ndc can not stand the truth and attack the person and character of any individual we dares speak the truth. To call Mugabe a terrorist is a total failure to comprehend historical facts or a deliberate malicious attempt of their usual character assassination of the perceived enemies . jj killed our elite under this same warped principle. Any govt or system that refuses to acknowledge or respect the fact that Ghana belongs to the Akans is by the hand of God doomed to fail. This is evident from the bond of !
1844 and agreements of 1871 are they are the basis and our Magna carta. NDC has a foreign oppression govt in which the stakeholders or true intelligentsia of the Akans do not participate or are excluded but rather insulted , humiliated and wantonly abused. Like all oppressive govts when they see their days are number switch from their pro islamic affinities and all of a sudden remember the America are allies of brothers like we witnessed with Qaddafi, Saddam Hussein and the eastern European criminal regimes of Ceausescu in Romania. Today we have a govt in which the cardinal inner cabinet ministers such as interior , defense , finance are all non Akans . This ndc promotes the exultation of minorities and preys on the divide and rule tactics that lead only to the death of our economy. Its very interesting the posture of this ndc mafia, they know they have lost but still clutch to straws of false hope. The world confirms this bloated register , unheard of wanton looting , corruption and hegemony/tribalism of pepeni/ayigbe but they instead of resigning collectively choose to annoy us with more propaganda lies. They waste their money buying millions of bullets and arms but fail to realse even with 500 atomic bombs they will lose as war is about the awareness of the people and state of mind of the defending majority. We salute the chiefs , politicians , bishops who are not afraid to stand up for justice and respect to the market women who reject gifts of treachery. We have won , and the stakeholders of our friendly nations know the truth so we will not waste our time with fake diplomats or those who dont known what time it is. We show thanks to the British and Germans for confirming the bloated register and other atrocities of corruption we witness .

You can't go around threatening to kill anyone whether directly or on facebook. It is a crime because even if you didn't mean it, we can't take that assumption for granted and such words cause genuine trauma in the form of anxiety and fear to the person you are threatening, whether you meant it or not.

Village Lawyer, Ken Agyapong threat was a local stuff. This one na international one and it is called TERRORISM! The guy threatened a US Ambassador with death. Like I said somewhere else in another post, this guy might not even own a catapult but issued a threat. Example must be set! Even if he gets a week's jail sentence with caution, it will send strong signals that threatening another person's life is equal to attempted murder and is a criminal offence!

All the same, since there's no incriminating evidence found Against him he shld be given a warning to be cautious of that he says on media and made to go and 'sin' no more.

Everything is court court court and sue sue sue in Obamaland so I'm not surprised that the guy is sued.

I don't think so.

Words have consequences. If he is a stable person, I'm sure his words are hollow. He has no intention on carrying through on his words. However, people can't be making threats without being called to order. Let him clean gutters for a month as penance.

He should go home with his two GITMO guys. USA is the country with the most double standards in this world. Human right abuses, secret prisons world wide, toppling legitimate governments and it goes on and on. The world would be safer and better without these morons.

I won't be surprised if that guy cannot even handle a catapult! This is what happens when people think with the easy accessibility to internet and social media, you could write anything and get away with it. We have people here on Ghanaweb daily issuing empty threats, raining insults on others, making unfounded allegations and thinking because they use pseudonyms they can get away with it. You can easily be grabbed if the authorities wish to do so. Americans take threats seriously thus this arrest.
