The problem in Bawku is not about arms or anything other, BUT IMPUNITY.

The Supreme Court settled the chieftaincy dispute years ago, yet one faction has vowed to ignore the ruling and instead of the Government enforcing the law we are all begging both sides to let peace prevail, as if both sides are breaking the law.

Tell me! Does this mean both sides are wrong at the same time? So why beg wrong doers to come to a negotiating table? To negotiate for what - to be allowed to disobey the law? This is the crux of the matter - the inability to enforce the law!!! And worse still the inability of society to say that the law must be enforced.

From all indications the National Peace Council is actually perpetuating the conflict by rewarding the wrong-doer with recognition instead of punishment, why won't they continue?

For goodness sake, Kusasis and Mam[prusis cannot both be right or wrong at the same time. Until this fact is appreciated we are directly fuelling the conflict. Our society is terminally ill HYPOCRISY.

All of a sudden nonentities want to portray to the world how close they were to the late President.

Those who had to chat with him for one hour everyday, those Deputy Ministers who had to call him every morning before the man could even brush his teeth, and still those who would be called to the Castle by the late President to express his appreciation for job well done after they had gone to insult political opponents in the media on his behalf. Shameless id.iots raising their egos

THIS GOVERNMENT IS NOT SERIOUS!ASK PEOPLE TO BRING THEIR OLD WEAPONS FOR CASH TO GO AND BUY NEW ONE? WHAT HAPPENED THOSE WHO WERE SHOWN ON VIDEO IN 2009 RUNNING A GUERRILLA TRAINING CAMP IN BAWKU? WHEN PEOPLE LOSE TRUST IN THE GOVERNMENT'S ABILITY TO IMPARTIALLY PROTECT THEM, THEY RESORT TO SELF PROTECTION AND SELF DEFENCE AND THAT IS WHAT IS HAPPENING IN BAWKU NOW. GOVERNMENT SHOULD STOP BEING LAZY IN THEIR APPROACH TO DEALING WITH THE CONFLICT IN BAWKU. THEY SHOULD RESOURCE THE NATIONAL PEACE COUNCIL AND THE SMALL ARMS COMMISSION TO DO AN INDEPENDENT JOB IN BWAKU.

Mp Cletus Avoka and MP Mahama Ayariga have stockpiled weapons at Naaf Kologo in Zebilla and Kuka, Missiga and Sobongere in Bawku in Aid of the Kusasis. These two deadly politicians are the king pins of the troubles in Bawku. Also to add that the so called chief's palace is an armoury. If we actually have security persoonel in Bawku then the leads given must aid the notion of safety in Bawku and around.
