I beg to differ on this state burial thing.

What, EXACTLY, makes him deserving of a state burial??? Mention just one!

Should every Ghanaian who works with BBC and died in mid-age be given a state burial?

What are Komla's contributions to Ghana? That he put Ghana on the World Map by working as a newscaster on BBC?

What kind of nation are we to give a state burial to somebody because he was working with BBC when died?

Komla's death is very painful to us all and to his family in particular. But let us not get carried away. We must stop this thing about a state burial.

What kind of national heroes do we really want? Succeeding in working at BBC in a private capacity is a national heroic act?
