    Pure wickedness! A result of impunity, despondency and arrogance.

  • DotCom 2 years ago

    Unfortunately, this kind of violence against innocent civilians will increase because we have leaders who don’t believe in law and order but do things the way they want. Hopefully, the family of the deceased will have justi ...

    They should rather investigate how he got recruited into the police service. Is he a trotro driver or a police officer? More of such ones have been recruited by the government and they are in our midst to cause trouble. You w ...

    When recruitment to the Ghana Police Service is based on affiliation to the ruling party and is done in secret, these are some of the unfortunate and avoidable situations that may arise.

    Yes, this is what happens when you dont practice democracy. Fake democracy benefitting only the rich. Almost all are civil servants are criminals.

  • JACK TORONTO 2 years ago

    There is no professional police officer who will do this. Why was he using the pistol meant for official purposes while he was not on duty? This results to when unqualified citizens are fixed in positions they don't merits.

    Hmmmmmm, NDC recruitment.

    You can insult our prophet Muhammad (pbuh) thousand times, but we remain Muslims. This shows how you were nurtured and brought up. It indicates that you came from a dysfunctional family.

  • Mambo 2 years ago

    Exactly, the same way a police appeared from nowhere and shot a soldier dead who had just disarmed a highway robber along the Kumasi -Tamale highway some years ago. That policeman is still in the service , nothing done to him

  • Ghanaman 2 years ago

    This has nothing to do with training. This emotionally unstable man had no business holding a gun, let alone being in the police service.
