Everybody involved in the killing of Mahama must be tried and jailed including people who took the videos and never helped stop this primitive killing.
A source for a goose is a source for a gander, All perceived armed robbers, thieves, rapist, murders are to be lynched by the society and that is the norm, justified by the society
Justice should be served at all cost. The DCE is suspect in this case because their story leading to the death of this officer keeps on changing by the hour.
I do not trust the DCE investigation since it has the potential ...

Fabi, your point is very, very logic. Why should a whole Captain of the nations armed forces be deployed to protect foreign miners? BIG QUESTION!!
TRUE. THE DCE MUST BE COMPLICIT IN THIS. IN THE FIRST PLACE THIS DCE SHOULD RESIGN. ARE THESE THE COMPETENT MEN AND WOMEN NANA ADDO AND BAWUMIA SAID THEY HAD?
The question here is, so if he was not a Captain and he was an ordinary citizen and happened to be mistaken for an armed robber, will this empathy be raised among us as a people. This act of the mob taking the law and prosecu ...

This young captain was kill out hate for his tribe. Hence those involved know he is not an Akan. As a result they decided to kill him straight forward to send message to non Akans.

I think you are one of those idiots who murded this Army officer.
You are a big fool. My God curse you and your generations for your heartless behavior.
Are we safe in our own country now because the assembly man who suppose to know the law organized the mobs to lynch the innocent man
There is no evidence that the DCE organized the mob. What he is saying is that the soldier is providing cover for illegal gold miners.
Foolish
Did you watch the video? With young girls watching and taking videos, a woman setting him on fire? You deserved to die in same manner.
You are a big fool ok.l hope this tragedy will one day happened to your family and you will see how it pains.kwassia

Ghanaians must wake up against this barbaric instant justice and lynching of innocent people. This uncivilized behavior must end.
@ mystic man, I didn't know we still have idiots like you talking sheet after this barbaric act .You are nothing but a senseless man.
Simply a BANANA REP.
Mr DCE are the reasons you're giving sufficient grounds for taking the life of your fellow human being? If I were you I'll resign my position as the DCE.
I have always said this and will continue to say it.......the two USELESS parties in NDC and NPP are to be blamed for everything evil, happening in our country today.
