It is not wise for us to take the law into our hands and take certain actions. even if the captain was to be a robber as the thought..... they had no right both legally, socially and biblically to take his life. those who did that wont escape the purnishment of God even if the law dont deal with them.
its weakedness and evil to take life. those who did this are witches and wizards. God will bring judgement on them. its painful and hard to accertain. its not right and something must be done to stop these foolishness in the heart of men.

Point of correction: Assemblymen are not the President's appointees. They are voted for during Local Government Elections. What happened to the young handsome Captain is very sad. Proper investigation should be conducted to bring all those involved to book. My heart goes to the family.

Ghana now, no doubt is a Banana Republic. Nobody is safe. Not even the judiciary or military. The impunity is nauseating. I fear the future. Only God can save us now.

What kind of leaders are we having in this country? The delta force has climbed everyone including assembly men. Our country is becoming a banana ???? republic. Nana Addo does not have what it is to rule a country.

Am surprised you are linking the Presidency to the atrocities. Do a quick check and you would realise that like the Somanya riots the Assemblyman who caused the killing of the SOLDIER is an NDC man. The tugs who found themselves in the Assemblies during President Mahama's time. Loose talk. Better let us mourn with the bereaved family while the law catches up with the opinion leaders of the community, Denkyira Obuase.

Is the assembly man the police commander? He is the the first to be arrested from there then he is going to bring out the youth that he organize to this act.

Ghana has become a truely lawless country with the government without any clue about governing.The NPP and NDC have created indiiscipline populace with no rule and respect of the law.These people are just imitating the lawlessness of so called Delta Force and Invincible Forces created by Gbese Mantse Akufk Addo. The country is now paying a price. More to come.Ghana is not worth dying for.

Robbers ,theives and indeed criminals do not deserve mercy given the emotional and psychological haocs they visit on their victims
Nevertheless resorting to this level of vigilanteeism without the responsibility of reference to legitimate law process is despicable to ay the least
What informed the decision of the saaemblymen as we are being told beasts my understanding
How much investigations did they conduct on the deceased captain
Was his identity investigated and confirmed or otherwise
Commonsense and civil approach would expect the assemblymen to hand the suspect to the local police for further investigations
The loss of this young captain devastates me and must be an eye opener for the clarion call against mobocracy to Stop Now

citizens are harassed and killed by armed robbers,but stupid politicians and military high command will send soldiers whose up-keeping is borne by tax payers are rather sent to illegal mines (galamsey) operated by communist ukranian and russian citizens to provide them 24/7 max. security.your freeways are infested with bandits,criminality is all over ghana and you want the citizens stay aloof and suffer fool gladly.sad to say somebody's father, brother, uncle,cousin is dead but hey the town folks deserve security and peace if they've been harassed and maybe some might have lost their lives.capt mahama's family must sue ghana govt and the military high command becos their kinsman was sent to protect illegal business.its a sad and a big shame.he has no business doing at denkyira oboase,greed of his superiors and penchant for kickbacks has sent this gentleman to his grave before his time.

You are right. What kind of assignment was he on anyway? Probably something meaningless which has cost this young man his life.

These instant justice has been going on for years. Last year, my 15 year old cousin was lynched just like this for theft he never committed. The evil guys even cut off his dick first before killing him. Hopefully the death of Captain Mahama will draw the nation's attention to this evil act. May his soul rest in peace.

The Assemblymen for the So.anya Riots and the Denkyira Obuase are NDC thugs who doesnt know their left from right. The criteria for electing them at the time was loud mouth and ability to be violent and hostile towards the opposition. Now they are causing mayhem everywhere. The two Assemblyman should be incarcerated immediately.

From ceasing toilets to attacking Judges in court and now lynching suspects to the whims and caprice of NPPists and Nana Addo CAN NOT STOP IT FOR ALL DIE BE DIE.
The NPP planned to put Ghana into chaos if they had lost the 2016 Elections and their plan is "using them as lawless-power drank" people though they won the elections

its now high time for us Ghanaians to elect sound minded, intellectuals, literates, matures as our leaders and not just one reason or other. A criminal us suppose to be first save by assembly man or any leader in a community who will then report him to police and then thorough investigation will carry on to declare his guilty. Now we just choose our illiterate leaders and expecting them to act normal. its so pathetic for us Ghanaians to have such leaders among us.
