why do uk prime minister david cameron appointed such a character to ghana ? speak for itself, that there is no dignity in this country, hence deserve no respect.
This is a wake up call to all the leaders in this country to start thinking like human being and put their country as the no.1 priority and do everything possible to make the country work for her people.
GHANA COULD BE A MORE BETTER PLACE TO STAY than UK or any foreign land should our leaders stop thinking for themselfs alone and few cronies

When the masses talk about corruption in heist in the political league they play down their innocence, the Parliament house itself is full of rot believe me , God will strip them naked one by one. Shame on those claiming to be honorable which of course not worth it one bit.

If person produces a "diplomatic passport"and guarantees that a "daughter" will come along for a "2-week visit", and a "visitor's visa" is issued and the "daughter" decides to STAY after 2-weeks, that is a MISREPRESENTATION of visa APPLICATION!

That is FRAUDULENT, except to stupid and corrupt Ghanafolks!

I bet to differ from my senior learned friend who argues that the offence is overstaying and not Visa fraud. The statement of the applicant that influenced the issuing of the visa was different from the reality. The applicant lied to the embassy in order to secure the visa,' that she/he was going there for a specified number of days'. And that amount to a Visa Fraud.
The decision to prompt other embassies is solely diplomatic and therefore the UK Embassy owes no apology to anyone.
NB. Let's teach our people to do the right thing instead. The applicants could have applied for an extention yet they ignored.

As William Shakespeare once said, "the fault, dear Brutus, is in ourselves, not in our stars, that we are underlings". Whether as private citizens, or as Members of Parliament, or as Judges, Lawyers, Professors, Ghanaians almost always do the wrong things. Then when we are caught, we take umbrage! The High Commissioner is a senior civil servant for the government of the United Kingdom. The United Kingdom, thus far, is a member of the European Union. Unlike the typical Ghanaian, who WILL do the wrong thing and then expect to talk his or her way out of the consequences, these people in the EU not only keep records, but they are also more transparent. The letter which was apparently written by the High Commissioner, was reportedly written to the Speaker of Parliament. It was leaked. Any fool can threaten to sue, but suing is one thing, winning the suit is another thing altogether! The High Commissioner, is a diplomat and enjoys immunity. Once you clear that hurdle, you then have to deal with how this information came to be in the public domain. Then you have to deal with the facts of the case. Did these MPs possess Ghanaian diplomatic passports? We're they issued those passports solely because of their membership in the Ghana parliament? Did they use their diplomatic passports to obtain visas for themselves or their kin? Were the terms of the visas thus obtained, abused by the recipients? Was it right to notify other embassies of the chicanery that these MPs had perpetuated? The answer to this last question is "Yes", it was right, and the duty of the High Commissioner to let other embassies know what is going on. The actions of the High Commissioner was not at all "problematic".

Apologies for the typo error of 'bet' instead of 'beg'.
