  • still serving Christ 10 years ago

    Let´s not be quick in our judgements,
    the suspect has not uttered a word as jet!

    ".. witnesses say he might have mistaken the girl and the oth­ers for armed robbers, hence, the gun shot."

    That he run away from the sc ...

  • OZA 10 years ago

  • Koffi Parker 10 years ago

    You started with a good point which we know that running from the scene maybe to secure his own life and or avoid escalating the tragedy further that could result in preventable damages, fine. But did he run to report to the ...

    These senseless wielding of guns shouldn't be tolerated! Similarly, the former bodyguard of former head of state J.J. Rawlings, Abrokwah from Asamankese in the Eastern Region was gunned down by another Ewe man; his excuse was ...

    Don't be stupid and silly with your anti-Ewe colouration of this unfortunate incident.

  • Victor A. Young 10 years ago

    I'm not surprised you posted such crazy comment to my thread. When your people senselessly shot and kill innocent people you believe it's cool. Straighten up and rather stop arguing foolishly.

    You guys have killed people ...

    Too bad. the security man was either sleeping, daydreaming or drank. He shld be made to face the laws.

  • OwusuP 10 years ago

    How can you make such wild assumptions in such a serious case.I think we can best honor the soul of the child by not trivializing this issue with baseless accusations and cheap tribal innuendo.

  • KKB 10 years ago

    Oh yes, he was drank. How can you shot without seeing the target.

  • Amos Obi Nipa 10 years ago

    A two year old mistaken for a robber, in broad day light? Bizarre to say the least. Lots of questions to be answered: Was the security man properly trained and sober? Why did the father of the deceased take her to such a dang ...

    INDUSTRIAL SECURITY SHOULD NOT USE WEAPON

  • Ghanaba 10 years ago

    If the place is a high risk area, why should the father take the little girl there? The father has to be punish for putting the girl's life in danger and eventually being killed. Why do you take a little girl to go and weigh ...

  • Koffi Parker 10 years ago

    They were sitting in the summer hut,probably away from the weighing process,something terrible may have gone painfully wrong. why blame the bereaved father,this is the time he needs our sympathy not accusations, my bruda

  • Kofi 10 years ago

    Yes, blame the victim! What did the security man? Was he blind? Was the girl walking about? Did you read that the girl was sitting under a Summer hut? By your logic, why should we keep our children home at night knowing armed ...
