I know punishment by death is something else but that is the law of the land. Indonisia is not the only country which does executions. Australia will fine you even if you were eating carrot on the plane but did not finish it and you go through nothing to declare. Have you any idea how many people are dying because of drugs everywhere on the streets? Those drug dealers or smugglers are living lavish lifestyles at the expense of someone's life. They don't care taking people's life so why should we care about them?

If weak Ghanaian criminal leaders could put their flabby feett down for our nation as Indonesia does, we won't be where (legalized corruption) we are now.

Hypocritical Australia, they pleaded only for their nationals who happened to be the ring leaders. They treat immigrants like drug criminals - how about that?

Everyone is responsible for not taking or taking drugs. It's true that drugs destroys people, but if you REFUSE to use it, it will not destroy you, will it? what happens to RESPONSIBILITY?

Yes, Australia and Brazil are furious and did all they could to save the lives of their nationals, what has Ghana said before and after the execution of the Ghanaian, Martin Anderson?

How many people has the US killed this year alone? hope Ghana can impliment such Laws to kill all drug dealers, considering the damage they are causing to individuals and the country as a whole.
THANK YOU INDONESIA

Papa, your happiness is about the Nigerians among them, your happiness knows no bound Nigerians were killed for drugs as though Ghanaians don't have history of their own drug businesses that spans across the globe. Ametephe's case is too frresh to forget, Tagor, NPP MP's case is there and many more. People like you will remain n pepertual heart acre for envious behaviour, your hatred for Nigerians takes nothing away from them except the pain you'll continue to suffer for the rest of your life.

Ghana's reaction should be a BIG THANK YOU! We respect your laws and your ABILITY TO ENFORCE THEM. We only WISH we had the BALLS to enforce our own laws and DAMN THE BLOW BACK from selfish unpatriotic individuals.

And Indonesia's law tells you there no punks in that nation.
Here in Ghana, Mahama is pleading with criminal public officials to be kind to the national purse that they become too comfortable in stealing simply because no one will dare punish them.

Who told you this so called Martin Anderson is a Ghanaian? This man is a Nigerian using Ghanaians passport to commit crime and brand our country as a drug trafficking people. Already Akufo Addo's relatives are serving various prison terms outside Ghana for same offence with our diplomatic passporst.The man is a Nigerian, and deserved what he recieved. Even if he is a Ghanaian,has he thought of those who are dying as a rersult of his drug activities? It serves them right.If drug has never destroyed your relative(s) before, you wouldn't know how serious it is. I wished same thing was done to Amoateng and the rest.

Well said OKO, That was a Nigerian. Indeed Indonesia only enforced an existing law. Australia should compensate those who died from drugs and prevent her citizens from joining ISIS. More than 2000 Australians are with ISIS

What happened to RESPONSIBILITY? The best way to fight this menace is to punish BOTH USERS and SELLERS alike. Insofar as there are users (DEMAND), I doubt sellers ( SUPPLY) will stop.

A woman cries out, RAPE !, in the UK, and you are in big trouble. Someone cries out, THIEF!, in Nigeria, and you are in deep trouble. Another person cries out , DRUGS!, in some countries, and you are but a LIVING-DEAD. A weapon/means that some criminals may use for a BLACKMAIL attempt, or to enforce their demands.

Ghanaian or Nigerian, does it matter? death penalty should be reserved for convicted serial killers and terrorists who constantly seek to end the lives of others. do the buyers and users get the same punishment as the dealer? cos where there's no demand, there's no supply. it's just wrong. hiding behind Islam, the Koran and that sharia law bullshit to execute people is just wrong. and where the fuck is our African consulates in these regions?

Well is sad to hear someone is being executed, but on the other hand, they implanted that "curse" on themselves. They took the "get rich quick" stance by smuggling drugs from a country that they knew quite well that when caught, the consequence is the death penalty.Why on earth in the first place did they gang up to smuggle grugs?
