    This money as damages for causing deformity is too small. I hope subsequently the Ghana Armed Forces and its personnel will face similar fate

    A former Headteacher has been arrested for taking salaries he didn't work for; but MPs took double Salaries and are walking freely. The irony is that it is the same MPs who asked for his arrest. Hmmmm! God is watching.

    Which God is watching, and what is he going to do after he finish watching?

    It long overdue since he started watching.

    If there are injustice in the system, we have to deal with it.

    What has this to do with Godfred Dame and Akuffo Dampare?
