What is cemetery meant for? His mother was buried at home, Komla will be buried there likewise his Father, Sister and Brother--Make all homes cemetery and live in cemetery, Africans are too fools.

BUT HE WAS NOT BURIED IN A HOME.Those days,the University you were referring too was at a remote area. Also most advanced countries have their cemeteries in the middle of populated areas but in a way that it does not interfere with normal day-o-day life. That's not what we see here. With Africans, there are always spiritual reasons. Because a lot of Ghanaians were cheering the dead body of Dumor, the family thinks it is a trophy. Peter Jennings, one of the best Journalist/news casters in the world was not buried at home. Even Micheal Jackson was not buried at home. Even Mandela was not buried at home. Foolish Ghanaians

My sincerest condolences to his wife, his children and his family. May his soul rest in Peace.
To us the survivors, please take care of yourselves! Find time to take care of your selves. You take care of your businesses, your work and everything thing else and you often forget to take care of you! YOU!
As a healthcare professional I edge you all to take that moment every now and then, to go for your annual checkups! High Blood pressure (HP) and Diabetes (DM or High blood sugar) are silent killers. Most people often don't know they have these maladies!
Please take care of your selves.
Lastly, Ghanaweb, your contributors can do a better job of proof reading their pieces before posting. Mr. Dumor died in London not at London as in your piece Ghanaweb!

Still Jesus Christ is not mentioned enough at komla's funeral. the father kept on extolling his achievements. worse was his brother Dr Korshie dumor who said he would use komla's popularity to enter heaven. so, for such people Jesus came to do nothing but we can depend on our goodness and others to go to heaven. sooo sad.

It is very disappointing how we in Ghana wantonly waste resources. What benefits do individuals or Ghana get from an individual like Komla DUMOR who pursued his own personal ambition?
Why this be a national affair beats the imagination. Does his death save the hundreds of deaths in Ghana today as a result of MAHAMA's incompetence and mismanagement of Ghana's economy leading to their deaths?

We are wasting way too much resources on a guy who lived and pursued his own ambitions. Are we going to do same for the Abedi Pele's and Michael Essien's who even wore the national jersey? Think, Ghana think!

My brother you are right. What did he achieve that we have not seen before? Did he invent penicillin? or just for the mere fact that he worked for BBC? The hype is too much. Don't we have equally or better people in Ghana who are never mentioned for their contribution to humanity. This is just colonial mentality because he worked for BBC.

A great man or woman is someone who has sacrificed his life in one way or another to better the lives of others...not only his loved ones and friends, but society in general. I don't know if Komla did that. Maybe so. I didn't know him personally so Im not here to debate on what he did or didn't do but just to say that the best way for us to be remembered is that we laid down our lives for others and not only friends and family. If Ghanaians would do that, Ghana would be a different place.

Cornelius was a man in the bible who feared God and gave alms to the poor always. He truly demonstrated his faith in God, and God could not sit down to let this man perish, but sent an angel to speak to him and instruct him on what to do, which resulted in him and his house getting saved.

Last I say Mr. Dumor on TV he was full of life. His death was shocking but that's usually the way of outstanding men. He was a worthy ambassador of Ghana in particular and Africa in general.
