Galamsey fight must go beyond empty slogans; it requires conscious effort – Methodist Church

Speaking at the opening of the Methodist Church Ghana’s 52nd Conference 2026, he said recent devastating floods had exposed shortcomings in the way Christians approach environmental stewardship.

The Methodist Church Ghana has renewed calls for urgent and sustained action against illegal mining, popularly known as galamsey, warning that the destruction of farmlands and contamination of water bodies are posing a growing threat to the country’s future.

He consequently called on religious bodies to intensify advocacy and practical interventions aimed at protecting the environment, preserving Ghana’s water bodies and farmlands, and promoting responsible stewardship of the country’s natural resources.
