Reigning TGMA Artiste of the Year, Stonebwoy has become the latest high-profile figure to join the youth in the ongoing fight against illegal mining activities in Ghana.

The issue of illegal mining, otherwise known as Galamsey in local circles, has become a national focus in recent weeks, igniting a series of demonstrations that led to the arrest of some Democracy Hub group members at the 37 Roundabout.
