We have too many problems in Africa and we must not add any more self- inflicted wounds. We need to progress in peace and stop these religious conflicts
Why will a group that purports to be a positive one name itself Boko Haram? Do the Chiefs know what Boko Haram means?

Thank you, Mr. Greenstreet, you spoke what is in the heart of Ghanaians. Everyone in this world knows NDC hates the truth and would like to hear lies because they are liers. If NDC is really truthful to thems ...

Disband the group 'sofort', for, that is how the boko haram in Nigeria was formed. No, do not listen to the so called chiefs. THey were jubilating when the women were being whipped. Some chiefs indeed.
IF THEY HAVE GOOD INTENTIONS, WHY CHOOSE THAT NOTORIOUS NAME? OF ALL THE NAMES IN THE WORLD, EG. WATCH GROUP ETC, WHY BOKO HARAM? HMMM NANA'S FREE SHS WOULD HAVE SOLVED THIS.
Don't forget that Pepeni's lawless equilibrium could be traced way back to JAKPA the lawless worrior. But I hope they would understand not the laws from Gonja, but the laws of the land Ama Ghana. Zongo Chiefs and Zongo Boys, ...

YOUTH READY FOR 2016WAR
In 2012, we respected Nana Addo statement after the supreme court verdict. But this time round 2016, it will be a different story if those OTUMFUO AND NDC DARES
If something is bad you get rid of it. Everybody or group is under the police at all times so what new supervision is needed? The group is bad, so you admit it and get rid of it.
Do we really have the head to learn. How does these things starts our part of the world, it's always from the positive before it gets nasty. Just sit down there and rationalise, it will consume you first.
Under no circumstances must a vigilante group be allowed to exist in any community. Ghana is not a failed state and there are perfectly legitimate institutions that can be mandated with the tasks of getting children to school ...

Elijah, well said. I hope Mahama and all those running Ghana read your comment
Get rid of them as quickly as possible. More Police Stations should be opened in the area before we are consumed.
Ghana police is at its compromise best again chieftaincy has outlived its usefulness in Ghana and therefore anti progress let's do away with it Don't listen to this chief go ahead Ghana police and ban this group
are these hausa bastards members of the GHANA HOUSE OF CHIEFS?.....they can call themselves that but the fact is they are not ROYAL CHIEFS....FOR WHO ENSTOOLED THEM AS CHIEFS ON AKAN lands?

Am shocked! nothing good will come out of group s like this.I think idiots like those chiefs supporting this group sud be hanged! GH police Aaaaaaahhh ,so useless
Who are you? Read the report again and see if there have been arrests!!
It starts with flogging Muslims for patronizing Christian businesses and then it escalates to something much bigger than that. Destool the Chief, I wish we could arrest his mind for stupidity.
these vagabond zongo "kaakaamotoku" chiefs are not legitimate to start with. They live on someones's land and claim right of a chief>>>>tweaaaaaaaaa...... who made them chiefs?
Anything big start small,ja to wontumi ny3 fii , we must do something this chief no nothing about boko haram you must explain to him before he come out and disgrace himself.like this again
Listen to a STUPID CHIEF! support the group rather than disband it. Sometimes i wonder whether this chieftacy thing is really relevant to the modern age. Somebody's forefather leads a village war several hundreds of years ago ...

Even the police should not allow the formation of any vigilante group in that community again---they have a hidden bad intention, I can smell that....
The chief is not above the law and he must be taken in for questioning about the flogging. Such vigilantism should not be encouraged in our young democracy. Citizens must be encourage to use the police.
Whether this group has any ties with the Nigerian menace or not this name should be banned in Ghana. Circa a decade and half ago a similar vigilante group started harassing villagers in the north eastern part of Nigeria. Tha ...

The decision of the Chief to allow the said group to operate is the right decision. They must be allowed to register as an NGO or any acceptable organ so that they can be watched with an eagle eye. Banding them will push them ...

Well spoken commander!may u live long to continue your good works.
Some of these Chiefs are the idiots. We in Ghana appear to copy any foolishness that comes out of Nigeria. Keep encouraging these idiots. You will regret it one day
Book haram at ofoasi hahaha
those fools should b arrested along with the chiefs that are supporting it period.
I hope the government will take serious action and uproot this group out fast before it is too late. this is how the Nigeria one started slowly and became a nuisance. A stitch in time saves nine
Notorious chiefs
This group should be diabanded since it can grow and finally turn into such a notorious group in Nigeria.
This is how it starts. First as a vigilante group then they metamorphose into a group of armed religious fanatics. Ghana is a secular state where the rule of law prevails. Our security forces should be firm and decisive and u ...
