ghanaians have called for their immediate release.
In another report, 32 of the protestors in police custody have dragged the IGP and the Attorney General to the court for human rights violations claims.
