That's peanuts to the US. It is left for Ghana to also show some remorse with the some $5,000 expenses Ghana will shoulder. The woman will return with thousands of donations that she will receive from Americans that will not be made public, easily just under a million.

You care about one life needless lost in the USA but don’t care about those Ghanaians being killed in Ghana by Ghanaian paid security agents.

I hope this time Ablakwa can furnish Ghanaians with. All expenses.

Why should that be the responsibility of the Government and not the boy's father? This is a populist decision although we all sympathize with the family for what had happened. The Government had also financed the repatriation cost of Ghanaians deported from South Africa. My question here is where lies the individuals responsibility? I can understand if the Government foots the bills for our diplomats and their families who are representing the country abroad but citizens who have decided to leave the country on their own should finance whatever costs they may incure while living abroad.

I sympathise with the mother and the family, but if government wants to help, it should solicit funds from the private sector. The sponsorship should not be from government funds. Does this mean if anybody's child gets shot in the US, government will buy a return ticket for the person's mother or father to attend the funeral?

@Useless Ho Airport. I can not agree with you more. Well said. Your question is very relevant. You see, we live in a Polychronic society where offering favor, gifts and scratching each other's back is admired and applauded. This is where we differ from the Advanced Industrialized Countries (AIC). In the AIC there is a strict adherence to the law and decisions to utilize public funds are not taken based on emotions but rather on what the law says. Not long ago John Mahama bought luxurious and very expensive V8 cars as a gift to retired army officers (see Ghanaweb of 3rd August 2026). Where did the money come from?

Why will the government of Ghana fund the full cost of Kavits Frimpong? This is another case of frivolous government spending. Celebrities in the US including Rhianna, Jay-Z, Beyoncé and Others have contributed more than $700,000 for the expenses of the funeral. For heavens sake, don’t waste any money. Let Javits’ father use all the money he has collected to help Javits’ mother.

Et tu Ablakwah, is this the first time a Ghanaian has been unjustifiably killed in a foreign country? I bet the cost of this trip is going to be another 49 million Ghana cedis.
