A group fighting illegal mining wants the government to cancel a law that lets companies dig in forest areas. The Ghana Coalition Against Galamsey says they will not accept changes to the rule. They want it completely removed from the books. Leaders promised to get rid of this law but have not done it after the elections. The group threatens to take the matter back to court if nothing happens soon.

The coalition wants the president to declare an emergency in areas where illegal mining takes place. They say these places have become dangerous with armed groups and violent attacks. Police officers help protect illegal miners instead of stopping them. Forest workers need armed guards because people attack them during their jobs. The group says military forces should watch these areas with drones.

Politicians from both major parties seem connected to illegal mining operations. The coalition wants investigations into specific lawmakers and party officials. They say the government must prosecute everyone involved regardless of their political connections. One member warns that middle class citizens need to demand action from their leaders. The group plans massive peaceful marches if the government refuses to act on their demands.
