They are all the same. He is breathing his freedom whilst the poor is still on remand weak and sick for over decades. Just creating illusion that they are fighting corruption when in fact these actors eat from the same pot only in darkness. It does not matter what political, ethnic or religious affiliation poor Ghana is for them to cripple, loot and celebrate reinvesting in safe heaven. Have we forgotten example exhausted oil exploration investment in Ghana? Or may be the grip on the shameful declining industry by state capturers sent them to Guyana. Guyana is also where Ghana’s stolen money have been diverted. God help the future general from enslavement.

10/10, that's the correct answer for ten points. KSM is a man of straw and this is proof of that!

They will steal and rich men will bail them free. That is the country we live in. Whether NDC or NPP they are the same.

Ghana is a useless and hopeless country! No one is willing to fight against corruption. The citizens are cowards who are afraid to deal with criminals like Ato Essien and the politicians are just stupid.

Donald Trump is doing right by sending us back to our sh***thole countries where there are no rule of law and where people can loot the state with no repercussions.

Justice for sale!! Agradaa better apply for bail and come out to continue business as usual.Absurd indeed.See the face of the "sick" man Ato Essien attending business gatherings in suit and tie! Can such a thing happen in even capitalist America of all places? Or would not Didi be out on bail to continue his freak parties? After all he can afford a 10 million dollar bail. And Agradaa too can afford some.Nsawam should be decongested with only the goat and plantain thieves left there to rot since they have no one to bail them out.Out 90 million cedis that Ato Essien was supposed yo pay to the state,he eventually ended paying on 39 million.Now so swift,he is out when he does not have the remaining 51 million to pay but can afford 100 million bail.Dven on animal farm,this will be considered crazy

So he has gone to jail for 2 years for 51 million cedis theft, but goat thieves are given 10 years? Shame on you all, from the judiciary to the executive that enabled us.

Politicians have made corruption looks attractive and juicy to be involved in. What kind of law is this, that someone who has failed the terms of payment plan by the court and put in jail be released on ground of bail ? Even if he had filed for appeal, he would still be in jail and come to court from there. I don't get it. if my memory serves me right almost all those jailed on corruption or causing financial loss to the state didn't serve all the years they were convicted. Some of them serve their terms on hospital bed and then they are released on compassionate grounds. Corruption will continue to be sweet in Ghana bcos after all wetin. The punishment doesn't bite enough. We are joking with corruption as we are doing now with galamsey fight.

Ghana is a country where criminals are accorded respect. Look at the photograph. He was given a place to sit in the front row among other dignitaries.
