\"This<\/p>\n

When justice drags and the rivers run brown, who really benefits, the people, or the power brokers behind the scenes? This Saturday on Newsfile, we ask whether Ghana\u2019s fight against corruption and galamsey is breaking new ground or sinking into old habits.<\/p>\n

When justice is delayed, is it simply the wheels of the law grinding slowly or a deliberate attempt to cut deals in the shadows? The ORAL initiative, hailed as a bold anti-corruption drive, now faces sharp criticism. <\/p>\n

Nine months on, prosecutions crawl, with former Auditor-General Daniel Domelevo warning that delays only embolden corrupt actors. Others insist that due process takes time. So, is ORAL a shield of accountability or a smokescreen for sabotage?<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, NAIMOS is in overdrive. In the last two months, its task force has stormed forests and rivers, seized or destroyed dozens of excavators, over a hundred chanfang and pumping machines, and arrested scores of illegal miners, including foreign nationals in Wassa Akropong and Bole. <\/p>\n

Just this week, along the Ankobra River, NAIMOS torched nearly 100 makeshift structures and confiscated heavy equipment in a sweeping raid. <\/p>\n

Backed by new funding and vehicles from the Gold Board, the task force is pledging no safe haven for kingpins, but questions remain. Are these decisive blows to the galamsey economy, or just temporary disruptions in a much bigger illegal gold network?<\/p>\n

Join host Samson Lardy Anyenini this Saturday on Newsfile at 9 a.m. on JoyNews, JoyFm 99.7, and MyJoyOnline to connect the dots: legal delays, sabotage fears, rampaging galamsey syndicates, and the fight to reclaim Ghana\u2019s resources.<\/p>\n
