The Ghana Broadcasting Corporation has no shortwave station or globally accessible satellite channel. Ghanaians abroad and in remote locations on earth are unable to keep up with local events. This lack of foresight is mindboggling. The internet has filled the gap to some extent.

What is Ghana's deadline for ending analogue broadcasts??

A 50yrs old man buying hard liquor and sitting down at a public place to drink with a minor. And there's no shame in this because we're Africans. Please give us law to protect our children. No insult intended. Thanks

This guy should counter-sue the bitch! She is lying just to gain some cheap popularity of her own. The story does not hold. At nineteen, you follow a man into the bathroom of a hotel room, having left your mates seated in the room, under the pretext of going to powder his nose for the lights. Hogwash!

In most cultures, a 19-year old is not a minor, and needs no legal protection. If it was not consensual, then you have a point. But if the 19-year old consented, there is no law broken. The morality of an older guy taking advantage of an inexperienced woman is another issue, but not one for the law. The fundamental problem is one of poverty: you have a situation of high unemployment, little education and people with dead ends, where powerful men with a little more disposable income than the average "Kojo" can lure these wide-eyed materialistic girls into these sorts of escapades. If the women had options, they probably won't put themselves in these situations. Sad, but that is the fundamental problem which needs addressing, not legal protection for emancipated women.

Poverty can drive an innocent girl to where she might not have gone to.
It's very sad,when one's parents are not to the limit that they can support their children very well,hence opening the flood gate of insecurity in the part of the innocent children,to all sorts of exploitations.
The girl is a beautiful chap who deserves some respect,but succumbed to what she might not have agreed,for some few cedis.
She might need some dresses for the CHRISTMAS,like other friends whose parents might have supplied.
HENCE,FALLING VICTIM TO ALL THESE HORROR.
I pity the girl,anyway.

Rather to teach them to be of good citizens we the grown ups exploit the young ones. You will see the damage you have done to yourself. This will work against you bitch.

You are such an idiot and very ignorant. In North America so long as you're 18 you can sleep with whoever you want and she's 19 so there's no crime committed. The only crime I might say was committed is that he bought her alcohol but in Ghana there is no law that says someone has to be 21 years before he/she can drink and don't forget the legal marriage age in Ghana 16 years. Don't let your emotions cloud your judgement.

Please Mr Okraku Mantey, dont twist the matter at stake! The media reported that the girl reported a charge of RAPE against KKD. Lets stick to that until he goes to court and is proved guilty or not guilty.

But I agree with you Mr Mantey, that brand KKD is tainted for ever! OR I will say he is finished!!!!!!

Our culture looks down on "awerrrrrrraaa", which is A man or woman who sleeps with someone far younger than themselves. And for that reason a lot of women will lose interest in what KKD stands for. Also society will see him as setting bad example to the youth.

So even before KKD gets the chance to defend himself, culturally, he is damaged!!!

KKD, we are told, has a daughter in the UK who has long graduated from UNiversity. In the UK, the normal age for graduating from University is 21 years old. So presumably, KKD's daughter is older than this girl, who has brought so much shame to KKD.

How do you think KKD's children will feel? As adults, we should think before we act.

5 minutes of cheap pressure has brought so much shame, regret, pain, embarrassment and disappointment to KKD and all those who "loved or liked" him.

The women groups are watching too!!!!!

Sir James Wilson Vincent "Jimmy" Savile, OBE, KCSG (/?sæv?l/, 31 October 1926 – 29 October 2011) was an English DJ, television presenter, media personality and charity fundraiser. He hosted the BBC television show Jim'll Fix It, was the first and last presenter of the long-running BBC music chart show Top of the Pops, and raised an estimated £40 million for charities.[1] At the time of his death he was widely praised for his personal qualities and as a fund-raiser.[2] After his death, hundreds of allegations of sexual abuse were made against him, leading the police to believe that Savile was a predatory sex offender,[3] and that he may have been one of Britain's most prolific sexual offenders.[4][5][6][7] There had been allegations during his lifetime, but they were dismissed and accusers ignored or disbelieved; Savile took legal action against some accusers.
So Ghanains please be wise in how to deal with this sex case.

Our brothers in the north will never accept that a 19-yr old girl is a minor. The so-called minors are more dangerous than the old ladies. For me, the issue is whether there was a rape or no?
