You are dead right. I was appalled listening to the various statements by the NPP attempting a justify this blatantly reprehensible action without seriously considering the consequences for the state and its people. This is the time for religious leaders and others to speak out and condemn the NPP.It will however not happen because it is the NPP and not the NDC. May the Almighty God help this country.

Ghanaians have allowed loudmouths in the NPP and NDC but especially in the NPP to think shouting over everyone makes them right, knowledgeable and intelligent. With each passing day we hear ignorant pastors, head of churches masking as God's men do their dirty work in favor of their favored political party, while every clown of the first order with some worthless degree from God-knows-where pretend to know what they are talking about.

Anyone who justifies wrongs by the NDC or Mahama's government is dead wrong but anyone who’s stupid and dumb enough to justify bringing SA mercenaries into Ghana for whatever the hell they are using for a reason should be rounded up and shot because anyone who goes against the security of Ghana from within Ghana and or from outside Ghana engages in acts of treason; and treasonous acts carry a death sentence folks and or long term prison sentence. I will prefer their being hung.

We have a STRANGE DISEASE on our hands. This disease cannot be cured by every day HERBS. A special HERB is needed. Kufour knows this HERB but is keeping it away from us in a hypocritical support of Nana. Kufour will never vote for Nana come election 2016. Mark my words.

Your analysis is shallow and you are comparing apples and oranges? The question you should ask yourself is this: If Akufo Addo and the NPP have something to hide then what could have prevented them from sending the 15 men outside Ghana to train them?
Remember also that they were doing the training at the premises of a Ghanaian Security Training Agent. Is the training of individuals in matters of security illegal in Ghana? No so what prevents the Security Agency from employing foreigners to work for him?

Coming home one must ask what the government id doing to ensure the safety of its citizens and especially the politicians? Do you know what prompted the murder of the NPP MP? Do not buy what the Ghanaian security are saying it could be random looting that led to the murder? Thank carefully and you will know it was planned and the guy may have been contracted to do that. Even the ladder used to climb up there should tell any one that the MP's murder was planned.

Under the present situation where the government seem to be doing nothing about the safety of individuals, it would be foolish to NOT do anything. Look at how the fulanis are murdering people at Agogo, thugs loot and kill passengers everyday on our roads so what do you say if people begin to arm themselves? The solution is NOT to make propaganda about the trivial issue but to assure Ghanaians that they are safe and the demonstrate it.

To our politicians, everything is good for propaganda. This must stop and both the ruling and OPPOSITION POLITICIANS MUST SIT DOWN AND THINK SO THEY CAN RULE THE COUNTRY.

I rather see this as a desperate attempt by NDC to justify the hullabaloo they have created about Akufo Ado body guards training. The whole idea is a no-brainer..... NDC is using to divert hot issues about their gross ecinomic mismanagement. They have dissipated $37billion in 8 years and their meaniglesd diversion s will be ignored by the electorate...... storm in a tea cup.

This is the sort of proactiveness Ghana need from its leaders. This what happens when a govt communicator confidently threatens an opposition leader with death on air and nothing is done even though others have been arrested for allegedly making disparaging remarks about the president. That's not all...from Agbobloshie, through Atiwa to d last by-election....opposition supporters have either been maimed or killed and nothing has come out of it....question is national security now ruling govt security? Dangerous time ahead....if people continue to think with their stomach not their head....a word to the wise...

Kufour sacked Poku for arranging for the training behind his back and for other doings of Poku, and not merely for arranging for the training in Israel.
Kufour and Akufo Addo are operating in different times too. The performance of our security organisations is not the best and they are selective in their operations in most of the times.
