Movie Producer Paul Gee & Other Top Stars Wage War On Galamsey Communities!

Renowned Ghanaian movie and music producer Paul Adjei, also known as Paul Gee of Paul Gee Productions, has taken a strong stand in the fight against illegal mining, or galamsey, in Ghana. Concerned about the environmental destruction, he plans to lead a movement within the creative arts industry to raise awareness and demand immediate action. Adjei has vowed to organize demonstrations in galamsey-affected communities, uniting actors, musicians, and other creatives in the fight.

Several key organizations according to the celebrated producer, have already pledged their support, including; the Ghana Association of Photographers Industry (GAPI), the Audio-Visual Rights Society of Ghana (ARSOG), the Ghana Music Rights Owners (GHAMRO), the Musicians Union of Ghana (MUSIGA), the Actors Guild, and the Film Producers Association of Ghana (FIPAG). Together, they aim to bring national attention to the environmental and social devastation caused by galamsey.

Paul Gee also criticized recent #NoToGalamsey protests in Accra, questioning why protests were being held in the capital rather than in the affected communities.

The real impact is in these communities, and that’s where the fight should be,

he remarked.

Paul Gee: A Creative Arts Leader and Advocate

With over two decades in the creative arts industry, Paul Adjei has made his mark as a music and movie producer, working with top artists like Ernest Opoku, Ohene Ba E.K., and Aseibu Amanfi. He has produced acclaimed films like Ama Ghana, Okomfo Anokye, and Mallam Issah, making him a significant figure in both Ghanaian music and film. Beyond production, Adjei has served in leadership roles with the Film Producers Association of Ghana (FIPAG) and the Audio-Visual Rights Society of Ghana (ARSOG).

Leading the Charge Against Galamsey

Paul Adjei’s fight against galamsey is a reflection of his deep concern for Ghana’s future. Illegal mining not only destroys farmlands and pollutes water bodies, but it also threatens livelihoods and future generations. By using his platform, Adjei aims to push for stronger reforms and enforcement of laws to protect Ghana’s natural resources.

Supported by influential industry organizations, Paul Gee’s movement has the potential to become a pivotal force in the national effort to combat illegal mining and protect Ghana’s environment for generations to come.
