Would have been beneficial and noble if Nana Oye Lithur, Minister for Gender, Children and Social Protection, had spent some of her "money" she used for that "Plush" birthday party to help this poor child. Priorities eh.

I couldn`t stop shedding tears for this young boy who could have been any one`s child.I think the parents who consistently refused aid are now relieved.

IS ISLAM A RELIGION OF PEACE?.If Muslims have problems with traditional authorities in Tafo, why did they attack Christian churches. Mahama sees all these yet he will not condemn them. The last time, Muslims burnt down a christian Mission house in Atebubu and that one too he did not condemn it. Muslims went on demonstration in Takoradi for equal right in Christian schools and that one attracted condemnation from Mahama against Christian missionary schools. Why is it so? Is it because Mahama sees christians as too docile to be respected?

We are a nation of people who gives little value to life.We never act,but react most of the time,we never try to prevent eventualities,but, act after it is too late.So our leaders don't know that something like cancer can happen in Ghana,and we need to try and prevent it?After this boy came to the headlines,even the President was ready to help send him to South Africa.Almost sixty years of political independence we don't have a hospital equipped to deal with such cases.Isn't it a shame?May his young soul rest in peace.

Today, just pass by the independent square and you will see school children park in line , ask what are they doing. the answer is, we are preparing for our independent day parade.Ghana has by-passed the era of slavery. for three good weeks to the date. Ghanaian children have to stand on parade and leave the class room for who to learn. the people who send them there have their children schooling outside Ghana. what a shame and slavery are we in today.today independent day, Ghanaian s are drinking dirty water and paying for paracetamol tablet and we call it a good thing.

Where were the so-called Pastors/Men of God? Didn't they hear the story OR was it not revealed to them? Scavengers who feed on unsuspecting people's tithe's and offerings to ENRICH themselves to make a living instead of doing productive, honest and hard work like the rest of us to make a living! Not a single one of them could help this innocent boy? They are all the same - absolutely no difference - simply SCAVENGERS! They can embellish themselves with whatever titles they like OR use people's monies in whatever ways they like to seem to appear legitimate - they are all the same! The value is still the same - SCAVENGERS! A nation is much much much much better off without such SCOUNGERS. Hopeless and useless - they cannot help people in need!

I think the Cancer boy "wished" as you correctly said in the heading, or "requested" to sit in a plane. It was unlikely that he "demanded" to do so as you said in the body of the report. Watch your verbs.

We ought to give more attention to kids' cancer. I notice we don't have a Children's Hospital in Ghana that would concentrate on dealing with the special cases of kids' ailments and vulnerabilities.

I wish some Regional Medical Facility in Ghana would closely team up with one of the leading Children's Hospitals in the USA to help train our Medical Staff and share information on Children's special medical needs.

St. Jude's Research Hospital outfit, Boston Children's Hospital, Washington D.C. Children's Hospital, and the Shriners Children's Hospital Complex, headquartered in Florida, in the USA, could all be good Hospitals and Research Complexes to tie aprons with on Children's Cancer treatment, for example. They cater for other Children's trauma as well.

Our Middle Income Status as a Nation must not be without such special attention to our Children's needs. With a relatively more vibrant immune system, Children are believed to have greater chances of surviving Cancer, if the proper Medical attention is provided, and often, the cost is not as massive as in Adults.

So, our Government and some NGO's could take up the challenge to lead in this area.

Long Live Ghana!!!

Although it will be denied, but anyone that lives close to these bases are putting their lives at risk. They will tell you it has not been proven. But ask them why they don't erect them in the middle of London, Paris, Frankfurt, New York etc? Black live is worth nothing as far as they're concerned.

If you have lived 10/50 meters from these bases, or your child has been exposed to one of these for at least 5 years, you MUST go for a cancer test and take your child with you as soon as possible. I have seen pictures of this killers built in a school premises!
