A Ghanaian illegal miner, popularly known as a galamseyer and identified only as Emma, has been captured on camera in a heated altercation with a Chinese national believed to be his paymaster at a galamsey site.
The cause of the altercation is not immediately known, but in the video, Emma is heard threatening to beat the Chinese man in the local dialect, Twi.
Emma also claimed that the Chinese national had scratched him with his fingernails, causing him pain.
Although it is unclear whether the Chinese national understood the language, he appeared visibly angered by Emma's words and made several gestures suggesting he was ready to fight back.
