The problem is not the arrest. Will they be jailed if they're found guilty? That is what is worth mulling over.
These guys know the laws in Ghana are a kind of "trompe-oeil", a toothLESS tool. NO one gets jailed in Ghana except fish and tomatoes thieves.
They are just scape-goats, nothing will happend to them. The real thieves are sitting somewhere enjoying themselves.
NIGERIA WILL KEEP THE AFCON CUP FOR THE NEXT SEVEN YEARS BEFORE GHANA EVER THINK OF SMELLING IT. WITH YOUR JUJU OR NO JUJU, WE HAVE THE POWER OF HOLY GHOST ON OUR SIDE, AND JESUS IS OUR KEEPER...AND HE WILL KEEP THE AFCON CUP ...

HIM AND HIS GENERATIONS WILL NEVER KNOW PEACE TILL THY KINGDOM COME.....Amen
what and who the rats are you referring to . Speak plainly or shut up
It depends on where you stand and which mirror you are looking through. As a businessman under NPP I met my nemesis for being known as an NDC admirer.
You see!? What you have writen, it makes sense because no one can organise such a logistic challenge. Never two people alone, but you are going to have people who will defend the government as it is not responsible for the tr ...

THAT ARE STEALING GHANA GOLD FROM THE NATIONAL TRESURY. OUR GOLD IS IN TURKY AND IRAN 2 TERRORIST STATES THAT MAHAMA CLAIM SHULD HAVE VERY CLOSE TIES TO GHANA
This will not also go anywhere, just like the drugs that turned into baking powder and the Woyomi case. What a corrupt country!
You said it right. What was done to Woyome with his daylight robbery of the nationN
What a country! And we think we are intelligent!
How can we move forward when the same corrupt thieves remain in office?
That's hardly the only headache.
Substitute those in office with any other group picked up in random anywhere in Ghana and the scandals WILL continue with amplitude. I can assure you it will not stop. Do you know why? Mea ...

PROBABLY AND GIVEN SENTENCES TO SERVE. BUT IF THEY KEEP THEIR MOUTHS SHUT, THEY WILL BE GIVEN PRESIDENTIAL PARDON BY MAHAMA AND BE FREE TO STEAL AGAIN. REMEMBER SEPA-YANKEY AND PEPRAH?

STOP TURNING GHANA INTO A LAWLESS COUNTRY.

NDC is behind this they are the real theives God will judge them one by one
Truth.
The only way to stop the rampant corruption in our public sector is by imposing the death penalty for all those found guilty of corruption.
The ruling class of both party are weak and corrupt and inept and have no new ideas. No hope for us until that changes.
JOHN MAHAMA,PLEASE SPEAK THE TRUTH AND TELL THE COUNTRY WHAT YOU KNOW ABOUT IT.
MAHAMA WE DONT WANT THE GOLD THAT BELONG TO GHANA TRESURY TO BE GIVIN TO TERRORIST COUNTRYS LIKE IRAN AND TURKY ,RETERN THE STOLAN GOLD NOW

No doubt somebody in the govt should know something about this.
Govt should be run by religious heads like Presbyterian,Methodist and Romans the oldest churches in Ghana.Ghana will better off than the crooks politicians.
So where are Peter Bedzrah and Frederick Kojo Essumang of Omanye Gold Mining, the alleged suppliers of the gold consignment to Vahid Moradi Moghaddam of Iran?
Good question, wonders shall never cease...
Just wait a little and the case will be forgotten. There is enough money in this to silence everyone. Give me my share, Case finish. Ghana is rotten beyond redemption.
