Honestly why has the teacher gone Scott free? There is so much injustice in this country. What is GES doing? Wake up and seek the welfare of the children who are being raped, brutalized and now murdered by the very ones who should be educating them.This is nothing short of manslaughter and the teacher should be charged.

The teacher used his authority to force a child to climb a coconut tree, thus endangering the child. This is the crime of endangerment of a child leading to death of the child. Both the teacher and the school should be held liable because they were responsible for the safety of that child whiles in school.

This foolishness must stop because we are all Ghanaians first.
If you are abit older, you would remember the so called ritual murders before Kufuor which was exactly used to win votes only for the perpetrator to be found as a natural psychopath after investigations were complete in Kufuor's time.
If you have better criticisms of the gov't, voice it out as a good citizen instead of this cheap destructive politics.

It is amazing the way some Ghanaians think these days. It appears they are so narrow and hollow they can only think in terms of this kind of stinking politics. How one cannot see an incident like this as a sad and unfortunate tragedy but rather a fertile ground for promoting an ulterior political agenda defies reason.

Idiot, now that Mahama is being blamed for this disaster, you don't want anybody to be blamed when you fools have been blaming Kufuor for Ya Na and stadium disaster.

Unfortunate and sad incident. I think the law enforcement agency must be blamed for not prosecuting the tutor. It was Joy FM that brought the news and nothing has taken against the tutor. May his soul rest in peace

I urge the Ghana Bar Association to act on behalf of this poor boy and force charges on the teacher and the headmaster who refused to protect the security and safety of the boy. His paralysis and subsequent death is diametrically linked to the teacher's forced instructions and decision. The teacher was negligent in the exercise of his duty and must be held accountable. Ghanaians with good conscience must also come together to support the boy's family to push charges against the teacher and even the hospital for refusing to operate on the poor due to lack of funds. I am sure some good Samaritan would have paid the bill following the surgery and he didn't have to die like that.

Ghana has become a very dangerous place to live and so many of these circumstances are attributable to politics which no one wants to listen. Speaking the truth against a party has become abominable, even it is true. I am BOLD to attribute all the stupidities in Ghana to JJ whose efforts have landed us here through incorrigible bribery, intimidation, acquisition of ill gotten wealth of which he is the leader and everyone else is copying. Ghana has since become a lawless land because we all see what is happening and following suit. I cannot believe this poor boy died and no one out there with stolen funds went to his aid. The future is very bleak for us. Any challenge or contribution to this thought?

This was a very unfortunate accident, but the focus here hould also be on the medical issue. A young man has to die due to lack of finances for his medical care???? There needs to be some form of medical assistance and reform from your government. Tragic instance of lost life.
