What is the service history of the military helicopter? It would have been better if they had travelled by road in a car. Or allowed the Regional minister to represent you.

This stupid good-for-nothing so called Ghana's UK rep is suggesting rubbish. The nation has lost sensible souls and she is playing politics. How can this accident be partisan and the possibility of sabotage on the aircraft. We don't need this woman here in the UK for she seems to have no brains.

What is the politics in this? What has the NPP not done before? A political party full of murderers. For all you know, that old fool and his people are behind this and it might not be an accident but a murderous act planed and executed by the NPP, particularly that moron who wanted to hold on to power.

Have you forgotten that dangerous man Rawlings and his Battalion of Anlo Ewe murderers? How many people of different ethnic groups did they kill? B.B Bismarck was a Traditional Chief but was abducted from his Palace at Aburi and that was the end of him What about the High Court Judges? We still remember what happened to them, and how many of the Irate Soldiers who murdered them. Yes, and some Anlo Ewes among the murderers of the Judges were helped to abscond while in Custody. Were you not born yet, too young to remember or just dumb and have forgotten everything that happened in Ghana and to Ghanaians during those murderous administrations of Efo Jeremiah John Rawlings? Many of us still remember your atrocities.

If someone fiddles with the helicopter, there will be an ACAWS reading on the Avionics Maintenance unit or the dashboard. Aircraft are not like cars, though.

This is a painful tragedy that I am struggling to come to terms with. Only God knows whether there was foul play or not. May their souls rest in peace. Those bashing the woman for calling for the preservation of the crash site seem to have lost their heads. Shouldn't an investigation be conducted at the scene to establish what happened?
While I will not be quick to conclude there was foul play, it's true our institutions including the military are partisan in nature.
