Thank God there was no fatality. By the way, is he a real prof or fake? Ghana has more fake Ph.d.s and profs than any country.

He got his PhD in the pugilist ring. He made this nation and Africa proud while at the same time extending his hand to help out the needy. Unlike the 'banza' academic PhD holders who find nothing worthy to do with theirs but rain insults on the Ghanaian citizenry and steal from them.

I wonder where the Prof was going or coming from at that time of the night? Ghana is too dangerous now, thanks to Mahama's corrupt regime. People shd.be extra careful. Be at home latest by 8:00pm.

Lets face facts and come out with the truth before we embark on unnecessary arguments about the title of 'Professor' that Azuma carries.

Azumas Professorship, as rightly pointed by a contributor above, is not one of those generally lame and unproductive types which our inconsequential western educated academic Professors carry and bandy around to no avail.

Azumas Professorship is real and genuine, even though it was bequeathed upon him by global acclamation.

Azuma, along with others of the stature of the great Kwame Nkrumah, Komla Dumor, Attuquaye Okine, Prof. Allotey, Theodsia Okoh, Kofi Ghanaba, Prof Kwabena Nketsia, Kofi Antubam, Philip Gbeho and a few other outstanding Ghanaians, have in no uncertain terms left their mark in this world which to a large extent has considerably projected the image of Ghana and the entire race of Black African people to higher heights.

He is an acclaimed Professor of Boxing, gyimi gyimii. There is evidence to prove that he attained the zenith of his career. There are so many of your Pastors who can't do a full page write up which makes sense yet, they call themselves Dr.X or whatever. Azumah is the one and only boxing Professor in Africa, take it or leave it.

I don't want to be a judge but from my recollection, driving from Sakaman and trying to head towards Odorkor/Kwashieman means one has to connect the main road from Kaneshie to Mallam. This requires extra carefulness.

Masa did you read the item Ok so lets take it this way, he tried to take a curve. I would want to presume that he was in the process when the taxi driver run into him as the report says. So per road traffic regulations he was half way through and the taxi driver rammed him. I was not there but even if he was wrong it was reliant on the taxi driver to have slowed down and watched carefully. And per all indications i think the later did not and we have this so in this instance I would want to waite on the police report to make my decision however i believe there should be very mindful commenters who should be careful with their comments don't just say anything because per what I know If Azumah is a professor he is in his own right and field of profession and well worth his sort even more than the lot we have parading our corridors of education.

It is unfortunate, people are condemning Azumah Nelson without knowing who was at fault.
Who controls road traffic in Ghana and how much improvements in road traffic do we see everyday compared to road traffic related deaths on our roads everyday?
Who monitors drivers to know how many blind drivers ply our roads everyday so that we can stop them? How many drunkards and drug addicts sit behind their steering wheels everyday in Ghana? Who polices the police?
Gross mismanagement and lack of accountability everywhere in our society. So long as we continue to fail to think through our problems everyday to find lasting solutions we will continue to firefight and remain unprgressive, especially if we continue to vote "leaders" like JOHN DRAMANI MAHAMA, Okudzeto, Humado, Fiffi Kwetey, Kwaakye, ET Mensah, etc, those selfish killers turned politicians.
