It serves the illegal miners right. These miners are very notorious. If you joke with them they kill you. Very bad boys and criminals on drugs. Well done. This is self defence.

This John Mahama said he was coming to correct his mistakes during his campaign, but it seems like he learnt nothing from his first term blunders. He expected the soldiers not to defend themselves and be slaughtered like goats by these Zongo criminals. Let armed robbers attack him in his own residence, and when his security guards shoot an kill them or injure them, then he John Mahama should pay for their burials and medical bills.
Thanks to Akufo Addo's arrogance and ungratefulness to Ashanti Region voters, Ghanaians are stuck with this clueless man as President for 4 years
OUT OF 60 ONLY MANAGED TO GET 7- USELESS GHANA ARMY! 1 year ago

A whole trained Army facing an enemy of 60 thugs you managed to kill only 7. Can this Army protect us from attack. Sack the Chief of Defence Staff.

Minimum 30 thugs should be kissing the ground by now.

I could conjecture that the military were not ready to kill them otherwise all of them would have finished. The Ghana armed forces are capable because I have seen them before. I was in Banjul when Ghana army arrived. I was one by then giving information to Ghana embassy, Dakar office. . So they knew very well that this are civilians and the same time citizens that they supposed to protect, so they don't have to finish them . It is very sad but anytime that you engage in combat with a soldier, it means you are fighting against the whole nation.

To the management of Anglogold Ashanti, do not hesitate, I repeat, do not hesitate to kill any Ghanaian who venture into your concession to mine gold. Yes. If you failed to eliminate these misfits, they would eventually destroy your business, and the same fool would turn around and blame some unseen hands than their pathetic self.

So, my word of caution is, kill any Ghanaian who try to enter into your concession because you have contract with the government of Ghana and not any single individual.

I would not hesitate to say that most of those killed would be foreigners from neighboring countries like Burkina Faso, Mali etc.

This is not massacre because both the military and the hooligans were fully armed. The military protecting the territory of Ghana did not provoke the 8hooligans but rather the hooligans who attacked the Ghana armed forces protecting the gold Mines. The heading should not be massacre. if you say "massacre" meaning attacking a group of unarmed people.

This is too bad and sad.Though the President has ordered investigations to be undertaken into the incident,,I advise him to warn his supporters who are going round chasing workers and now lawful companies from their work-places.Vioence from his supporters is becoming too many after the elections.Again, any persons who by their utterances incited the youth in Obuasi should be arrested and prosecuted to serve as a detterent to others.
