They shouldn't have given them the ammunitions back. They should have confiscated them to show them such actions have consequences. It was intentional. Such cross boarder incursions are always a precursor for something big to happen. They were training for something. Ghanaian officials just betrayed the country by showing weakness.

This is the question

Are u sleeping my dude? Wake up

We lived in a nation whereby poor people are forced to pay tax to the government while’s rich and connected politicians with families pays nothing!

The president is giving free accommodation, free petrol, free air condition, free per diem just as all our politicians and do u know where all these FREEBIES comes from?

It comes from me and u!

It comes from the poor KAYAYO in tamale who struggles to eat but is forced to pay taxes to a government that does nothing for him or her!

Are u for free

When Sam George went to the vetting committee and was asked how he takes care of himself, he said that, his wife takes cared of him!

And this should tell u the mindset of our politicians!

Big people in Ghana pay no taxes!

So don’t asked me how much taxes do I pay!

Am not living in Ghana but my remittance to my family forms a huge chunk of the national revenue but it ends up in some filthy pockets of some stupid Ndc or npp politicians!!

Is not about taxes my friend!

Paying tax is good but is how the tax are used that should concerned u!

In western nations, u know ur taxes are valuable because its been used to take care of u and ur community unlike Ghana where the likes of Jm, nana addo and co ll used all these taxes on themselves and families!

This is the core questions

HASTY ILL-JUDGED DECISIONS CAN LEAD TO CATASTROPHE , BUT A COOL, REFLECTIVE APPROACH CAN AVOID MISUNDERSTANDINGS AND AVERT DISASTER.
A classic example of how to avoid terrible misunderstandings and disaster is seen in the Holy Scriptures in the book of Joshua Chapter 22.
In this story some people saw the Eastern Israelite tribe soldiers putting up a huge alter near the river Jordan on the Western bank and misinterpreted it to mean that the Eastern Israelite tribes (the Reubenites, the Gadites and the half-tribe of Manasseh who lived in the Eastern side of the river Jordan) had just committed a grievous sin. Those acquainted with their scriptures will recall that the children of Israel were forbidden to have a place of worship other than wherever the presence of God (signified by the physical Ark which on this occasion appears to have been Shechem) was. The rest of the ancient Israelite tribes were ready to go to war against their brothers on the East side of the Jordan river (which formed a natural boundary between the brother nations) but fortunately the leaders of Israel had the wisdom and maturity to investigate the matter by sending a delegation to the Eastern tribes to find out what was going on. IT TURNED OUT TO BE NOTHING MORE THAN A TERRIBLE MISUNDERSTANDING. Everybody went home relieved and happy.
Those interested can read about the whole saga in Joshua Chapter 22.

Burkina Faso is a friendly neighbour state. President Mahama handled this affair with great aplomb. We must be very careful not to play into the hands of external entities who would love to see conflict between our great brother nations so that they can exploit our divisions to our own hurt and disadvantage.
THANK GOD THAT OUR PRESIDENT ACTED WITH COOLNESS DISCERNMENT AND MATURITY.
Our continued peace and prosperity will be to a large extent determined by the way our leaders conduct themselves and handles issues such as this one. This is why it is extremely important for the President to be bathed CONSTANTLY in our prayers so that God Almighty orders their steps and guides them.

[ESV Bible]
1 Timothy 2:1-2: First of all, then, I urge that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for all people, 2 for kings and all who are in high positions, that we may lead a peaceful and quiet life, godly and dignified in every way.

Proverbs 21:1 The king's heart is a stream of water in the hand of the Lord; he turns it wherever he will.

and Romans 13 also supports the importance of good leadership and the obligation of all citizens who want to live in peace to be law abiding.

Start Early, Start Now - Train for better daily income this year. Smartphone repair & accessories is one of the few skills that still pays daily, even in hard times. Phones break every day. People fix them the same day, that's money changing hands fast. Many unemployed people, even those with jobs — are learning this skill quietly to support themselves, or gifting the book to train siblings, relatives, or community youths. Many are buying copies to empower others this season, instead of giving other gifts that finish. GET Chukky Oparandu’s guide - it breaks it down clearly for beginners: repairs, flashing, accessories sales — the skill opens doors into IT careers. No big capital. Just a skill you earn from once you apply it. If you’re planning ahead for 2026, this is one move people are already making.

If trouble breaks out between Ghana and Burkina Faso as they used to say many many centuries ago in Latin “Cui Bono”? (or who stands to gain?) Certainly, neither Ghana nor Burkina Faso stand to benefit in any way if hostilities were to break out between the two neighbouring states. No country especially countries like ours want to divert scarce vital resources to fund conflict and hostilities which once started can last for decades!
We all want peace within our country, and we want to dwell in peace with all our neighbours, including the fish in the sea along our coast!

Ghana agrees to accept West Africans deported from US

“Ghana has become the latest country to accept people deported from the US as part of President Donald Trump's crackdown on illegal immigration.

President John Mahama said nationals from various West African countries would now be taken in following a bilateral agreement with the US. He said 14 had already arrived.

He cited the regional bloc Ecowas's free movement protocol that allows citizens of member states to enter and reside in other West African countries without a visa for up to 90 days.

Last month, the US deported seven migrants to Rwanda while in July, five were sent to Eswatini and eight others to South Sudan.

The 14 people already deported to Ghana include "several" Nigerians and a Gambian, the president said. He did not specify the total number of deportees the country would take.

He said Ghana had already facilitated the return of the Nigerians to their country by bus while the Gambian was still being assisted to return home.

"We were approached by the US to accept third-party nationals who were being removed from the US. And we agreed with them that West African nationals were acceptable," Mahama said.

"All our fellow West African nationals don't need visas to come to our country," he added.

Mahma described Ghana-US relations as a "tightening situation", citing the hiked US tariffs on Ghanaian goods and visa restrictions on its nationals. He however said relations remained positive.

The Trump administration has approached a number of African countries to accept deportees as part of its push to deter immigration.

Some of those deported have been citizens of countries such as Jamaica, Vietnam and Laos, with rights groups arguing that this violated their basic rights.
Some countries have pushed back against the deportation strategy.

Nigeria, which has been a vocal opponent, has previously said it would not bow to pressure to accept third-country migrants from the US”

Listen to this JOHN of a man!

This was in September when he said that, NO FELLOW WEST AFRICAN nationals needs a VISA to come to Ghana”

Waaaaa see this man

At the time that, the economist has warned Ghana of jihadist activities near our borders, this man is SHOWBOATING all over the fucking place like Ghana is so developed to contained these terrorists!

The man is ridiculous but I don’t blamed him but u blamed the stupid Ghanaians who have no BRAIN to see how our nation is been governed by these greedy, do nothing politicians and always KISSING their stinking asses!

We will show Ghanaians who ruled this nation

“ In December 2025, a video circulated online in which a person described as a "Fulani leader" or representative issued a "big warning" to Ghana, suggesting that the failure to address the marginalization of the Fulani community could lead to insecurity similar to that seen in the Sahel region.

The individual, identified in some reports as Hajibari, stated that the Fulani community would decide who rules the country, and that they are "no more the yesterday's Fulanis".

This warning was framed as a security issue that the government needed to address.

Context of the Threat:

Marginalization Concerns:

The video highlighted long-standing issues of discrimination and the "Fulani menace" or farmer-herder conflicts in Ghana. President Mahama has previously stated that "Being Fulani, Hausa does not disqualify one from being a Ghanaian" and pledged to address the conflict permanently.

Political Response:

The comments were made in the context of partisan politics, with the speaker suggesting that many Fulanis who had previously supported the NDC were converting to the NPP due to specific issues.

Police Investigation:

The Ghana Police Service has been actively investigating and arresting individuals for making threats against President Mahama and other government officials via social media in recent months. Two individuals were arrested in August 2025 for a separate threatening TikTok video, and another was jailed in September 2025 for similar threats.

The recent incident involving the "Fulani leader" is part of a broader pattern of online threats against Ghanaian public figures that law enforcement is currently addressing”

A Fulani so called leader has threatened the security of our nation such that, he even went on to issued a dared warning to all Ghanaians that, THEY AINT YESTERDAY FULANIS, which’s a big threat such that, they are sophisticated now and can attacked the nation probably with their increasing numbers and the national security is quiet on this!

Stupid people!

The coward President has unleashed his national security apparatus on Ghanaians such as EBO NOAH who are harmless whiles foreigners get a pass in this nation

But I don’t even blamed this so called JM MAN but the senseless Ghanaian with an IQ like chicken nuggets hyping these foolish elites who goes to toilet with security details and hence don’t give a shit about them

Is the fucking idiots ll lined up and chant JM JM whiles these politicians does nothing for them!

When was the last time any GHANAIAN ARTIST had a picture with TINUBU?

U ll never ever see any GHANAIAN influencer etc taking a pic with Nigerian elites but our SUCKER PRESIDENT sometimes behaving like a FUCKING KID ll be in the company of Nigerians and now wonder an Igbo man can sit in our nation and called us UNCULTURED!

Uncultured meaning every Ghanaian including the president and his family are like ANIMALS and he’s still fucking living here!

That stupid, slow and bleaching Igbo bastard called Ghanaians UNCULTURED, not some Ghanaians but all Ghanaians uncultured and nothing has happened to him

He’s even been protected by the same SILLY PRESIDENT who he referred to as UNCULTURED!

Waaaaaaaaa look!

Can any Ghanaian lived in Nigeria and called Nigerians uncultured?

His fucking head ll be in Ghana but looked at our elites, foolish people who don’t give a about the ordinary Ghanaian

But can we blamed these politicians, we can’t because the ordinary Ghanaian can’t think for himself!

There is an inherent plan to destabilise ghana using war- be it genocidal or religious wars. Ghana needs to wake up , as a Christian country surrounded on all sides by Muslim countries this is how it starts. Everywhere Muslims go, the blueprint is the same. When they are small, it’s a religion of peace. When level with the ruling country’s population or more than the ruling country, their book teaches them to enforce their law, rape and kill and be rewarded in heaven. Guaranteed that these people crossing the border here are Muslims. What a weak response by a so called sovereign country. Releasing them on your soil?!

Instead of praising and encouraging the villagers with little knowledge about security matters. Just look at the comments people are posting.Even to have an idea or knowledge to communicate the situation to the security apparatus is a plus and needs to be encouraged by the Government and the security agencies in the country, and also educate people the way and manner to handle situations like this. Good job done .

You fool! Next time an armed robber enters your house and gives you an excuse that he lost his way. Give him lunch and let him on his way

There's more questions than answers. Their excuse is flimsy and I don't why Ghana officials released them easily. No one knows what would have happened if the villagers had not seen them and whom were they taken position to engage in exchange of fire?
