Posts contrast the nation's vibrant flag with contaminated waterways like the Tano River, polluted by galamsey—illegal small-scale gold mining using mercury and cyanide that has damaged over 60% of rivers, forests, and water supplies for millions.

President Mahama's recent address promised operations in hotspots, prosecutions, and targeting major operators, but activists say action remains too slow while rivers stay brown.

The Supreme Federal Court's First Panel unanimously sentenced Domingos Inácio Brazão and his brother João Francisco Brazão to 76 years and three months each for masterminding the double homicide of Franco and her driver Anderson Gomes, the attempted murder of her aide, and leading a militia-linked criminal group.

The verdict, based on shooters' plea deals, brought closure to a case that exposed deep ties between politicians, police, and militias, with Franco's sister Anielle Franco calling it a historic step against political violence targeting Black women.
