@Kingsley, so you who are the wise one think selective investigation of the NPP governance period is the correct thing to do??
What else can be classified as stupidity and foolishness than your warped, myopic suggestion???

True. A government that cannot create jobs for its youth but will bring a business man trying to employ the youth all because he supports another party. Pndc ideology. Ndc has nothing good to offer the youths of Ghana

It is very refreshing to see the President and all those relevant authorities taking vital steps to establish the rule of law in our beloved country. THE LONG ESTABLISHED CLIMATE OF IMPUNITY HAS TO BE BROKEN AND IT HAS TO BE DEMONSTRATED VERY CLEARLY THAT ABSOLUTELY NOBODY IS ABOVE THE LAW. This will not be achieved in one month or even in one year but what matters most is that this President, this Government has now started the ball rolling. Prez Mahama is clearly on the right track.

Ensure the civilian who was assaulted is adequately compensated! I regret wasting my vote on you. You fuuls are in government today partly due to fearless media houses like Joy. Useless government!

Do you have JDM or NANA ADDO type in your FAMILY, CLAN or even your entire HOMETOWN? Those of you, who insult people anyhow, all in the name of COMMENTS should show MATURITY or some LEVEL. Were we trained to insult?

Oh forget, it won't get to anywhere. Nothing will be done to these soldiers. Are we not in Ghana?

Then we are not having Democracy..With the publication of such Military stupidities, do you know the number of people who shall follow the story? If those misguided Soldiers are found guilty, fired from the Military and imprisoned, they shall come back to understand what it means to be unemployed. I wish those assaulted can sue them for Military Brutalities against civilians. Yes, they shall be in abject poverty until they die. Many Ghanaian Soldiers stupidly and foolishly think that wielding an Assault Rifle makes one above the law. Now, they have regretted and seen how foolish and idiotic they have been. I don’t have a milifraction of sympathy for them.

It can come to everything, especially if those assaulted sue them for Military Brutalities and win. In that case, the culprits will be fired from the Military, pay some fines and shall become unemployed for a very long time.

But some things are for the police. The police knows how to deal with issues like this not everything that the soldiers must go out. Let them be in the camp and allow the police to do their internal work

You are right. In Uncle Sam’s country, the Soldiers are not seen in town in their uniforms brutalizing civilians. It is just risky for a Soldier to do that. I have two of my children in the Military who come to me often and carry Concealed Weapons. They will never allow any stupid soldier to brutalize me because they are in Uniform. My Children will shoot back. Fortunately, I can also carry a Concealed Weapon and can fight back. Sorry that in Ghana, Soldiers in uniform do not respect the uniform but can act irresponsibly and irrationally like people suffering from a mental disorder. Well such nonsense in the Military in Ghana started at the time of Efo Jeremiah John Rawlings, Boakye Djan, the Tsikatas and their misguided cohorts.

One cannot easily throw dust into the eyes of people in this Computer Age when things or actions can be recorded without anybody’s knowledge. People just need to hasten slowly.

You can't even stop a journalist from interviewing, whatmore assault an innocent man like that.
This is terrorism. If I were the victim, you criminals would have to make the mistake of shooting me, my clan will then systematically trial your loved ones, kidnap and kill them in the most HORRIBLE way, send you the videos and pictures to maximise your pain. We will then leave you to mourn for a year, wishing you were dead, then we shall strike. You will curse your prostitute mothers for bearing you. There are some families you can't cross....whoever you mistakingly think you are.
I WOULD ENCOURAGE THE VICTIMS TO MAKE SURE THE BASTARDS LOSE THEIR ARMY JOBS, IF THEY CAN'T STRIKE LIKE MY CLAN. AT LEAST SUE THEM FOR ASSAULT AND BODILY HARM WITH INTENT TO HUMILIATE.
