    What a foolish judge! Is that how much the life of a human being and his dignity are worth? Would the judge have been happy with such a judgement if the victims were his children?

    After 4 long years you are now admitting that the NPP government and its state apparatus are guilty.

    The worse thing though is to value person's life at a party Ghc45,000.

    Sheer wickedness. God will punish the NPP, the ...

    Only a wicked AG will claim that the shots that killed the people emanated from the among the crowd

    My advice is no one shd sacrifice his life for any politician it is not worth it.Rawlings,Kufour,Atta Mills, Mahama and Akuffo Addo did not sacrifice their children so why allow them to contract you to fight for them?

    I thought they said all these victims are armed robbers, that's why they were shot, let have petty for our own fellow Ghanaian's, Oh my country called Ghana. One day we shall tell our story.

    Don't allow others to have pity on your life when you are dead. Your life is worth more than GHC45,000 to your parents,friends and school mates.Avoid ppl who will invite you to engage in political violence.

    Finally the Judge has ruled on this case. But it took so long for the justice system to make a ruling and the value of life for an individual Ghanaian was lowered to ghs45,000. Oh life!!!

    What a foolush judge? What is 45k in Ghana now.

    You see why Anni-Yebiah and his team will surely face karma soon.

    These judges end up taking chicken, goats, monies and yams as bribes.

  • K.B 2 years ago

    So where are the perpetrators who commit the crime, NDC don't sign any peace document.

  • Jimbo 2 years ago

    So this case was in court. In that case why is NDC making so much noise that the government was not doing anything about it? Too much unnecessary noise overtaking the little available space.

  • Kwame 2 years ago

    The perpetrators should be found and given the requisite punishment.

  • Achakanapaya 2 years ago

    The award is too paltry.

  • John Doe 2 years ago

    What an insult? 270K what? Is that for one person or all of them? Injustice at the highest height. But the question is! Why the armed robbers now compensated?Npp never again

  • Batuta 2 years ago

    The Courts should not be compensating people who suffer as a result of thuggery. Drunkmani Mahama and Asiedu Nketia should rather be those who should compensate them. Don't embolden NDC hooligans with such rulings.

    @batuta May you and the judge face the same situation in Jesus name Amen
