    Disaster. Somebody should either gag that girl or better-still, transfer her to a less critical office before she brings down the respectable image of the much revered Vice President and with it the govt itself. By just obser ...

    Maame Pratt you cannot shift blame. Criticised your incompetent
    government who caused the fire outbreak through dumsor.

  • Otubuah 8 months ago

    The PRO is a noted NPP operative and must be taken off. For all you know he supervised the setting the fire and was rather doing all for the fire to catch on properly. Look, the NPP is a wicked organization and are bent on ta ...

    Personally, I generally admire the proactive and forthright posture of the Ashanti Regional Minister to get things done. Much as that attitude is long overdue and welcome, it is typically unGhanaian. However, I must be quick ...

    Really, as far as fire-fighting is concerned?

    The Fire Service PRO man is arrogant, uncultured and unprofessional. His conduct is unbecoming of a public security officer. He probably didn't pass through proper training and discipline but was promoted through political co ...

    Instead of making sure the fire service is well equipped, you are just ranting and attacking their officers. The conduct of the minister was out of order, dont add to it

  • Newself 8 months ago

    Where has common sense gone to, that this comedy of misjudgments should be playing out through all those public figures making noises; viz the Adhanti Regional Minister, the Fire Officer and now the VP's Press Secretary?

  • Sam 8 months ago

    We will never have a country if we keep polticizing everything.

    Of course shouting does not quench fire. I think the minister's action was excessive. It can happen to anyone during the course of duty.
