    The case had to go to the parliament to get the backing of a majority of MPs before he can act. Foolish boy, don't let Ashantism blind you.

  • Don Blunt 11 years ago

    Your 'future' is already history.

    I think Hon. Adjaho knows very well the stupid primitive rats that the police was dealing with. What kind of investigations is he talking about? The police should be allowed to do their works without intimidations. The police ...
