Any govt or system that refuses to acknowledge or respect the fact that Ghana belongs to the Akans is by the hand of God doomed to fail. This is evident from the bond of !
1844 and agreements of 1871 are they are the basis and our Magna carta. NDC has a foreign oppression govt in which the stakeholders or true intelligentsia of the Akans do not participate or are excluded but rather insulted , humiliated and wantonly abused. Like all oppressive govts when they see their days are number switch from their pro islamic affinities and all of a sudden remember the America are allies of brothers like we witnessed with Qaddafi, Saddam Hussein and the eastern European criminal regimes of Ceausescu in Romania. Today we have a govt in which the cardinal inner cabinet ministers such as interior , defense , finance are all non Akans . This ndc promotes the exultation of minorities and preys on the divide and rule tactics that lead only to the death of our economy. Its very interesting the posture of this ndc mafia, they know they have lost but still clutch to straws of false hope. The world confirms this bloated register , unheard of wanton looting , corruption and hegemony/tribalism of pepeni/ayigbe but they instead of resigning collectively choose to annoy us with more propaganda lies. They waste their money buying millions of bullets and arms but fail to realse even with 500 atomic bombs they will lose as war is about the awareness of the people and state of mind of the defending majority. We salute the chiefs , politicians , bishops who are not afraid to stand up for justice and respect to the market women who reject gifts of treachery. We have won , and the stakeholders of our friendly nations know the truth so we will not waste our time with fake diplomats or those who dont known what time it is. We show thanks to the British and Germans for confirming the bloated register and other atrocities of corruption we witness .

Frustration and anger make one tend to be egocentric or show ethnicity or tribalism. As Kumasi-born,I know robbery in Kumasi is carried out openly on large scale by non-Ashanti/Akan Ghanaians. Name it. Criminal chiefs(Yarrow Baba), criminal-bases (Mosi-Zongo) in Kumasi have haunted the city-dwellers since Guggisberg to present time. WHY? Because lazy ones from other tribes and border-countries exploit the mildness of hard-working people in Kumasi/Ashanti. One would tend to discuss this observation as tribalistic but dishonest, work-shy life associated with some tribes breeds segregation or so called pronounced 'tribalism'. If we learn to work hard to become rich as Kumasi people do with 'dog-chains' and not go by easy way of pilfering/taxes in govt Offices or steal with arms as others do in Kumasi/Ashanti Agogo, there would be no anger and misuse of words by Kumasi/Ashanti residents to become a national issue. period. Men, Wise up and educate or employ the robbers of your tribe and not Kumasi/Ashanti victims of crime who voice out their feelings.

Well nobody cares to call them to question. Criminals can rob at will, so will they be killed without fear of the law. Today hard working Ghanaians are afraid to create decent environment to rest their stressed out minds and bodies. They are not criminals, but they have to build houses that look like prisons to live in for protection. There are two real dogs, two hand guns, two shot guns and two solid adults in my family house to to take care of business. Should anything happen between us and any criminals, the cops will not be privy to it.

Though I don't condone such vigilante justice but the action taken here is 'understandable' as people have lost faith in the Police and the country's Justice System.

Armed robbery is becoming brazenly rampant in Ghana because the Police and judges sometimes take bribes to free these armed robbers. If very harsh/tough sentences are handed by our courts, residents may not take matters into their own hands.

I remember my first time in Ghana...Dec 1988. Loved it too much! So peaceful, traditional even exotic! Went all kinds of place ALONE, no problem. Ghana was great.

If I come to Ghana today, I would need to surround myself with four, well-trained bodyguards now. You can't even pull out a smartphone to use it in Ghana, publicly.

I remember in 2000, 2002, when I could go to any ATM in Accra, take out hundreds of dollars converted to cedis...then return back to the compound untouched, never seeing a gun or knife or gang of thieves. Same with my movements in Ghana in 2007 and 2008. I used to cross over into Lome, because Togo's ATMs gave me far more money in a day them Ghana's banks ever could.

So now, because of community crime, I have to pay over 5 times as much money to venture in Ghana, plus pay to fly there(food, shelter, salary, airfare for bodyguards daily).

I'd now have to have a US income of over $5,000 a week to be able to spend vacation time in Ghana. Couldn't stay in a regular compound with friends in Ghana. Would have to stay at a prime hotel nightly with good security...if such a thing is possible in Ghana?

Conclusion:
Daily crime hurts Ghana and the rest of Africa, far more so then it does in the US and Europe.

Vigilante justice is therefore a MUST! I am not talking about the backwards type, like a child gets raped and her family and extended-family dis-owns her. A baby is born as its mother dies during birthing and the baby is then cast from the extended family as an evil human being because of such. After all, this is the 21st Century. But direct, adult criminals caught red-handed in the act of crime...death to such fools. Especially in places like the US, where it is costing too much to house them in prisons for 10, 20, 30 years or more.

Thank you

Look for the rest and put burning lorry tyres around their necks. Kill them, if they get you, they will kill you because you have toiled to acquire some wealth. Have no mercy for a robber, even if he steals your blade, butcher him. If you take him to police, they will be granted bail in minutes. They will then go and take lawyers who will charge them heavily. In order to pay the lawyer, they will come harder at you and me, so kill them, roast them alive, no mercy.

Why can't the same thing be done to politicians who are stealing the tax payer's money from left and right? These politicians are within your environments. Can we just be fair in situations of this nature? Or, is it because these rotten politicians once in a while distribute rice, sugar, money just to mention few to you that you turn the other eye away? Can we just be fair? What is the assurance that the person burnt to death is indeed a thief? Someone could have set up this guy for something he never did. In most places in Ghana, all one has to do is to raise an alarm 'thief, thief and people will be out with their cutlasses for a kill. It is just wrong for the fact that most innocent people may be killed. One may also just be at the wrong place and be taken as the thief being chase from one direction. It is indeed wrong for people to take law into their own hands. It does not make sense. If anything at all, it will be wise to go for the big thieves who are the politicians. They steal big, big money and not a fowl. How dare you kill or burn someone who steals a fowl and then let the politicians walk free. Is that a fair game? I don't think so.

Sad news for Ghana. Its the 21 century and we still resort to this barbaric for of mob mentality and instant justice. So now we have 3 other robbers out there and market women who will be attached at one point or another by other armed robbers. Clearly the issue isn't arm robbers. You will expect, the police and the authorities will warned strongly against such actions by the public as it does not help with our ability to solve crimes. That guy could have been used to catch the rest of the other guys. Most importantly, he was a suspect and no one deserve to die on the account of mob mentality. Innocent until proven guilty, every life means something. Lets fix the root causes. People will do what they need to do even if the punishment is death as long as they are hungry.

Why do you think we are at the bottom of the well? The assembly man must be arrested in order to identify the barbarians who lynched this young man. This is murder and they must not get away with it. No one can take the law in his own hands.

Kojo, I am ready to try and get a hold of this assemblyman. Perhaps we as citizens should work to stop this senseless acts. As a nation, this affects us all. Although i l live and work in Canada, my entire family leaves in Ghana and I would hate for any of them to be treated like a goat. Not even goats are treated this way where i live now. We can talk Kojo, let me know if you are interested.

All of you watched the picture and did not see the police man there . if he was innocent you have always killed him too. This is why our police and our common sense failed us. The police man is the first on the pix left

I would have buried him in sand, tapped his mouth open and let ants feed off his head.
