    I always talk rubbish in this forum, attacking and insulting people but Kwansemaa's tribute has made me change for good. What a wonderful family.

  • .... 10 years ago

    Udey, you must be ashamed for casting such lustful eyes on the lady. Mind you she is mourning.

  • Kwamina 10 years ago

    She needs to get on with her life. I believe there are many suitable suitors amongst the mourners eyeing her.

  • RED-SOKOTO-GUDARI 10 years ago

    The title of this tribute is misplaced! How can the recount of how she met Komla be captured as how he died?

  • Yaa Nkosuo 10 years ago

    That's what i asked myself.
    Sometimes the editors put up a caption that would attract your attention like that of the Rawlingses above.

  • Amadu Dumor Sokoto 10 years ago

    I always maintain that this lady has a hand in the untimely death of Komla Dumor .Prove me wrong.Why did she not tell us how he died? Heart attack is something that should have been traced long before his death as he was in U ...

    I do support your enquiring mind. Mrs Dumor should tell us more. Was she in the matrimonial home that fateful Friday night?

  • FANTASTIC BOY 10 years ago

    You're very ignorant.One can have a completely nornal physical exam and even normal stress tests yet die of heart attack the following month.Some people can be lucky and present with chest pain refered to as ANGINA. Heart cat ...

    KOMLA WAS DOING SUPI TINGS BEHIND THE WIFE'S BACK. SO TILL DEATH DO U PART...
    WOMEN LIKE GUYS ON TV....

  • Okro Moff 10 years ago

    As for Ghana journalists and their okro moff, walai! Even Goebbels would have been amazed by them. Guess, they follow the Ayariga school of journalism:

    "If you see a white goat, write black cow...!"

  • mky 10 years ago

    You guys are apparently naive, so let me educate you a bit on what goes on in the newsroom...there are reporters and there are headline writers who are charged with the responsibility of writing captions/titles for stories su ...

  • Angelo 10 years ago

    Then this headline writer must be sacked, very diametrically opposite headline indeed. These are the journalists of the day. He probably has been given an award for such incompetence.

  • GHFUO, be serious & change ur MENtali 10 years ago

    HOW COULD KOMLA BE FAT, BUT HIS WIFE ISNT FAT. WAT WAS THIS FANTE WOMAN FEEDING KOMLA? CHIBOM AND SAUSAGES, ABI? WHY WONT HE DIE....
    WITH A WOMAN AS CUTE AS THIS. WHY WONT SOMEONE DEAD YOU, KOMLA?....

  • AA 10 years ago

    It is really shameful the kind of journalism we do here. How Kobla died? Whoever wrote that is a disgrace. How does this tell us how he dies as the title of the article? Shameee! Stupid jounalist/writer.

  • Yaovi 10 years ago

    Oh Komla, you left such a beautiful lady for wicked men. Death is wicked!

  • Fosfros 10 years ago

    Yaovi, do mean Komla left Kwansemaa for gay? I need more on this, explain pls

  • Maame 10 years ago

    And how is this suppose to be in line with your headline to the story? It's her tribute to him and we all heard her spoke.

    This tells you how our education in Ghana is becoming a waste. The headline and the article are totally different. Who ever wrote this should take ELS classes.

  • KnYc(USMC) 10 years ago

    Sorry ESL

  • S. K. ANSAH 10 years ago

    With hindsight Komla should never have been going to his village on becoming so successful. Many wise Voltarians never step a foot there because they know the consequences. As if going there was not enough, he was made a deve ...

    YOUNG SUCCESSFUL PEOPLE FROM ALL OVER THE WORLD DIE. STOP THE SUPERSTITION.

    S.K that is a fact. All my Volta friends hardly go back to their village, with all the money they have, they hardly pay a visit to their village.

  • Johnny USA 10 years ago

    IS NOT RUE, IS KOMLA THE ONLY BETTER PERSON VOLTERIANS LAND GOING OR NOT GOING TO HIS HOME TOWN?PLEAS LET PRAY FOR HIN TO HAVE RIP. AMEN.ALL DIE BE DIE.

  • Maria Saltson 10 years ago

    It's amazing how people still think as if they are living in the 17th century. Are we being made to understand that prominent people from other tribes don't die? That there are no tombs in other towns safe Volta Region? Or ...

    Even the editor of this 'Journalist' couldn't see that nowhere in the report was mention made of how Mr. Dumor died. SHAME!

  • Ruth 10 years ago

    What did he die of and how can people learn from it to avoid a similar fate? Is it from stress etc? He is just too young to have died. Poor lady, God be with you and your children.

  • DJABATEY 10 years ago

    Words cannot describe your pain. I even fill it in your words. I pray that Jesus, our hope of resurrection will keep you and the children till you meet Komla again.
