Anybody knows you hear the name Mahama and you know some sophisticated fishy business or crime is being committed using various institutions as their camouflage cover . You listen to the various videos and you may even hear the gunshots of the captain shooting at the people but no where was he shouting as required to identify himself. Because the people are Akans its easier to blame them instead of finding out the truth. The story doesnt add up , anyone who has taken the time to travel around most pats of the Central region will observe even in the middle of the night even white girls , tourists Europeans and other foreigners walking alone or roaming around unaccompanied and nothing ever happens to them . But then again every once in a while we hear of some white-man being killed because of some gold deal. Lynching is wrong but this has elements of self defense and over reactions to it, remember he fired his gun at the people before with courage they disarmed him . It would have been better if they had handed him over to the police but we all know he would have paid a bribe and those who had apprehended him would have been languishing in jail . There can be no peace without the assurance of justice. On this forum we notice all the lying hypocrites who have come out to condemn the town but fail to notice the crimes committed like corruption , nepotism , incompetence etc. A sin is a sin and a crime a crime , why turn a blind eye to corruption and yet talk shit about one lynch. Police stations are being burned to the ground and now most security agency personnel are scared and shitting in their pants because soon the people will arise. Npp , Ndc and most of the media are in a hype propaganda mode to blame the innocent people of the town rather than properly look at the suspicious activities of the captain . First he was jogging alone with a gun in plain sight . Rather than identify himself chose to engage in shooting at the residents , a sign of substandard training or criminal intent . He was on duty and an officer but had no other lower ranking soldiers accompanying him , was he deployed there to be on holiday so could go jogging around ? Never trust these security forces especially the army as they are involved in all kinds of criminal activity and always have sophisticated propaganda lies to make it appear they did nothing wrong. A wise man once said its stupidity to know the truth but chose to believe the lie.

The woman who made the phone call to the assemblyman according to DCOP why is she left off the hook. She is also culpable of this horrendous act of barbarism.

Heiiii. Idiots dey ghanaoo. You can support the killers but believe me they will pay for what they did. No human has the right to kill another even if that person is an armed robber which the captain was not.ok?

So far we have not heard about the arrest of none of the women who initiated the killing. These Women also need to be brought to Justice. Everybody acted a fool that day. No exemption to the Law.

No, the women did nothing wrong. In fact, what they did is what's expected from every right thinking human. It is the assembly man who should be blamed. He should have rather found the identity first.
But what beat my mind is that, why didn't the soldier try to call the rest of the troops to give him a back up? No body should tell me that he couldn't have had the space to do that. Military men in battle fields have a way of communicating when they are under attack.

An Army officer jogging for 20km alone? Are the police telling us that Captain was going to jog carrying snails? or he bought the snails for a girlfriend to cook and this infuriated the guys in the town? There is something that we don't known. All the same the action was barbaric and it shouldn't have happened when we have chief and elders in the town. Captain, Damerifa!

I sincerely empathize with capt. Mahama's family but the question is ' why did he jog with a pistol on him?'
What prompted him to carry a weapon? The investigators need to clarify this. We are not dummies. Who own the mining company he was guarding? Don't tell me it is the chinese. In china even if I have a trillion dollar company, the chinese gov't will not throw out a single soldier to protect me. Ghana should stop the foolishness that had led to the slave trade. Those light skin people are not gods. Is it not illigal to mine from that forest reserve? How did the chinese secure the millitary protection? This is what prompts me to enquire who owns the mining company.

You are an idiot. Who on earth jogs carrying a weapon? Do u make sense to your girlfriend. Don't even start with me. An educated illiterate. Why should the millitary even have to guard miners? This is very very stupid in the first place. Is Ghana the only place that mining is done?
If the activity is not against the law why do they need the millitary as guards?

Tatales robbery no one cares to know.lt nearly took the Togo policy come and rescue our own people in distress.
Police were not answering calls and when they answered the never appeared.

Its only taking money on the high ways.
Typical example is this inspector Ayman at asankare barrier at nsawam.Who charges between 100 and 200 and if you are unable he will ask you to do mtn money.

The truth is they too inhumane, coz even he was an armed robber and is Caught this shouldn't have been the way they react. Me I think is a plan thing to eradicate the office in other to operate their illegal mining successfully. So therefore I think they should be maltreated by the army but not lol??

To uphold national security, Nana Akufo Addo and NPP must face retributive justice by the military. National security is a measurable state of the capability of a nation to overcome the multi-dimensional threats to the apparent well-being of its people and its survival as a nation-state at any given time, by balancing all instruments of state policy through governance. As Ghanaians have decided to take a common direction to promote national development others thugs collectively known as NPP sympathizers with savage mentality strategized to create post electoral chaos since the election, attacking citizens who do not share their views, either robbing them of their properties, and cruelly lynching and slaughtering law enforcing personnels like Captain Maxwell Adam Mahama; just because they grabbed power through the lies of Nana Akufo Addo and his “all die be die” strategy and 419 schemes.

Following the official declaration of the last presidential electoral results, Nana Akufo Addo through his NPP thugs has been engaged in acts of terrorism and sabotage of the State and undermining personal security the citizens of Ghana. Security threats involve not only conventional foes such as other nation-states but also violent non-state actors; and it is sad to state here that in the case of Ghana, NPP can be categorized as non-state violent political group. National security is best described as a capacity to control those domestic and foreign conditions that the public opinion of a given community believes necessary to enjoy its own self-determination, prosperity and wellbeing.

It is time that Nana becomes aware that national security is the protection of citizens and territory from physical attacks which are considered as essential to the fundamental values and the vitality of the State. In other words, national security is the ability of Government to preserve the nation's physical integrity and territory, to maintain the survival of the State through the use of appropriate legal power to contain threats by using counterintelligence services to protect the nation from internal threats from NPP. Nana must also be aware that political security is about the stability of the social order. National security is also a blend of political resilience and maturity; and in this post-election era in Ghana, upon all the provocations from the main losing party NPP, Ghanaians from different political walks appear to uphold resilience, maturity and political security by not reacting to the provocation.

The comportment of Akufo Addo and that of his thugs is a threat to national security, thus retributive justice must be applied by the military in order to send a message to Nana that they should not repeat those violent behaviors again. When a chronic offender like Nana Akufo Addo breaks the law, he thereby forfeits his right to play key role in Ghana politics, and justice requires that he is arrested by the military and punished accordingly and that his NPP party must be classified as a non-state actor that undermines national security, so it must be banned definitely from Ghana politics or at least be classified as such. The classical definition of retributive justice embraces the idea that the amount of punishment must be proportionate to the amount of harm caused by the offence. An alternative to retributive justice consists of declaring the transgressor NPP and Akufo Addo as an outlawed gang which we can no more tolerate in Ghana.

This report is inaccurate. When the Assemblyman first came to see the Captain, it is alleged that, he went to lodge a complaint with the Police. What did the Police do? Why didn't the Assemblyman take the Captain (alleged armed robber) to the police station?
It is also alleged that, from his phone, he wanted to either call his WO, or show them his own pictures in uniform, but this was halted by the mob, who snatched his phone. It is also alleged that he used his service issued pistol, gave warning shots, and later lodged into a guy's thigh, who was picked to the hospital.
Where was the Assemblyman during all this period? The dots are not adding up here at all.
If this is not a premeditated murder, then what else do we name this? The DCE alleges that, he is not aware of a Military Base in his jurisdiction. And that, Mahama was there to protect illegal galamsey workers. Is this the truth? When was a meeting heard, and inhabitants requested fir their seized properties to be released? I personally do not buy this half cooked report. A better job needs to be done.
