She should not be worried. After all they will come back but Capt Mahama's sons father, that her brothers killed will never ever come back. Capt Mahama also has kids who are now orphans.

This poor girl's mother poured petrol and lit a match to burn the late captain Mahama after raising the alarm that he is an armed robber. Now that she realizes she has her life to protect she has scooted nut she will be arrested and hanged till her miserable life departs. Those who have nothing to hide don't run away they have God to protect they and their household.

The Chiefs and the local authorities, the media, etc should encourage the people go back home. What happened was a disaster and I hope the people themselves and indeed, all of us learn from this. The Captain's must not be in vain, may his soul rest in peace.

Waa look oo. Just because of the callousness of a bunch of irresponsible adults, a whole community including innocent children are suffering. I guess this child might not have even eaten anything. May the Lord have mercy

Very sad. Now innocent kids are the ones suffering. The wicked and selfish adults committed this senseless act, never stopped and think about the consequences and when its backfired, they run and leave the innocent kids to suffer. They boldly killed Captain Mahama like animals thirsty for blood just because he had a gun, but their coward asses vanished after realizing their stupidity. Stupid villagers.

Civil society cannot solve problems of this brutal murder being nice to a city or district of backward people. Ghana's military in the area should give elders of Obuasi Denkyira a 7-day period to list names of all who planned and partook in the murder or suffer when the city/town is burnt to the ground for its failure. For those who think this is a rash or irrational suggestion or solution, I take you back to a time past when God, our creator, could not deal with the evils of Sodom and Gomorrah and could not find 10 good souls and had to destroy the city. Is anyone among us more compassionate, more forgiving or loving than the Almighty God? Here in Obuasi Denkyira, the town's elders allowed evil to become a norm because of normalization of terror by the NPP administration of Akufo-Addo. And if the town cannot cleanse itself by giving up names of the planners and executioners then the town/city cannot and must not be allowed to exist; nothing good will come out of Obuasi Denkyira if they cannot write this wrong.

"Kweku trouble" how could you say that? The girl is traumatised by what has happened to her family, not knowing where this person will be taking her and you label her "potential killer"? because she's got "Denkyira blood. Words are powerful and one must know what to say to another person. May the soul of Captain, rest in peace and may his love ones find a place in their heart to forgive these killers. Captain I salute you, rest in peace

I agree. The minister responsible for children's welfare should step in now and take care of the abandoned children. In any civilized society, the parents would lose custody of their children for good. The children should not be made to pay for the crimes of their parents. I feel very bad for this kid.

the minister of youth can not look after his own kids how can he look after some one's kids? No institution work in Ghana. The entire continent is ruled by selfish, corrupted, greedy politicians. they care for only their stomach unlike the white politicians who help their citizens provides them water, food, shelter, and clothes. All Africa leaders are incompetent they don't know what they are doing. Where is the minister of youth? Forget it.
