Soooo true, William. You are very right! Assembly men throughout Ghana needs body guard too, and the black star players and ...oh, all ghanaians needs body guards too. So damn it!!! Why dont they do their work well so that the economy will be better and no one will think of robbing anyone???

Iam glad MPs are now the gargets of armed robbers instead of the poor citizens. Go for them, Robbers, and Oh dont forget to beat them too for stealing from ghanaians after robbing them. Foolish dreaming "MPs... Body guards my foot! Hire one yourself and pay them well to help in job creation. Kwasiafour!!!

The humble school teacher or the nurse is expose to the same risks,money does not grow on trees in Ghana or for that matter,anywhere in the world.Ghanian politicians personify the double standards employed by politicians who are oblivious to the daily travails of their fellow citizens.Their work as politicians is to legislate,strenghten and make current security institutions work for everybody,not just for politicians.The chickens are coming home to roost!The hungry,the deprived and the disenfrachised cant stand by and watch when politicians continue to enjoy the lifestyles of the rich and famous in basketcase Ghana!

Thank you Ada Boy.

By the way, what is the work of MPs? Part of their job includes making the country a safe place for all. So if they are asking for body guards, how does an ordinary Ghanaian protect himself or herself? Who will give them body guards too?

By the way, what does A.K. Agbesi think by-elections are for? If they die, all we will do is to hold a by-election to replace them. After all, all-die-be-die!

No body guards for any MP!

If Government dares and gives Body Guards to these MPs, it should be prepared to give Body Guards to all Executive members of all offices. This is complete rubbish. In which developed world do MPs get Body Guards? In these developed countries there is money to pay Body Guards but Body Guards are not provided. Why Ghana? So these MPs fear death?
This is what happened when you got into Parliament and the first thing you did was to increase your salaries by about 70% When others are asking for an increment of salaries you find them to be NPP manipulated agenda. Government should be wary of this call. Or else.....

...Exchange To Save Your Punk-Ass"

MPs can't get it both ways. Give us more money, more benefits, etc., etc., and on top of that SECURITY around the clock?? HOW THE HELL DO WE PAY FOR THAT, NEGRO??

$$ Suggestion: The MPs should give up 10-15% of their salaries and benefits in exchange for government paid security. Who the hell do these MPs think they are? Many people are ROBBED day and night in Ghana and they don't call for government security, but they’re Ghanaians and humans, too. The Armed robbers robbed the MP NOT because of the work he does, but because they thought he had some money and other properties they could steal—PERIOD—and stop the other nonsense!!

You have several MPs who have NEVER opened their mouths in parliament, since they got there, but we're paying for them—and getting nothing back—and your ass is asking the Ghanaian taxpayer to also provide your PUNK-ASS with security—while some schools are conducted under Nim Trees??

Prez Mahama and Co, don't fall for this wasteful request & trap, because Ghana can't afford it.

I wonder why we need these many ill-educated folks in parliament and then paying them to do nothing. And on top that this man wants security. I'm afraid the state has no money for that nonsense. If anything them not having a security is a check for a common person to make sure that their needs are attended to by these bunch of foolish men.

WHAT A CHEEK! WHERE IN THE WORLD DO LEGISLATORS HAVE BODYGUARDS. IN A DEVELOPED COUNTRY LIKE BRITAIN, MPS TRAVEL ON PUBLIC TRANSPORT. IF THESE PEOPLE DO NOT WANT TO BE MPS, THERE IS A LONG QUEUE. IF THEY MAKE GOOD LAWS,EVERYBODY WILL BENEFIT, SO THEY SHOULD CONCENTRATE ON WHY THEY ARE THERE. IN THE US, A FEMALE DEMOCRAT LEGISLATOR WAS PARALYSED,DID THE GOVERNMENT GIVE ALL THE LEGISLATORS BODYGUARDS? THIS IS A TEST FOR MAHAMA GOVERNMENT TO SEE IF THEY WILL GIVE IN TO ANY UNTENABLE DEMAND FROM MPS. IF THEY DO, IT WILL BE FREE FOR ALL. THE ASSEMBLY MEN WILL BE NEXT.

You have stolen all the country's money and still asking for more. Use some of your ill gotten wealth to hire your own body guards. In this case you will also be creating employment for others. RUBBISH.
