This is happening in the country because the occupants of some positions, their friends and relatives become untouchable no matter how serious their crime is. But in every civilized country, Law is no respecter of persons or position. Ghana is therefore the most uncivilized country in Africa.

Those in authority are laws to themselves.In a Country where a Minister can sack a Policeman,because he has been stopped for oversleeping,where Judges are taking bribe to release criminals,where the laws are only applied to the poor in society.When it comes laws,we are still primitive.

Good job Kojo. Tell them. Myopic and blatant thiefs place themselves in roles they can't handle and become obstructionists.

Konongo Kaya!

No law works in Ghana. Our so-called big men are all above the law. You cannot punish them when they flout the law. Only the poor man is punished in Ghana. It is a big shame

How do you enforce law when judges exchange justice with goats, rice, kewro, plantain, bags of rice etc.

A young Ghana mosquito went out flying for the first
time in its life. The father asked: "How do you feel?" The mosquito replied: "It was GREAT! Everyone
was clapping 4 me. The father replied, "They weren't clapping for you.
They wanted to kill you. The more they clapped,
the more chances you are likely to die." LESSON: In life, not all the people who celebrate you
are well wishers..... So, be careful

The Ghana mosquitoes never left town like the SADA Guinea fowl.

You are right, in Ghana today, the law is controlled by Mahama and Asiedu Nketsia. My question is what is the duty of the Council of State. I thought they would be advising Mahama but their interest is their monthly money

For the Laws to work in Ghana, the people of Ghana must be aware of the laws that exist, be willing to live by them and help enforce them. For example, what are the laws governing a traffic violation. Most individuals will rather pay a bribe than request a ticket. When a ticket is provided, the ticket must describe in detail the incident for which the ticket is giving as well as the name of the officer that issued it. Imagine if all drivers requested tickets. You indirectly force the police to act appropriately. Because you get a ticket doesn't me you are at fault. you can always contest the ticket. I believe this is one major way of forcing to the police to enforce the law and the citizens to experience that laws exist and are enforced. Anyway this is my two sense. Have a great day people.

When you have a chaff like Jay Ray Ram Allen of Massachusetts in office, what do you expect? How can you entrust responsibility into the hands of a ROGUE and a LIAR?

ACE IS WHAT THE BIBLE DECRIBES AS TOSSED TO AND FRO BY EVERY WIND. THIS ACE AND GEORGE ANDAH, HIJACCKED OCCUPY GHANA FROM THE YOUNG MEN WHO INITIALLY FORMED OCCUPY.

HE SUFFERS FROM A HUGE EGO PROBLEM AND ONLY PRETENDS TO BE WHAT HE IS NOT BECAUSE OF THE INFLUENCE OF THE CHURCH IN HIS LIFE.

HIS WIFE IS THE REASON WHY HE IS WHO HE IS TODAY AND TALKING RUBBISH ALL OVER THE PLACE. THAT WOMAN HAS BEEN THE ONLY STABLE FORCE IN THEIR HOME AND EARNS FAR MORE THAN HIM AND YET HE IS ALWAYS BRAGGING ON FACEBOOK ABOUT HIS WEALTH.

HIS HOUSE IS A MORTGAGE LOAN AND SO IS HIS APARTMENT.HE CAN TALK THIS WAY BECAUSE HIS WIFE IS THE ECOBANK COUNTRY MANAGER FOR GAMBIA .

MONEY STARTED COMING THEIR WAY ONLY RECENTLY IN 2011.

HE SHOULD REMEMBER THAT PRIDE GOES BEFORE A FALL.

HE TALKS TOO MUCH AND TOO LOOSLY . EVEN HIS SO CALLED CLOSE FRIENDS WORRY ABOUT HIS LOOSE TALK BUT ARE AFRAID TO ADVISE HIM BECAUSE OF HIS PRIDE, ARROGANCE AND QUICK TEMPER.

HI STAFF DONT LIKE HIM BUT THEY ALL PRETEND HE IS THE GREATEST BOSS OUT OF FEAR.

WHEN HE PRAYS HE SHOULD SAY SOME FOR HIS WIFE BECAUSE WITHOUT HER, HE IS NOTHING.
