All this but we waste time in court over a lost course . What a sad state of priorities
Please read my comment on earlier news report on this disturbing disaster and do some deep thinking and not being naive.
"DARK FORCES" abound.
I HOPE SOME ONE WILL NOT TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THIS TRAGEDY TO GO AND WASTE MONEY ON AN 'UNKNOWN GHANAIAN' WE KNOW THE POLITICIANS WHO THEMSELVES ARE DIRECTLY RESPONSIBLE FOR THE TRAGEDY OF THESE YOUNG PEOPLE.
WE NEED ACCOUNTABILITY N TRANSPARENCY IN GOVT!
WE NEED CORRUPTION COURTS IN GH NOW!
WHY DID MAHAMA GIVE AGGUDEY A PRESIDENTIAL PARDON? FOR WHAT? FOR HIM TO SAVE FACE AND NOT BE DISGRACED?
THIS FOOL WAS SPENDING MONEY THAT ...

Kwasiafo. All they know is bomb throwing, litigation, stow waying, stealing and drug trafficking. Nation-wreckers. Kuffour and Nana Addo are useless.
You are back with your insults? Even your first president, Nkrumah stowed away for greener pastures.
He was your first president too. I cry for Ghana MAN.
FEELING OF HOPELESSNESS, HELPLESSNESS AND DESPONDENCY UNDER CORRUPT AND INCOMPETENT NDC, IS DRIVING OUR YOUTH TO EMBARK ON DANGEROUS ADVENTURES. VERY PATHETIC INDEED!!!
All to find a greener pasture for our
lives turned to otherwise may their
souls RIP.
All these is due to population over
flow,tenegers give birth to Children
no father no jobs for them,girls go
into prostitution,age about 11 years
chasing their living standard.Now the
Government want to know what?Like th ...

All African leaders right from Nkrumah have made our countries not good to lve in so we all take foolish risks to leave and go to be slaves to whiteman again. And there appears to be no end to this.

Was there a civil war looming when this happened in K4 time?
You have made a funny point. There is no need for a civil war for dictatorship. You might be the only stranger in Jerusalem who does not know that Yahyah Jammeh is a dictator. Do the people in Gambia even have freedom of spee ...

Really it is very unfortunate and sad that Ghanaian lives have been lost in this boat mishap. The bottom line is majority of those taking such risks could hardly write their names let alone fill simple forms.
This explains how hard to have affordable education at OGYAKROM. They take those risks because of hardship. Who would want to walk across the Sahara at over hundred degrees temperature. Many will not go if conditions at home ...

EBO,YOUR NAME SHOWS THE TYPE OF WERK YOU WILL DO WHEN YOU HAPPEN TO BE IN EUROPE.HOMO.ALMOST 100 PROCENT OF FANTES ARE HOMOS.MOST OF THEM HAVE PHD IN HOMOLOGY.
MY FRIEND, HOW CAN A CHINESE, LEBANESE,INDIANNS AND EVEN LIBERIANS COME TO GHANA AND BE WORTHY?.THE GOVERNMENT CAN NOT HOLD YOUR PENIS TO PEE.
These treacherous journey and its inhumane death are avoidable but as far as our leaders are on the "war path" to loot and share whatever money that goes into the treasury, Ghanaians will never stop attempting these dangerous ...

Make informed and objective analysis, please. Do not talk without facts.

It goes without saying . But everytime you say it they say Nkrumah was a dictator and a communist. Now they cannot make the so called free enterprise of theirs work either
Kojo, so you do not still accept that Nkrumah was a dictator and had communist ideas. How was it that he had no Vice Prez? Even people like Gbedema who were his cronies were afraid of him. If people could be thrown into jail ...

A benevolent dictator is better than a liberal democrat.
Your are very intelligent with a sensible comments we need people like you here,you are either a terrorist or a dictator if you don't kowtow to western ideology,democracy is corrupt and misleading
I prefer my BRODEDWO, AKPLE, KENKEY AND FUFU in freedom than cakes with slaps. Name one dictator you know in Africa that was or still is BENEVOLENT.
Whatever that dictator did for Ghana can still be seen today,a living witness that his vision was second to none
Including arbitrary arrests and false imprisonments. Yes, a prez without a vice who was feared by even his ministers. Ask Gbedemah.
what will you achieve?
NO BODY EATS FREEDOM. NKRUMAH WAS TURNED INTO A BENEVOLENT DICTATOR BY THE 'MATE MEHO'. THEY WANTED HIM DEAD SO THAT THEY CAN TAKE OVER THE COUNTRY. If THEY HAD THEIR OWN WAY THE HYDRO DAM, TEMA TOWNSHIP AND A HOST OF PROJECT ...

The "DARK FORCES" abound.
These are the unfortunate casualties of the poverty and joblessness facing ghanaians at home.The politicians need to wake up to put in place measures to create jobs and fight poverty.
This is hard time critical to deal with it. Ghanaian problems has become so many that the people who are leading us don´t know exactly what to do, because they are just leading us, but it dosen´t reflect our interest, only ...
