Ghanaians residing in the United Kingdom have expressed their support for fellow citizens in Ghana by participating in the escalating anti-galamsey protests.

Gathering outside the Ghana High Commission in London, the demonstrators sought to highlight the severe impacts of illegal mining, commonly referred to as “galamsey,” on both the environment and local communities in Ghana.

The demonstration attracted a varied crowd, encompassing students, professionals, and community leaders, all coming together for a shared purpose.

They held placards with messages such as “Blood, Gold, Greed!” “Water No Bi Politics,” and “Stop Illegal Mining Now!.”
