We love to support fraudulent politicians (ndc, npp) and attend church making useless noise more than hard work. What a nation?? We are just going backwards.

You see these backward journalists,they are not police who have investigated the accident but quickly said the reckless driver lost control of the car,the guy was just simply speeding and have no respect for human and ran through the crowd,that is the animal behavior we have in Ghana especially under this so called democracy that have made many of us to lose our minds.

We behave as if we are not normal people,a mad man ran his taxi through crowd and we are saying he lost control of the car,didn't he know he was in town to slow down?

That is what happens in a lawless society,accidents are bound to happen but we must know and distinguish between accident and reckless driving which is a norm in Ghana.

That said,people should also know that the roads belong to cars to watch out for such useless drivers who don't care about lives of people.

Corney, whether he lost control or not, What I can say is that Ghanaians never learn. It could be the driver panicked and ran his vehicle through the jubilating crowd.

Why I say that is who in his right state of mind will jubilate on a highway just because his candidate won the election? Only in Africa/Ghana.
In the early '80s, a similar thing happened on the Cape Coast- Accra when a fully loaded Neoplan bus ran into a jubilant crowd in a festive mood, killing and injuring many. When shall we learn?

Frank,that does not warrant running into the crowd,there is nothing like panic if you were not speeding,there is a law that states you don't drive more than 50KM/H in a town,if he were not speeding he would not have killed si ...

Frank,that does not warrant running into the crowd,there is nothing like panic if you were not speeding,there is a law that states you don't drive more than 50KM/H in a town,if he were not speeding he would not have killed six people.

The one that happens in the 80s you mentioned happened in Ekumfi but it was not a jubilant crowd as you stated,it was a funeral procession,I know about the issue very well.

That time you dare not do something like that and get away with it,that guy was sentenced to death and executed by firing squad,it is a story a lot of people know about,you kill people in that barbaric way you don't get away with it,he would have gotten away if it is today's Ghana where everything is politics.

This things of jubilating or celebrating on highways is becoming a serious issue that should be looked at with all seriousness. It is a common sight during Eid festivals to see our Muslims brothers holding massive processions of the Accra - Kasoa highways.

Police should try and give protection to crowd wherever they are. We need to act to protect lives

We should not give power to evil men like Kennedy Agyepong or Nana Addo. They only bring disaster to society.

Jon Mahama needs blood all over the place to present to his idols so as to contest for 2016 presidential elections. Jon Mahama should be put in prison because he intends to slaughter more Ghanaians so as to win the up coming elections. God punish him and all his evil supporters.
