Your attempt to create religious conflict in our peaceful nation is a failure. I believe the Muslims in Ghana can read through your malicious intent

Everything says the man is a big fraud, even in prison. His Mother threw him out for a reason. His is also a liar. He was causing trouble after trouble for the Oldlady, smoking ganja, not working. The piece of metal has a name but he’s it telling us. Some of us are too clever for such people.

@The Patriot, perhaps Bishop is part of his name not necessarily a Christian clergy title.

If income pauses today, what practical skill puts cash in your hand immediately? Smartphone repair & accessories is one of the few skills that still pays daily, even in hard times. Phones break every day. People fix them the same day, that's money changing hands fast. Many unemployed people, even those with jobs — are learning this skill quietly to support themselves, or gifting the book to train siblings, relatives, or community youths. Many are buying copies to empower others this season, instead of giving other gifts that finish. GET Chukky Oparandu’s guide - it breaks it down clearly for beginners: repairs, flashing, accessories sales — the skill even open doors into IT careers. No big capital. Just a skill you earn from once you apply it. If you’re planning ahead for 2026, this is one move people are already making. Rush now, Search “Chukky Oparandu” on Amazon or visit selar.co/m/chukky (French edition available).
WHY IS HE NOT A BISHOP?-OMANBA 21 hours ago

Why is he not a bishop? This
shows that christianity is full of rotten apples. A religion that allows criminals to shelter in it and prosper from their criminalities.

THE WHOLE STORY HAS ABOUT 11 PARAGRAPHS ABD THE LAST FOUR OF THE PARAGRAPHS WERE A REPEATING FROM THE EARLIER PARAGRAPHS TO MAKE THE STORY LONG. THE SCRAP DEALERS ARE ALSO PART OF THE PROBLEMS AND THEY ALSO NEED TO BE JAILED WITH THIEVES. THE THIEVES GO INTO NEWLY WIRED HOUSE AND REMOVE ALL ELECTRICAL WIRINGS WORTH THOUSANDS OF GHC AND EXCHANGE THEM FOR SOME FEW GHC JUST TO SMOKE WEE AND RED. THE SCRAP DEALERS ARE ALSO CULPABLE OF TGE OFFENCE.

Where are the all-knowing but unprincipled loud-mouth publicity seeking wannabe politicians who talk about our courts, fairness in sentencing guidelines and proportionality when its political crimes whilst they ignore the unjust application of the law against the poor?

I cannot explain why the overall moral compass of Ghana has fallen victim to the political moral bankruptcy of our time. For unexplained reasons, our courts adhere to sentencing guidelines and individual moral outrage when the poor in society commit crimes that affect an individual and by extension the family of the victim but the courts are hesitant at all times imposing corresponding stricter sentences on white collar criminals.

So here we are with sentencing someone to a 2-year term for selling a stolen item that is presumed to be valued at Ghc 2400 while the same criminal justice of the land is morally neutered from showing same outrage when Akufo-Addo era NPP thugs and security agency headed by clowns kill 8 people and maim countless others and by extension render families to slow death by a thousand inhumane ways.

Today, the head of the security agencies that oversaw the killing of the innocent at polling stations shamelessly and unrepentantly seek to be flag-bearer of the NPP party while the nation's so-called justice system look the other way.

He needs to stop smoking ganja and straughten up. His mind cannot tolerate that stuff. My exerience with drug users is that they will do whatever it takes to get money to buy their drugs and get high thninking that other people have to work to support them.
Ganja is a very dangerous drug and very addictive.

Let him rot in jail.

I was THIS close to signing an agreement to provide g500/week for one year to feed the inmates at our small, village jail. Then I remembered how much has been stolen from us by Ghanaians like him. Then I remembered how little the cops have cared about our suffering because we are Black Americans.

Then I tore up the agreement.
