  • A CONCERNED CITIZEN 11 years ago

    All the blood-thirsty P/NDC criminals will never rest in peace. They will rather suffer in hell. It is only in Ghana where murderers, thieves and all kinds of criminals are respected, honoured, promoted, voted into power, or ...

    In a country where judges could be drag from their homes, murdered and their bodies burnt.The murderers think they will never die,I would never judge them, their works would speak for them.

  • Frank Mensah, Tikobo No. 2 11 years ago

    Dzraku was never part of any murder squad. Thos who were part of the judges are still lurking around as statesment, some even supposedly advising the president.

    Why all this news?Is he serving Army? if he is dead leave him alone, after all what contribution did he offered ghanaians apart from killings the innocents people.

  • Solomon Dormenyo Quist 11 years ago

    Dela-Saviour, I hope my translation is correct. A saviour should be endowed with the milk of human kindness whilst your comments seem to be the outpourings of one filled with bile (bitterness). In our culture, all Ghanaian cu ...

    Dela, if you don't have anything to do, get a good book to read. You don't have to be on the internet. If you have to, think twice. You know nothing about the person you are talking about. You are an asshole.

  • norvisi 11 years ago

    MY BROTHER IF YOU KNOW WHAT KILLED HIM AM VERY SURE YOU WOULD BE RUNNING TO THE HOSPITAL BY NOW , BETTER SHUT UP !

    What will people say about JJ when he dies?RIP or RIH(Rot in Hell )

  • Frank Mensah, Tikobo No. 2 11 years ago

    Stop spreading your virus. Lt. Col Blood never killed an ant. Your uncle had his own problems. Maybe belonged to a gang of armed robbers who, very often, end up turning the gun on one another.

  • Woman 11 years ago

    You had the nerve to say this about another person who passed away, and through circumstances so painful to his family and look at how you respond to his niece? What a cursed hypocrite! You had the nerve to attack me because ...

    Correct. Blood Draku was very harmless ,civil and hard working.He never killed even one insect,not even a mosquito before.He will rest in peace.

  • OBAA YAA BAYIFO 11 years ago

    why was he called blood? did he suck blood, kill people or was simply bloody?

  • Woman 11 years ago

    I just wrote a short while ago about my encounter with him when I did my national service as a reporter for a small newspaper then. This guy was so full of arrogance and disregard for our rights that he walked into the room ...

    Everybody has his/her turn. Yours definitely is on the way. May God seal the earth if you have never offended anybody. If however you have, let Him judge you accordingly.

  • Woman 11 years ago

    Why this hypocrisy! What right have you to stop me from narrating my encounter with Major Blood? For all you know, he didn't offend me. Nope, i won't say that! Unfortunately, he left a mark in some of our hearts about what ...

    Yap, keep the mark in your stupid body for the rest of your life. I hope that those in whose hearts you left marks will forgive you. And when your time comes, I would wish you a peaceful rest with your maker.

  • Woman 11 years ago

    Fortunately, I make positive marks wherever I go hence I don't fear your silly rants! All I said above was it was an unfortunate encounter I had with him - what's the big deal about that; why are you all so defensive? Fortu ...

    It was as simple as that, Do not misquote me." What did you not understand? Perhaps you were too empty headed to understand him at the time.

  • Woman 11 years ago

    Too empty headed indeed! You wish you had 1% of my level of intelligence those days when I was a teenager, and .01% of my level of perceptiveness now! If you were, you wouldn't jump to respond to me the way you did. You mus ...

    How much do you know about the cause of death of your ex-president, Atta Mills? Isn't that the prerogative of his family?

    I came to bury Caesar but not to praise him. The evil that men do lives after them!

    I dont think you know the person you are talking about. Dzraku was nowhere near the stupid and murderous actions of the PNDC and had no hands in the killing of those you listed. He was an honest soldier who served Ghana both ...

    You were part of the problem with your leftist nonsense. The people with whom you propagated those stupid leftist ideas now own all the oil wealth of Ghana. What do you own?

  • Frank Mensah, Tikobo No. 2 11 years ago

    Like you, I thought the so-called revolution was senseless; unlike you, I would not blame it on people like Dzraku, who was neither an initiator nor a perpetrator. He was only a good soldier. He did what he took an oath to do ...

    Aren't Ghanaians very strange? Come to think of it, the mere announcement of a death can generate so much fury.
