    Irrespective of the 20P change, the driver has commited murder and must be charged accordingly.

  • JB Mann 10 years ago

    Charge .. To Err Is Human

    THE MAN HAD ALL HIS LIFE IN FRONT OF HIM WHAT ASHAME

  • owusu 10 years ago

    To you it is a small change but maybe that is all that he has. The driver should be charged and punished to deter other drivers from behaving abnormally and use their brains

  • Abdul Fatao of Ahenkro 10 years ago

    Manslaughter, get the driver!!!

  • ORIGINAL OBTT 10 years ago

    IT'S BETTER TO PUT IT AS MANSLAUGHTER. LET'S WAIT AND SEE THE JUSTICE IN GHANA. THE COUTRY WITH THE MOTTO "FREEDOM AND JUSTICE" BUT JUSTICE IS ALWAYS DIFFICULT TO COME BY GHANAIANS

  • NO SURPRISE 10 years ago

    TRYING TO CHEAT FOR EVEN 20P.
    MURDER. BECAUSE HE KNEW A FALL FROM A RUNNING VEHICLE WOULD RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY THAT COULD LEAD TO DEATH.

  • Abra 10 years ago

    Some of the drivers and their mates charges anything they like and if you want to follow them you will do things beyond your control. But this driver and his mate needed to be disciplined

  • GHANA BOY IN SEATTLE 10 years ago

    NO SURPRSE OR WHATEVER YOUR NAME, YOU ARE THE MOST STUPID PERSON ON THIS SITE.

  • Before & After 10 years ago

    Rules don't work in Ghana. Trotro drivers and their mates take the laws into their own hands because some selfish policemen own those vehicles. MMT sounded right until corrupt management also started stealing....Oh Ghana!

  • CORNEY 10 years ago

    I wonder why the police are polishing the story to help that wicked driver instead of detaining him and charge him with at least manslaughter.

    How can they say simply that the driver decided to move the car when it is clea ...

    NDC wants to make every body poor so that they can bribe for votes. That is the result.

  • Sankofabrassband 10 years ago

    The driver and his mate should be hanged by their balls. Why couldn't he resolve the issue with the deceased before moving his vehicle. The commercial driver always think commuters should pay extra more fare so their can use ...

    Ooo ghana now life is so hard that people die over 20 peswas

  • LAGOS 10 years ago

    20 pesewas is not the issue.
    The issue is honesty.
    The driver is a thief.
    He should have returned the man's money, even if it was 1 pesewa.

    It was up to the man to say "keep it".

    Some of you are so dumb, no principle ...

    damn poverty.

  • Johnny 10 years ago

    Go to Europe & see how people over there demand their change even if its 1cent.Your mindset is just like the Daily Guide reporter,who doesn't value money but live in a poor environment as a church mouse.

  • peaceful citizen 10 years ago

  • Mamley 10 years ago

    I know Razak very well, and he is not the type to fight over money not to even talk of 20p. God knows best. RIP Zak.

  • SCHEMER 10 years ago

    Whatever the reason, the driver should have resolved the issue with the guy before moving the vehicle. More so, should have stopped the moment he saw the guy hanging on to the mirror. He is guilty of murder.

    Tom: I found twenty cents on the sidewalk.

    Drivers and their mate do not respect passengers. The only time the beg passengers is when they are loading their vehicles with passengers. The driver and his mate should be jointly charged for murder.

    Murder charge is possible. Prosecution only need to prove that the driver new that the deceased was hanging on his vehicle.

    As has been said already, its not about 20p.Its about dishonesty on the part of the driver and the passenger having the right to demand his change. The driver needs to be penalised. However it is not worth it to hang on a veh ...
