    Release the students immediately

  • Frank Agyena-Karikari 12 years ago

    Police, don't keep them in jail. Just beat them up properly and let them go to nurse their bruises as Rawlings used to do to some of us. Hahahahahaha
    What do you expect students to do when they have no lectures, project work ...

    FRANK, YOU ARE A FOOL.AS AN OLD VANDAL, WE USED TO PERFORM OUR VANDALS DAY ACTIVITIES WITHOUT ANY POLICE INTERVENTION EVEN IN THE DAYS OF KUTU ACHEAMPONG

  • BAD MOUTH 12 years ago

    I am a Legonite (Gentleman) and sincerely do think that Vandalism in Commonwealth died a long time ago.
    Grow up guys and appreciate the serenity of the vandal free era.

  • ZoRRo 12 years ago

  • Kwaku 12 years ago

    The JSS boys will deal with you ruthlessly idiots

  • kolo 12 years ago

    everyone knows anything called police is a criminal association

  • johnny 12 years ago

    you are a son of a bitch

  • Rob 12 years ago

    It's so obvious. Teachers are on strike and government can't afford any further acts that could lead to more agitation, so as usual, just use some heavy handed tactics to calm the students down.

  • peace 12 years ago

  • Lion 12 years ago

    Peace...you are a simple minded imbecile....

  • Kwaku 12 years ago

    You are a fool

  • Don Blunt 12 years ago

    I hope someday Ghana Officials will treat urgent matters this way.

    Why do our people know all laws and regulations concerning quite unnecessary issues, but fall short when we are endangered?

  • Wiliam 12 years ago

    Floats have been organised regularly without incident and with Police protection. Does it not strike you that this sounds unusual and requires some questions answered before you try to rubbish the Police

  • Don Blunt 12 years ago

    Fact is, probably, that the police wanted FIVE DAYS notice? But would there have been "officers to monitor the float because of other pressing national assignments..."?
    Is it not somehow strange, that the Police who suppose ...

    Supporting their fathers for political power by giving the appearance an ungovernable Ghana!! Shessh!!

  • Stupid police 12 years ago

    Float by university students have never given the impression of ungovernable Ghana. The government seems to be afraid of its own shadow. Floats are not demonstrations!

  • DER- GBAALE 12 years ago

    I salute the Police for this prompt intervention that thwarted the demonstration of the students. The students think they are the only ones who have been in school. Most of us writing here have been in school long before them ...

  • Agyenkwa 12 years ago

    Can the police have enough personnel to arrest but not enough personnel to monitor the float." Come on- Ghana Police, don't be cheap".
    I wonder why you always allow the NDC gov't to misuse you.

  • johnny 12 years ago

    you sure demn right they can get 50 to go and make an arrest but not even 5 to monitor the float this is a damn shame

  • Sir T 12 years ago

    Too much excuses Ghana Police. The police always have their way. Who checks the police in ghana.

  • Begoro 12 years ago

    Ghanaian police is gradually becoming autocratic, using brutal force on innocent students. They should be clearly told enough is enough. Quite disappointed about the police service always getting involved in controversial is ...

  • Stupid police 12 years ago

    Ghanaians need protection before so-called foreign dignitaries. If you need more police, employ more. There is enough money in the system.

  • Daniel OfosuAppiah 12 years ago

    Well the police have lots of information at hand as to the intentions of the students.I bet you the police are ahead of the students as to their aim for the float.
    Police , investigate and let the law takes it's course.

  • muna 12 years ago

    is the police saying that they have run out of staff or what.

  • Sir Kofi Mumui 12 years ago

    According to the report, over 50 policemen were deployed to stop the float. I believe only 25 policemen could have monitored the float without incident.

    These so-called Vandals are no heroes but the worst of riff-raffs. Some of us haven't forgotten what they did to the young, female vendor. Bloody rapists and animals! Take what's coming to you like the filthy dogs you are.

  • Chairman Ofori 12 years ago

    How can a mear
    hall week float be described as a demonstration? Are we going back the dark days? VANDALS will do everything possible within the means of the law to resist these despotism and oppressors' rule.

  • Kwasi Anahoma 12 years ago

    i think it a bit harsh. But i know its a warning to the NPP Taliban surogate group - AFAG.
