    WE NEED SANITY IN THIS COUNTRY. GOVERNMENT SHOULD TAKE THE LEAD BY SUPPORTING THE SECURITY AGENCIES TO SEND A CLEAR SIGNAL THAT YOU CANNOT CAUSE TROUBLE AND GET AWAY WITH IT.

    Yes, I said only God sent solutions can curb the incivility in this society. Just the other night I was driving across that stretch of road, and as impressed as I was with some developments of the highway, I was intensely app ...

    The problem is not one that demands that God should be summoned to come down to earth and solve for us as has been advised by some lazy non-thinking people. Neither is it because the people who live around the N1 highway are ...

    In fact that position of the road needs more foot bridge. The Ghana Highway Authority should effectuate immediate action to stop the killing of pedestrians.

  • ROMANUS DE CAPITOL 11 years ago

    THERE ARE CROSSING POINTS AND ALSO FOOT BRIDGES. EVEN IF THESE ARE NOT ENOUGH AND ARE NOT AT THE NEEDED POINTS WHICH NECESSITATES THE CROSSING AT POINTS NOT DESIGNATED AS SUCH THEN IT REQUIRES THE PERSONAL CARE OF THE PEDESTR ...

    pls try to use the zebra even if its far for your life.

  • DER-GBAALE 11 years ago

    In Ghana most drivers just don't mind even the zebra crossing. In countries in the developed world drivers are more conscious of human life and when they drive through town they are very watchful and careful. Even where there ...

  • ser 11 years ago

    Hmmm.... u can't be more right...pedestrian or zebra crossings are not respected by ghanaian motorists. I think the problem stems from insufficient, (if not a complete lack of )(public) education on the issue. Well, it's a we ...

    YOU ARE THE TYPE OF CITIZEN GHANA NEEDS TO BE MAKING COMMENTS ON ISSUES. I ADMIRE YOUR SIMPLE BUT VERY VALUABLE CONTRIBUTION. KEEP IT UP AND EDUCATE OTHERS. (Congratulations from Romanus)

  • SAM 11 years ago

    Thank you very much Kwaku, God bless you. Any wise person would have know that, in the process of constructing this road, at least two underground foot ways would save lots of lives on this road.

    It will turn to be a haven for pickpockets, prostitutes, and armed robbers!

  • Alabama 11 years ago

    You are right John. Unfortunately we in Ghana are our own enemy

  • Alabama 11 years ago

    It is a good suggestion but this will become a place for hooligans to thieves to operate not talking about rape. I lived in a country that has underground and it is very convenient but sorry not in Ghana.

  • Agbanyo Phillip 11 years ago

    A vote for NDC is a vote for disaster. Count the number of deaths after JM inauguration through accidents.

  • ROMANUS DE CAPITOL 11 years ago

    IF YOU DISLIKE JOHN MAHAMA OR NDC DON'T LET IT REFLECT IN EVERYTHING YOU SAY. WHETHER YOU LIKE MAHAMA OR NOT HE HAS BEEN ELECTED BY GHANAIANS AND SO THERE IS NOTHING YOU CAN DO ABOUT IT UNTIL 2016. BUT I CAN ASSURE YOU HE WIL ...

    the insensitivity of the government towards residents along the highway is beyond understanding since no provision was made to allow for crossing this is unimaginable. All those who are resident along the highway are not saf ...

    I think Ghanaians must learn to RESPECT laws! I don´t care who is killed. even dogs don´t cross highways!

  • Krakye Kwakye 11 years ago

    What laws are you talking about? Human life is more valuable than the right of passage of any car driver. In the civilized world where human life is respected, a pedestrian always have the right of way. You cannot drive a car ...
