Criminals , like this President, cover up their misdeeds by presenting themselves as good christians. They make the most noise about their religious practice as christians.
The downfall of this country is largely due to this hypocrisy.
Was the bus presented to the church bought with his own money (from his pay check) ?
As 2016 election approaches, how many such gifts is he going to present to churches across the country ?
Why are Ghanaians silent on an issue which affects their pocket books ? My suspicion is that this guy has started stealing d peoples'
money to win an election so he can continue to stay in power. He is not a real christian and d people of Ghana should stand up and call him on this hypocrisy.

This is the same type of arrogance we see in Ghanaian politics. "Do you know me", Do you know who I am", 'I will show you where power lies" etc. They are so rude, very impatient and think they deserve everything in the world but no one else deserve it. It was shown in their negotiation with the doctors. They allocate themselves privileges and when the doctors asked for they same, they are told that is too much, we cant afford. They send the media and they can use cutleries the journalist are no 'big shot' enough to use. They create a middle class for themselves and no one else can be closer to them. This is the arrogance of Ghana politics

You are blaming the wrong person for the accident. Blame should be placed squarely of the back of the bus driver and not the staffer who rented the bus to convey the journalists. Ghanaians have a knack of treating politicians and those in authority as demi-gods. So why fault them for lording over their hapless Ghanaians. The country is rife with unscrupulous people who can't wait to loot and appropriate government funds if placed in a position of authority.

DAILY GARBAGE is a backward newspaper always reporting garbage,the presidency does not feed journalists,they work for their various companies and have to feed themselves,they should tell us where in the world the government feed individual journalists.
Journalists should be partly blame for that accident with the inexperienced driver taking the chunk of the blame,.The journalists should know that 15 passenger van is not meant for 20 passengers and seat belts is very important,if that guy was wearing seat belt he would not have be thrown out of the vehicle and die,when we talk about seat belts people should know that it is not for fun,it is for safety.
As for that driver I wonder how he got that job in the first place,drivers should know that the most dangerous thing to do when they have their tires burst or have flat tire is to slam on the brakes,you rather control the vehicle up until it comes to a stop,if you slam on the brakes the car at that speed the car will definitely rollover.

Couldn't the various media houses have their own vehicles to get their reporters to wherever they are supposed to go get stories? Should journalists be fed at the flagstaff house at the expense of the state and we blast govt over chief of staff budget. In this 21st century couldn't the journalists - print, radio and television, file whatever stories from location but had to rush back to Accra? The poor driver was probably being urged on by the reporters to speed to get to Accra in no time.

Much as we sympathize with the victims and their families for the unfortunate accident, we should also blame the media houses for not providing transport for their staff. The presidential staffer was right when he allegedly said these pressmen are not Presidential staff. Is it not the duty of the various media houses to provide transportation and other logistics for their staff? The fact that one reports from the presidency doesn't mean that it is that office that should provide logistics and other things for such a person. media houses should provide what their staff need to work with and that include transport. By the way can't those reporters file their stories at Ho in this era of technology and advancement? What prevents then from transmitting their stories at Ho to Accra instead of rushing to Accra? I believe that media houses should provide their own transport for their staff instead of relying on the agency they are covering. This can lead to compromise and "being bought" as it were. Let us do things right and stop always pointing fingures at others.

Those media houses do not need the Presidency to sell their papers at all, so if that Dogbey boy and Omane Boamah and Co. feel like the media fraternity should be rented trotro's from Ho main station and bundle them in to their death, whilst they ride in 4WD's for doing nothing, then Omane Boamah and Dogbey might as well write those stories.

Hei, you do not understand presidential press corps at all. It does not mean they are the responsibility of the presidency. They are accredited reporters from various media houses who can get close to the presidency to report on activities. For security reasons, a media house needs to assign a reporter to the presidency if they wish to get easy access.
You failed to respond to the point that CEOs/MDs of media houses ride in 4WDs which they can also place at the disposal of their reporters if they think well of them.
I don't think you ever worked in the media, else you will not say that they do not need presidential stories to sell their media. Who wouldn't wish to report on the president? Whatever the prez does official or private is NEWS!

why does the presidency/taxpayer have to pay transportation for journalists to do their job. These people sell news, so why should they have to be transported, fed, and probably paid to acquire the very product that they need to sell their newspapers. Only in Ghana would this happen.

Very sad to lose a promising life such as this. Yet, the real issue must be tackled. Seat belts save lives.It was in Ghana that I was insulted, teased and called a bragat for wearing my vehicle's seat belts. In fact, one person even told me that I was wearing seat belts as a show off to attract girls. The dead guy would not have been thrown off the truck had he worn his seat belts. I am sure the vehicle was not even equipped with one, but journalists who should know better, sat in the crap anyway.

The President gave the assurance that the government would ensure that the victims received ‘proper’ medical care.Dr Omane Boamah personally telephoned Samuel Nuamah’s wife, Lillian, who is domiciled in the United States to console her on the unfortunate loss and promised her of government’s support. These two statements and the government's inclination of promising support are the reasons Ghanaians' have sense of entitlement. It isn't the government's responsibility to support the widow of the deceased journalist simply for being part of the presidential press corps.
God time is the best, but Ghana drivers need education.
THE SO CALLED PRESIDENTIAL STAFF IN CHARGE OF TRANSPORTATION ARRANGEMENTS SHOULD RESIGH IMMEDIATELY AND ACCEPT THIS TRAGEDY IN SHAME. WAS THE ENGAGEMENT OF THE BUS IMPORTANT THAN THE SAFETY OF THE PRESSMEN? GOD SAVE THIS NATI ...

Good question to be directed at those CEOs and MDs of Media Houses riding in V8s while their reporters go by trotro on assignments!
this stupid story can only come from daily lies: i mean daily guide
Please enforce seat belt laws. Fine offenders or take big bribes from them.
Who cares if mahama is inaugurating a church in ho reporters just becareful following this curse mahama
I think ghanaian journalists have nothing good to write about.They are treating the death of the late Nuamah as if it is of national importance.They will soon tell the nation that he deserves a state burial.
Such a tragic waste of a promising life.
Apparent he wasn't wearing a seatbelt, and an inexperienced driver who should not have applied his brakes.
But we say this in hindsight.
May his soul Rest in Peace
