Hmmm. this KOMSOR crime has been the bane of Ghanaian and Nigerian students since time immemorial.This is a disgrace to the country. If found guilty by the USA Judiciary and sentenced into Prison custody, they should immediately be deported to Ghana to face the struggle there. After their Prison Sentence, they should even not be allowed to go home alone. They should be bundled back to Ghana to face unemployment and the other struggles. There should be no sympathy for them.

Thank you @Roman. I blame no Ghanaian for trying to use "ways and means" to survive out there. When the Aryan Caucasian rascals were in our current similar circumstances, they used even more devilish means to survive. They raped and pillaged whole continents for the survival and advancement of their species. We are looters because we were looted. Sorry guys. It's really tough out there!

@Roman stop this and have some conscience. Just look at how noko fio and connection connection mi wofa, mi nipa and so on has destroyed our country. I expect you to do better. There is a reason why you want to run to some of these countries but you want to destroy those places too then what?

On this issue, I agree 99% with Frank, these corrupt students need to face punishment now so they don't become Nana Addo Danquah-like president in Ghana who will destroy a whole nation's economy beyond junk status, be even worse than the Mother Serpent of Corruption in scheming corruption and implementing it.
My 1% deviation from Frank is that these students need to face the punishment in the US where the offence was committed

Stupid tribalist. You have raised your head above the parapet again. I believe you will desist from your 3kruasi tribalism this time as the voters register is being corrupted.
I agree with you though that forged documents to Western countries by our prospective students is a bane and a blot on our integrity. I remember teaching in one of the prestigious universities in central London. I came across some students who claimed to have first class from Legon but they were not able to critically analyse and or evaluate. You ask them to look at Blooms Taxonomy, contact the teaching assistants and other Academic Support staff but they don't see the relevance or they are still not able to progress.
Some universities don't bother with the NARIC document anymore because they know if you do not have those qualifications, it will show during the course.
Having said this, stop your stupid tribalism.

FRANK AGYEMAN - KARIKARI, WHY NOT OWN UP AS GHANAIAN CRIMINAL ADVENTURE AND LEAVE NIGERIANS OUT OF THIS 1 year ago

Why don't you just own up your criminal behavior as Ghanaians, why rope in Nigerians for equalization. Nigerians don't mention Ghanaians as partners in crime and why don't you just accept that your cleaner than though posture is simply a self deceptive posture to portray yourself as a decent society. Nigerians don't ever deny that there misguided elements amongst them that chose to destroy the images of Nigeria but Ghanaians must stand up to accept the facts that there are no Saints & Angels in both countries.

I feel that jail time would be harsh. There should be a deal where they plead guilty to lesser charges and get removed to Ghana since they are out of status.

They thought they were smart by contacting corrupt officers at WAEC and doctoring their results, which has been happening, but they weren't intelligent to know that transcripts are taken from schools and not WAEC. As young as that, they have also started the cheating, corruption and criminality that Ghanaians are noted for. This is an international disgrace and a dent on the image of Ghana. Fools!!!
