Not so long ago Bishops came out very timidly and sheepishly to encourage our people to speak up but forgot to tell them to be cautious. These pepeni/ayigbe criminals will stop at nothing in their agenda to deny freedom to the Akans . Their so call 4 th republic is nothing but a sakawa scam of oppression that ensures the Akans never enjoy the benefits of the 21st century.Blood was shed in the beginning and it can only end in war , no fake elections will ever change anything , even Kuffuor's govt was nothing but a show and exercise in futility . There is no partisan politics in Ghana only tribal affiliations of those who are for or against the Akans , that is why democracy or pluralism does not exist with the Ewes and the vote 99.9% for ndc. Stalin the dictator once said it doesn't matter what the people vote , what counts is who counts the vote . Another statesman i will quote here is Winston Churchill who in 1899 then a journalist wrote the most retrogressive destructive force is Islam . Today we have a govt which is dominated by Muslims some camouflaged as Christians , they even take christian names such as Alajih Collins Dauda but are diabolically evil incarnate. Where in the world does a minority pepeni mafioso clan occupy over 80% of a govt and claim to be working for the benefit of the majority? NPP is try to clean up its backlog of pepeni dominance but until they get rid of Bawmia their party or movement will remain contaminated . Under the circumstance and in today's climate and northerner that must by force infiltrate and occupy a position of leadership can only be considered an enemy of the Akan. Yes they pride themselves in being able to infiltrate every Akan society but we laugh at their sorry ass attempts to come close to the true Akan freedom fight movement. The clarion call will sound soon and we shall surely defeat them. They adorn themselves with glorious titles but in reality nobody respects or wants them except their pitiful idiot fools. They fake republic is falling apart from within and all their loans , sale of Akan wealth will be declared non and void . Go to Takoradi and notice how the oil companies are already sizing down operations as only a fool does not see this is a war we Akans can not afford to loose. They already have made us second class citizens in all matters of state and governance so why keep up the charade ? Our fathers for centuries fought for freedom and Independence only through trickery , lies and a fake revolution be today colonized by ayigbe and pepeni mafia criminals. The bishops are afraid to speak openly the truth , that under the cover of evil pepeni/ayigbe darkness our country has been islamized and its only a matter of time when honest citizens will be forced to face Mecca while their heads are being chopped off. The only true opposition movement today is the free Akan nation one. You all know for years i have presented the ugly truth and every time you investigate every thing stands correct , do sleep but prepare

I wonder why NDC people are so scared of Nana Addo. You know why? they are doing that to save their asses from going to jail where they belong. NDC cup is full and I assure Ghanaians that 2016 is their judgement year.

Asawase is a trouble spot that should be carefully monitored. I do not know the residents but it seems they are too hot-headed and careless about life itself. What prevented them from sending this suspect to the police? At times, I do understand the frustration that comes when thieves are handed over to the police but the people of Asawase should be careful in sending people to their untimely death.

What a useless country. We are animals. What a waste of space we occupy on earth. Why did the colonial masters give up this land to these animals? Yes these animals will take the law into their own hands because the Judges will release the thieves if they are given a goat. Every goddamn thing is for sale in this waste land called Ghana. Even the presidential Lounge at the kotoka international airport is used for drug trafficking, what do you expect from such a useless land? Primitive people. Go and collect the money Woyome stole so you can buy some Psychotic medications to cure the madness and stupidity. We are too far behind. Some idiot will surely reply this message to say im using insulting words. Well, before you write such nonsense to me, ask yourself some deep questions, what if the dead boy was your brother? Idiots. In your stupid mind, you are saying to yourself your brother wouldnt steal a phone!!!. Well they guy in question was a suspect!!! Idiots.

My friend just look at the picture to guess who the residents of Asawase are. Pay particular attention to the guy holding the kettle or buta. They are mostly unemployed youth aimlessly plying the streets of Ghana with no hope for the future and that coupled with ....... (fill in the blank) fanaticism, that is recipe for doom for mother Ghana. Our leaders must start to think twice because they are milking out anything that is salient and good out of this country and leaving a bankrupt nation devoid of any ideas to the youth. All that the youth can do now is to conceive of criminality to survive.

This is what happens when the whole system is gradually crumbling down and there's no respect for the law! Our current generation will have to learn a lot from the mistakes of the elderly in order to avoid repeating them in future. Too many cracks in the system and it's entirely up to us the citizens to straighten things out.

This story is deeply disturbing and unbearable to read. It's more terrifying with the notion that some Ghanaians accept this level of mob violence. I guess in a country where there's little police presence, rickety justice system, this is how the 'law' is dispensed. All they needed to do was to hand him over to the police, not killed him over a phone.

This tells you the type of government we have in charge of our country. When you have a corrupt government in power nothing seems to go in the right direction. Because they themselves are braking the law, how do you expect them to enforce the law. NDC government is the most useless government since we gained independence. 4 more years of this useless government will be very interesting, and it will be very predictable.
