Dont rush to crucify this journalist. Look around and see what is going on in this country of ours! Renowned as well as lesser known people are doing stupid things just to endure. You can naver rule out any question especialy those obvious ones that could have been answered even before they were asked. This Gyan guy can not be judged guilty or innocent but it is up to him to speak up. It's kinna late but better late than never.

Truth be told, if I were Asamoah Gyan, I would have answered the question in order to clear my name. Our society believes in these things and the more you dance around it, the more people proclaim you guilty. I don't believe Asamoah Gyan has any spiritual connection to his friend's death but you know what, I'm just one person out of a million.
On the other hand, no matter how infantile the question from the journalist seemed, he still has the right to ask any question in this dispensation of freedom of the press and speech. These are all the excess baggage of democracy.
You opt for democracy, you develop a large heart to accommodate all these add ons.

Kenu was an idiot. His question wasn't only insensitive, it was the height of idiocy and ignorance. He was lucky he didn't receive a worse fate than just a few slaps from Asamoah Gyan's bro.

AGALAGA MUST KNOW THAT IT WAS A GOOD OPPORTUNITY FOR GYAN TO CLEAR HIS NAME OF WHAT IS ALREADY OUT THERE. WHAT IS THE INSENSITIVITY OF ASKING WHAT IS ALRAEDY OUT THERE. I DONT KNOW HOW GHANAIANS LOOK AT THINGS. GHANAIANS LACK VERY GOOD JUDGEMENT AND LOGICAL THINKING. IN THIS ERA OF TIME, GHANAIANS SHOULD STOP THIER OLD AND BACKWARD THINKING. THIS IS A SO CALL MINISTER TRYING TO DEFEND THE AN ACT WHICH SHOULD NOT BE ENCOURAGED AT ALL. IT WAS GOOD CHANCE FOR GYAN TO CLEAR HIS NAME OR REFUSED TO DO SO. THERE IS NO REASON FOR HIM TO HAVE GOTTEN MAD AT IT AND THUS INSTRUCTING HIS BROTHER TO ATTACK THE JOURNALIST
THIS IS BUSH THINKING AND BEHAVIOR AND SHOULD BE CONDERMED. AGALGA SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF HIMSELF. I WISH HE HAS A FREE CABLE OR DISH TV CHANNELS TO LISTEN TO WHAT JOURNALIST ARE ASKING PEOPLE IN OTHER COUNTRIES WHERE THERE IS FREE PRESS LOKE GHANA.
I KNOW AGALGA WILL NOT STOP RUNNING AFTER HIS YOUNG GIRLS IN TOWN AND RATHER WATCH INTERNATIONAL TV. THIS IS ALL THE MINISTER DO ALL DAY AND NIGHT. SLEEPING WITH THIER WHORES. THEY NEVER READ NOR LISTERN TO THE NEWS, YET THE GOVT PAY SETLITE TV FOR THEM. FOOLISH AND GOOD FORTHING MORON THE MINISTERS ARE.

In the first place Ghanaians rather, should STOP the "barbaric" notion that somebody is BY ALL MEANS responsible in "spiritual" sense for any calaminity that strikes.

The journalist question should have been scientific rather than normative (Ghanaian belief) when asking his quetions.

If anybody displayed "BACKWARD THINKING" as you put it, it was the journalist because his question was contra to ethics and science.

That was not really the forum for the journalist to ask such question knowing how ghan is under psychological torture because of this issue. He is even very brave not to let this disturb his woodcut to perform in a national assignment like this. The journalist did not take into consideration national interest of the game, knowing very much that ghan is key to the success of the team. He only wanted to disorganise ghan, so he can't perform for the Tampa yo lose. Beating the journalist was not right in any way, however the journalist erred.

Obed you're rather wrong. What was wrong with the question? Asking a question doesn't mean an accusation. Nobody has the right, under any circumstance, to visit assault on anyone for asking a question. We are we in 21st century and we support violence! Are we going backwards or moving forward? And thus some people get away with murders and stealing of millions, because we are afraid of asking questions. Whether we like or not, the rumour is out there. Asamoah Gyan's silence will not sweep the rumour away. I'm always flabbergasted and amazed when when we come out to support violence. Please we are not in the jungle where the strongest reign supreme

I do agree completely with the Deputy Minister. Journalist must be professional in executing their duties. Unfortunately journalism in Ghana is very unprofessional. Posing such silly questions really called for some dirty SLAPS on that very undisciplined mouth of his. However, I believe the slap should have rather come from Asamoah Gyan himself and not from his elder brother. He is likely to be found guilty of assault.

I am personally glad and happy that the idiot was given a sound beating. Next time any of our stupid journalists want to ask such a sensitive question, they will think twice.

Come on... put on your thinking cap.

For someone to ask that type of question should tell you that the reporter, despite his so-called education, is still stuck in the dark ages and it looks like you are in the same boat as the reporter to believe that Gyan was to have answered that backward thinking question.

In this day age!!!! To have people still believing that somebody can "sacrifice" another human being in order for that person to be wealthy or rich captures in full glare the reasons why these 'awam' pastors and 'prophets' are having a field day defrauding gullible Ghanaians like you, of their hard earned money.

Sad to believe that these 'thieves'can point a finger at an innocent old woman of the family as a witch and the cause of an individual family member's imagined or self-inflicted real problems and , therefore, have this precious old woman killed or abused.

So you sit there in all your 'bushman-thinking' glory and sanction that, that fool of a reporter's question was justified, Kweku Atta?

You must be out of your "backward-thinking" mind.

The only problem I'll have with the senior Gyan's action was taking the law into his own hands but then again, since there was no course of redress for the Gyan family, maybe this action was justified. The Gyan family had been pushed against the wall and you know what happens when people get caught between a rock and a hard place...that is trapped in a sense... they come out swinging, all caution thrown out the window.

The so called journalists in Ghana of these days are sick in everything they show up to do. In Ghana here questions of this nature is surely provocation, because we are aware of the sentivity of a question like what was asked.

Freedom of speech does not mean a journalist should use the media power to create unneccessary confusion and tension in the community.

I frankly had seen the great experience the deputy minister had demonstrated in his comments to make journalists especially the one in question to be aware of their responsibilty in the nation and in the community in particular..

Asamoah Gyan had every democratic right to answer the question or decline. It seems from the various responses on this issue, we Ghanaians are not paying attention. The journalist asked a question. He did not accuse Asamoah Gyan. Can't we ask questions in a democratic dispensation country? Journalist are not trained only to ask 'nice' questions.

But some of us frankly think it was a fine opportunity to exonerate himself.On the other hand there is so much suspicion about the motive and conduct of some journalists in Ghana.One cannot vouch for their integrity when it comes to bribery and corruption.The journalist like the police and lawyers are an integral part of the justice system of every country.However there are outright crooks parading as journalists whose motive is to make money rather than ensure justice.Falsehood have been published against descent people in this country to cover up rot.Rot that is supposed to be exposed have been covered up by gagging up journalist with financial inducement and other incentives.My very good friend so vocal about serious illegalities and criminal acts causing lives in Effia Nkwanta Hospital was a victim of a set up in which a nurse was instigated to inflict serious bite injuries on him.He was subsequently accused of a mental illness by his superiors with multimedia specifically joy fm used as the chief portal to defame and destroy him.My friend was subsequently sacked by Ghana Health Service with a frivolous accusation of a mental illness just because he was against the rot.He took his case to the fast track high court.The GHS knowing it is not a case they can win tightly gag it up and in fact there were direct attempts on his life following the suit.Some of those journalists who published libelous stories against him now know the truth that he was a victim of criminal conspiracy in the GHS because of his anti-corruption stance but have chosen to remain selectively mute on his story.It is amazing people talk about press freedom being violated in Ghana.The media in the country is still state controlled and of course privately controlled by powerful business mongols.Down the social ladder the story is only heard when somebody in the media suffer abuse.Even when stories of public interest are published there is no follow up because of compromise through financial inducement etc.There is no violation of human rights than a doctor suffering bite injuries,implicated with a mental illness and subsequently sacked just because he opposed rot including selling of blood and illegal fee charging in a government institution.The attacks on the journalist though unfortunate is an indication of mistrust,suspicion and lost credibility by the conduct of some bad nuts amongst them.Until journalist show professionalism by delineating themselves from politics,nepotism and corruption the verdict is a poor prognosis in press freedom.
