This is very serious matter, why couldn't the office send rubber bullet instead of real? The matter should be carefully dealt with.

Police did not shoot a dead student, they rather shot a live student dead. Please, Ghana journalists, you should try to teach our young ones good English because that's your job. Anyway, how does the police shoot live arms by mistake? This is unnecessary since Ghana Students never hold a gun against the police.

Once again the unspeakable happenings around that community which present to be intelligent. Any culture that is ruthless towards the respect for laws and for animals, like cats, can never part with regards to self dicipline. The place where youths are giving supervsision of dicipline was the only place where Efo's police could mentain the dicipline and order, just with the gun. Efo is useless!!!

Osei Tawiah, you are right.That was poor Journalism. Kobina London, I understand why you think that is not bad English, but the journalist did not apply the proper punctuation. It should have read" POLICE OFFICER SHOOTS DEAD, STUDENT OF ST. PAUL SHS." SOMETIMES A LITTLE COMMA CAN CHANGE THE ENTIRE MEANING OF A SENTENCE.

Whether it is Ewe,Ga, Twi, etc , all lives matter and all tribes matter ok. Do not be blinded by tribalism Tony NY, we are all Ghanaians . Instead of you to demand for justice look at what you are suggesting shame on you! Do you get any special treatment in America for claiming a particular tribe from Ghana or Africa? At the end of the day all blacks are treated the same without regard to where you came from incase you didn't know. Please represent change and stop this behavior no child gets to pick what tribe they want to belong to before are born. I refuse to sit back and watch people like you spread tribalism and hate, I condemn this behavior as a Ghanaian because this is not what we want in Ghana.

Incompetency of the most highest order!! I don't ascribe to the fact that only the officer who fired and kill the innocent student should be apprehended. I would have thought the Ketu South District Commissioner of Police should also be recalled. Who assigned the officers to school to quell the riot and who sanctioned and issued live ammo to be used? Are we still so stuck in the past to acknowledge that live ammo are not used to control riots or demonstrations? What's wrong with us? why can the police use water canons, tear gas or rubber bullets; unless the police administration had no ideas concerning the use of these methods of controlling demonstrations. Very pathetic.

richhiee why are you calling Anna "block headed swine"? are you afraid of the guys, (hope they are men) turning this sad story into which tribe causes the most evil act in Ghana or you directed your insult to "Anna" because the name is used by females. Please no bad language, I just asked a question.

"Police officer shoots dead student of St. Paul’s SHS..."
Sad news but please improve on your "engrish".
"...shoots dead student.." tells us that the student who was shot was already dead, which certainly wasn't the case!

The student could have been shot but only got wounded. In this case, the shooting resulted in the death of the victim. This therefore, makes the usage 'shot dead' appropriate.

FOOL, GO BACK TO ENGLISH 101. IDIOT! THE POLICE OFFICER SHOT A LIVE STUDENT WHICH RESULTED TO THE DEATH OR KILLING OF THE STUDENT. " SHOOTS DEAD STUDENT" MEANS THE STUDENT WAS DEAD BEFORE HE WAS SHOT. THE CORRECT PRESENT TENSE SHOULD HAVE BEEN "SHOOTS STUDENT". IF ON THE OTHER HAND, THEY WANT TO EMPHASIZE THAT THE STUDENT IS DEAD; THEN, IT SHOULD BE "POLICE OFFICER SHOOTS AND KILLS STUDENT"....
