EXACTLY TEN YEARS AFTER THE JUNE 3RD 2015 KWAME NKRUMAH CIRCLE FLOODS? AYE HUUHUUHU!

This June 3rd 2015 Kwame Circle floods President is back in power and spilling blood again? Exactly ten years ago under this same President, more than 300 hundred innocent Ghanaians were said to have perished under just one disaster. Ten years later we have already had one of the most horrific Helicopter crash in our country’s history, and as if that’s not enough all these young people have also perished in their quest to be recruited into the Ghana Armed Forces?

@ DECODING JOHN MAHAMA AND NDC’S BLOODY WEDNESDAYS!

ARE THEY JUST MEER CO-INCIDENCE OR SPIRITUAL? BECAUSE ALL THE THREE MAJOR BLOOD SHED UNDER MAHAMA HAPPENED ON WEDNESDAYS !

The June 15 2016, where more than 300 Ghanaians perished in just one flood at the Nkrumah Circle was a Wednesday.

The 6th August 2025 Military Chopper Chopper ( Helicopter) clash was also a Wednesday.

And today another bloody scene at the military recruitment center is also a Wednesday!

Who is happy in Ghana? Only a few otherwise how come military recruitment results in fatalities? The politicians have filed the names of their constituents and ready to be called for medical checks. Poor people's sons and daughters are crushed to death in the name of military recruitment. Elsewhere those in the helm of affairs heads will roll but not here in Ghana. Why should such number of youth gather in one particular place for screening instead of doing it in regional capitals ?

Nigeria man would say you are muumu. I asked a simple question. Tell me if NPP Government, your tribalistic family and friends party had ever conducted this foundamental Ghana Army Traditional General public enlistment during their 8 years in government. When NPP was using the Ashanti and Akyem tribalistic thugs to join the Ghana Armed Force via protocols, or my uncle said it should report for training. NDC was doing our old traditional way of enlistment. And this tragedy occurred. But Ashanti and NPP will always be Ashanti. If its not them, then nobody every good thing is evil. Thank God even the smart Ashantis are tired of this tribalistic mindset.

All these recruitment agencies need to be sued.

The Ghana Army has to compensate the dead family.
Almost everything in Ghana is chaotic, why?

What has this got to do with Islam? I am not a Moslem but will never insult any religion or its founder . The military in Ghana has no clue when it comes to security . They can't stop galamsey, simple crowd control, they are found wanting. This is a national disgrace. Why can't the military do this recruitment little by little? It has been the same process since kojo hoohom!! The military must recruit a historian so they can learn from history so the bugabuga way of doing things can be nipped in the bud.

The Minister of Defence and the Chief of Defence Staff should be held accountable for this incident. What prevented them from doing this recruitment exercise in phases. In Ghana nobody takes responsibility for any kind of incident even when common sense could have prevented these deaths. People should bow down their heads in shame and pay for their negligence.
