Why all these rise in lawlessness in Ghana? Honestly speaking, we must begin to have serious discussions to establish why this is the norm in Ghana these days
I believe it is because of the negative signals they are receiving from the government.
The Ghana Police must forgive army personnel and not revenge by lynching them. Soldiers are Zombis and cannot think for themselves.
We are waiting for investigation, before action will take place
I CAN SENSE DANGER
Who will want a stupid and corrupt institution to come and rule Ghana.
ghana now becoming a state of lawlessness,arrest those military men now
why should they arrest the soldiers? He the police officer was a security threat at that moment. They asked him not to use the but he insisted and he was in uniform too. Let us be law abiding citizens irrespective of your pro ...

Yes I agree with you it's bad but yes they didn't kill him with blocks and clubs like those villagers did
Btz,all die be die. He can even die from slaps as well. They should have arrested him for violating their orders on the security zone.
This is what we are all fighting to stop.''instant Justice''

This is Akufo Addo's rule of law.
This is tiaras nonsense. Please arrest the soldiers now and let them face justice. May God bless our homeland Ghana.
Tkme bomb
The military men,who brutalised the police,we will call denkyere obuasi people to discipline them
NO ONE GOES TO COURT IN KUMASI AND GET CHARGED.
Good soldier
ARE WE IN A MILITARY REGIME? THEN YOU HAVE TO SAY HI TO THE RESIDENCE OF DENKYIRA OBUASI
If the story is true, then it is bad because personnel of the two institutions are and must be friends, not enemies. Even though the gate was closed at the time, the soldiers could open it for the police man as they do to the ...

This is an unfortunate incident. However, the Police Officer should have taken simple instructions and return. The soldiers were working of orders. Within the Barracks there are places designated as no thoroughfare. Such plac ...

A white man will never throw away garbage anyhow, but the black does.

Now even the custodians of the law are becoming lawless. The soldiers are angry and it's just a matter of time. Akufo Addo is not fit to be Ghana's president.
If it's indeed a thoroughfare, then why did the soldiers ask him to return?A "thoroughfare" is a way or place for passage. I hope the journalist was trying to say the uniform police officer was using a " No thoroughfare" rout ...

I know that route is sometimes used by vehicles driving from Bank of Ghana / Central Police station to Bantama and other areas. It's a route through a military camp and there is a military barrier/post at the entrance.

These occurrences were happening 56yrs when I was a small boy but were not reported due to "low mouth piece" of Ghana Journalism.

#bribe I mean
U are told not to used that place,why did u not comply k3k3 h3
And, they were crying and demanding justice for Captain Mahama!!!! Soldiers are the worst offenders when it comes to people taking the law into their owns hands. Very unfortunate!!!!
How can the soldiers know actually that the policeman was a tanned one,The soldiers twere protecting their territory
Since they are soldiers who are treated special,maybe we should honour them for assaulting the policeman.
What a lawless country. Very frightening.
Why can we have peace in Ghana?
This is unfortunate and sad news. The lawlessness is now ruling Ghana. Nobody is safe
no wonder we civilians know that soldiers are not well educated
Oops! you fool of a took. is it not graduates without work to do flocking into the army? Fool of a took.
come with something better.
"ALL DIE BE DIE" AT WORK
