Look at how Nii Teiko Tsuru and Nii Adama Latse settled their case beautifully in court. Youth groups are killing each other in Akan lands. Why?

These traditional rituals that have no clear code always leads to confusion
If you want to be safe always stay way from some of these primitive and backward practices performed under the guise of tradition

I repeat - The antiquated and anachronistic chieftaincy institution must be systematically and gradually undermined and eventually abolished. It is divisive, breeds tribalism and is a harbinger for war. Look across the entire country and see what is happening? Are we running a parallel government of chieftaincy and democracy?

From the south to the north, there are conflicts ranging from land to chieftaincy disputes, escalating into inter ethnic violence. The Gas, Asantes, Bonos, Ewes, Gonjas, Brifors, Kusasis, Mamprusis, Nanumbas, Kokombas, Nkonyas, Alavanyos, the Dagombas, the Nkwanta people, Adele, Mirigu, Doba etc. Everywhere is war or rumours of war. How can we develop as a nation?

Don’t blame John Mahama for the stupid behavior of such goons. They are no babies and knew that they were breaking the laws of the land. Please use individual Cellphone recordings to identify such fools, put them to trial and let them do about Four or Five Years each in Hard Labor. They can be chained up in groups while they clean up in the locality from 8:00 am until 4:30PM. Let them work while in Prison and are fed free.

And from there, they will learn nothing but shit around openly, and even at the Sea Shore and in gutters behind their houses and even in the streets. Can we call this civilization? This is very shameful. A festival designed to bring togetherness and enlightenment and see what you are doing. They are just foolish fools. With Cellphone recordings by individuals, the Government can pay for them and arrest those videotaped involved in such nonsense. Please, arrest those individuals identified, put them in Police custody without bail, put them to trial and let them do Five Years with Hard Labor if found guilty by the Judiciary. Next year, increase Police presence there and let the Police invite the Military to bring sanity there. They should stop that nonsense and learn how to shit at the right places but not everywhere.

Eiiiii when will these behaviours stop? Why is it that its only chieftaincy and land issues are the most common community violence in this country. I believe this government can rally the necessary stakeholders to change the status quo. This happening is uncalled for. Can we channel our energies into something more profitable to our communities and the economy of this country.

The perpetrators of these attacks and violence are the same NDC goons / thugs who were trained and armed to destabilize the 2024 general elections on behalf of the National Demons Congress (the NDC). These goons and bastards are well trained and armed by the NDC to wreak havoc and mayhem on innocent Ghanaians who don’t embrace the violent NDC political system. Most of the NDC parliamentarians know that they didn’t win by Fair means and still supporting these thugs and goons to help keep them in power. It’s no wonder their so called strongholds are all in chaos. God help Ghana.

I wrote the other time that on such occasions life ammunitions must not be used. The gunpowder that is being used must not contain any hard thing wood, clay or metal that will cause death.
The Ghana Armed Forces and Ghana Police must be ordered to examine those muskets before they are used whenever there is a festival.
As an assistant chief, I am of the view that the main thing is make noise with gunpowder without causing harm to anyone. My musketeers have been doing so for the past four years without causing harm to anyone.
One who loads a musket that is supposed to be used in ceremonies have the intention to kill. Because on such occasions, during gun firing or mortar firing blank bullets and shells are used by the security services.
People who take the lives of others during such occasions must be punished they must be given the maximum sentence.

The ongoing conflict in Ga serves as a gentle reminder that peace, not division, should guide our understanding of communities. Rather than labeling entire groups as barbaric, as conflicts in the North are often unfairly described, we must recognize that wrongdoing stems from individuals, not ethnicities. In Ga and most southern regions, where tensions have surfaced, the presence of police helps maintain calm, fostering an environment where peace can prevail more readily than in the North, where fewer resources exist. This moment calls us to reject stereotypes and embrace unity, acknowledging that every tribe has its share of individuals who stray, but these actions do not define the whole. By focusing on shared humanity, we can nurture peace across all regions, building bridges rather than walls. The Akans, especially the Ashantis may think they are immune till the big one happens. We are all one. Let’s attack crime and not people. Lizard!
