Does a PROPHET need a spokesman to speak to God?
Why don't you pray yourself, if you believe in God

The driver was definitely sleeping behind the wheel. Too many hours of non-stop driving. May be he was even drunk as well. It is high time solid measures were taking to stop these unnecessary avoidable accidents. Just imagine if the bus was fully loaded ? How many innocent lives would have been lost.

Hahahaha. Who was driving the YUTONG(Ghana) bus? Was it Mahama who ran the YUTUNG bus (Ghana) into the ditch? Mahama should drive Ghana carefully and not ran into a ditch.

...... where did the bus fall into that ditch ? Also, the bus is standing straight up. You would think it would have landed on its side after the fall, but it didn't. A little strange to me.

If you want to test it, strap yourself to a chair and let someone drop you from 15 feet height. By the time they reach you, you will be shorter than you used to be.

Is that the real picture of the bus in the ditch at 1.30a? the atmosphere doesn't look to me that its 1.30am.
our prayers for the one who lost his/her life and speedily recovery for those injured.

I think what Mr Asante was trying to tell you, albeit in a deservedly harsh manner, is that no one said/wrote that the picture was taken at 1:30 am.

God doesn't hate blacks as we think Rather opposite. If we struggle like others to put food on the table there wont be any Ghanaian alive today. In other countries I can't see how they survive during winter times. It is our behaviour our thinking and other factors that have put us where we are. To put it plainly it is Bribery & Corruption. These have led to lies and cheats. Nothing in Ghana is done right. You can but ANYTHING with MONEY - women, cars, houses, judges,police, army, pastors, churches, MPs, minister and even the president.

PASTORS SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED TO PREACH ON BUSES. THE FOOLISH PASTOR ON THE BUS ASKED THEM TO CLOSE THEIR EYES FOR PRAYERS AND THE STUPID GUY OBLIGED HURTING AND KILLING INNOCENT PEOPLE. USELESS!!!

So how about testing the driver for blood alcohol, eh? How about investigating skid marks for speed eh? How about interrogating eye-witnesses eh?

God help Ghana because the law is an ass! And a complete jackass!
