Trust Rawlings to take unwarranted and uninvited advantage of the event to court affection from the army.
The soldier involved in this matter did very little to subdue the robbers as both their legs as well as their motorbike had been broken by the cation of the taxi driver. There was very little else that the robbers could have done after that except to continue to be stupidly firing aimlessly until they run out of bullets or the law enforcement officers arrived to take them away.
In any case, isnt it the regular job of soldiers to ensure or maintain the law and order and the security of the state? We can however thank this particular soldier for doing what 99% of his colleagues are not doing but are being paid for with our taxes every month.
As for Rawlings I think everyone should just simply ignore him. He should be ashamed at what his so-called revolution has done to the country.

I think the taxi driver deserves every ones commendation however, as would be expected, Mahama is heading towards spoiling it all by not only over-doing it, but also trying to outshine all other acts of appreciation which is deservedly going to the taxi-driver.
In the same way that Mahama and his govt will not find ingenious ways to create revenue for the state but will continue to resort to the cheap old-fashioned way of taxing the last pesewa out of the pay packets of the already badly paid citizens, he will also not do what he has to do to improve the working conditions of the security services so that the citizens will be better protected and safe but, he will resort to grandiose one-off acts of magnanimity to give the wrong and misplaced signal that he is kind and considerate.
The public should not be fooled. He is only doing this tom score political points with our money - not his money.
The many accounts of alleged and actual instances of massive corruption committed by members of his gang of political appointees and himself, points to the fact that the man is a greedy, mean and selfish man. He may fool some of the people but he surely cannot fool all the people including me, all the time.

A renowned international Petroleum expert has hinted Ghanaians should prepare for the worst Petroleum prices come 2017 where price of crude is expected to go to OVER $100 per barrel. This was in connection with the recent analysis that Ghanaians are among the few countries that are not enjoying the drastic fall ($33 per barrel world price now -Ghanaians buy it $170 now) in the world price of Crude.
According to him even the middle class in Ghana may find it difficult to afford if the world market price should go over $100 as expected in mid 2017.

This is a cheap stupid politics Mahama and his NDC are playing. The NDC is exploiting the situation for cheap political points. Mahama and his NDC crooks curb the armed robbery menace in Ghana and now want to tell Ghanaians they care about the serious armed robbery problems by giving a car to this bold taxi driver. This is cheap politics and tells you how weak and fake Mahama and his NDC are.
Maham lacks leadership qualities.

Yes they deserve national awards but what about Mr Martin Amidu who single handedly took state matter of stealing and looting to court and obtained judgement for Ghana?gh 51.2million cedis that was shared among NDC members including civil servants,do you know how many people who would be benefited from this loot?state of pretenders,Rawlings should also lead a crusade to get Woyome to pay back the money and all the corruption cases he's aware of,Obasanjo has done it for Nigeria by ditching his own political party for gross incompetence and corruption,Kufour should also ask himself if he would ve allowed this high level of corruption in his days?now that Mahama is saying the only persons colify to criticize him re those who ve been president before.

Great, Good bless you Mr. President.
Yes, excellent, but MARTIN AMIDU too deserves state recognition.
Don't ignore that any further.
FOR ONCE MAY BE, WE CAN AGREE WITHOUT MAKING IRONIC INFERENCES
give every Ghanaian a house for tolerating for so long your corrupt looting govt.
I knew it was coming. Propaganda government. Shame on u.
Ei, Ghana sika na yeese no saa yi?
I saw some pictures of the taxi driver with the Veep and I must say the Taxi driver looked more presentable than the Veep.The Veep looked like a napping Muslim who had just been awoken by some kids running through the house.
hahahahahahahaha. m'asre saa. eiii massa, why u murder the veep like that?
From which funds Mahama 's promise of building a house for this taxi driver comes from? Is it from the tax payers funds or his personal account? Useless man! You made your self a president because your are corrupt and can't ...

MAHAMA IS MORE THAN ARMED ROBBER, CAN YOU IMAGINE HOW MUCH HARUNAH HAS STOLEN FROM HIS MINISTRY?, VERY DISGUST
but move him from Ghana to USA buy him house there & money else the gangsters sub human rats will kill him.
Trust Rawlings to take unwarranted and uninvited advantage of the event to court affection from the army.
The soldier involved in this matter did very little to subdue the robbers as both their legs as well as their motorb ...

An excellent deed.
So this mahama knows the people of Ghana need houses to sleep in. And he only waits for occasions like this Hahaha what a joke country Ghana. Why have you neglected the affordable housing policy.
Amissah looks like a Zongolese in his Nima hovel.
Poor furniture, dirty surroundings!
Unpresentable, unpresidential!
This country is sick Ghana needs total deliverance Frm God.lets all turn frm our evil doing n turn to ALMIGHTY GOD
Ghana is sick n dz country needs God Almighty fr total deliverance. Lets all turn frm our sins n turn to God Almighty n surely he wil forgive us our sins.

God bless you President Mahama!
Is it his own house,l mean prez mahama`s house to the driver?
Well done driver. Thanks Mr president. The taxi driver is more than the word BRAVE. God was really at his side that day.
COURAGE IS NOT SOMTHING YOU SEE IN GHANA EVEY DAY WHERE CAWARDS ON OUR STREETS USUALLY LOOK THE OTHER WAY
Good news
What about the young woman who was almost killed. Also, the government must assist all victims of robbery and establish a reward system for all who help law enforcement officers in apprehending and prosecution robbers.
oh soo great congrats taxi driver
Who believe him
Fail promise upon fail promise
Has he filfil best farmer 2014 hse yet ?
As much as we all appreciate what the taxi driver did, we must be careful not to encourage vigilantism in our society. The law of the jungle is not helpful to any society.
massa for God sake.... Dont say that!!! Unless u r a robber or a thief!!! chai!!!
For robberies like this, there is always a lead or an insider who gives the robbers a clue. Also, house robberies, a tip off is always given. The Koala employees involved should be jailed for longer than even the armed robber ...

You are a big fool
I agree with you Ghanaman. Is the President going to give a house to everyone who will help to stop an arm robbery or catch an arm robber? He has to be careful not to create any precedent.
Fooooooool
You don't even know why you call him fool... The presidency behave like there haven't been to school.

Why don't equip the security forces with the money so they are able to protect Ghanaians instead of spending it on a house for him. I'm sure our hero would appreciate it even more.
His identity shouldn't have been disclosed, since is too late now, his family and himself need a serious protection, some gang members might be on the loose.
Ghanaians must be brave to boot out this useless Mahama and NDC out. Why given him a house . What this guy needs is modest replacement of his Taxi not a house. I am sorry this Mahama is a crook and hypocrite
What this guy need is modest replacement of his Taxi which Koala is going to do why Government jumping to give him a house. Waist bloody resources and encouraging greed
Propaganda mahama.
What, a house for a hero? This election year will be interesting. The police has taken a decision to reward the man. Koala, the company whose money nearly got stolen has also decided to reward the guy with a brand new car.The ...

What about the Girl who was shot.
THAT'S HER EMPLOYERS' AFFAIR AND GOODWILL.
Don't flex yourself on this.
Mahama will say he spent 900 trillion pounds to build a house for this man only for him to use the rest for his campaign.
Hope Mahama will give the Lady who was shot a House.

Mahama have to do something about the robbery in ghana it's getting out of hands

interesting policy
Building house for this man will put his life at risk unless the place where the house will be situated is not revealed to the public.
oh oh ..patriotic paa nei...kudos

He really deserves it
Is Mahama using his personal money or using Ghana government money
He should join the police service
