    The greatest of all the commandments is LOVE. What is more gratifying than giving to a needing soul?

  • Akos 10 years ago

    I never knew that Ghana has the death penalty. Anybody that commits murder, especially to a helpless & innocent child don't deserve mercy.

  • Kwakwa 10 years ago

    This's not fair,why do we set the devil Rawllings free?

  • Jon 10 years ago

    Kwakwa, you are a BIG FOOL. What has this got to do with Rawlings? This devil went to butcher innocent children while they were asleep. What has got to do with JJ? As if you've never been a child before. Boys will be boys as ...

    If you do the crime, be prepared to pay the price. I'm pretty sure that poor child begged mercilessly for her dear life but, all turn into death ears & you proceeded to slaughter her, along with her siblings. Sorry dear, I ha ...

    WIGIT GUIT,WHAT ABOUT THE CHILD HE SLAUGHTERED ?DOESN'T HE EQUALLY DESERVE TO LIVE?

  • Togbe-Toronto 10 years ago

    People killing others must pay the price.

  • Hs 10 years ago

    Don't kill if you don't want to be killed
    You may not agree with me but at least you agree with me that it is a law. Hahahahahah.

    Even lizards are not killed freely, how much more a human being. We need the death penalty in Ghana. Maybe, that'll scare the daylight out of criminals like this man.

  • Truth Razors 10 years ago

    And how about you show love and give your soul to this " Needing Soul "

  • Benash 10 years ago

    According to the journalist or writer of this article the suspect used "offensive weapon." My question is what's the difference between a "deadly weapon" and an offensive weapon. I thought anything one uses to kill another hu ...

  • Konoreyawa 10 years ago

    It is wrong yet we need to respect human rights Life imprisonment perhaps with rehan=bitation as well.Frustration in life can leaad to so amny evils.

  • Cha 10 years ago

    Please, he'll be one less thug gone from the face of this earth & we don't have to worry about our tax money keeping him in prison.

  • Adongo Tongo 10 years ago

    "According to the facts as presented to the court, the convict, on March 16, 2010, slaughtered the deceased and fatally wounded two other children while they were fast asleep."
    The Daily Guide should know that to fatally w ...

  • DONATE BLOOD 10 years ago

    BAKER CAN BE CONSIDERED AS IMMATURE AT THE AGE OF 21 WHEN HE COMMITED THE MURDER THEREFORE HE DOESN'T DESERVE TO BE HANG AND ALSO HIS MENTAL VALUETION RECORD DO NEEDS TO BE EXAMINE TO DETERMINE EITHER OR NOT THE CONVICT KNEW ...

    Ghana must not carry out this ruling. Ghana is signatory to several regional and international treaties. Death by hanging is bad and should never be done in civilized Ghana.Commit the sentence to life imprisonment. Is harder ...

    What is meant by civilized Ghana to you
    in a Country where 90% of the population uses used foreign news papers as a toilet roll ?

  • Junior Adjei 10 years ago

    Oh my Ghana. Why do you continue to follow in the foot steps of other countries that use capital punishment. As a mainly Christian country, you'd think the rule of ''Thou shall not kill' would be abided by. Executions are not ...
