ENACT MAJOR MAHAMA LAW, NOW!!!
PARLIAMENT MUST PASS A SWIFT LAW AGANST MOB LYNCHING IN GH. FOR YRS, I HAVE BEEN ADVOCATING AGAINST VIGILANTE JUSTICE ON THIS PLATFORM. I WAS ALMOST A VICTIM TO THIS BACK IN 2001 IN DANSOMAN LAST STOP BCOS A MOB SUSPECTED ME OF STEALING A CAR. YET, I LIVED 2 HOUSES DOWN THE STREET.... BUT NO ONE LISTENED. NOT EVEN OUR USELESS, GREEDY STEALING LEADERS. NOW, A MEMBER OF THE GAF HAS SUCCUMBED TO THIS FOOLISHNESS AND NOW PPL ARE UPSET. WHAT ABOUT THE OTHERS WHO WERE KILLED WITHOUT DUE COURSE OF LAW? GH CITIZENS SHOULD USE MAJOR MAHAMA'S TRAGIC CIRCUMSTANCE TO CAMPAIGN AGAINST MOB LYNCHINGS IN GH. THE WIFE COULD BE A SPOKEPERSON N DEDICATE HER TIME TO FORMING A NON PROFIT DEDICATED TOWARDS FIGHTING AGAINST MOB LYNCHINGS IN GH N OTHER AFRICAN NATIONS. I THINK THE FIRST N SECOND LADY AND ALL RELEVANT STAKEHOLDERS, POLTIICIANS, POLICE ETC SHOULD ALSO JOIN THE CAMPAIGN. I MYSELF HAVE BEEN ADVOCATING AGAINST MOB LYNCHING IN GH BUT TO NO AVAIL....LOOK AT THE POVERTY IN GH? LOOK AT THE POVERTY IN DENKYIRA OBUASI...WHAT DO U THINK DROVE THESE PPL TO KILL? WHY SHOULDNT AN ARM ROBBER HAVE THEIR DAY IN COURT? TIME TO CHANGE THINGS FAST...INACT THE MAJOR MAXWELL MAHAMA LAW AGAINST MOB LYNCHING. THOSE FOUND CULPERBLE MUST FACE THE LAW. IF U SUSPECT ANYONE OF STEALING ETC. ARREST THEM N CALL THE POLICE TO ARREST THEM. THIS IS WHAT CIVILIZED SOCIETIES DO...IMAGINE THE MANY INNOCENT PPL WHO HAVE BEEN KILLED AS A RESULT OF MOB LYNCHING IN GH? VERY SAD, TRAGIC AND INHUMANE....

Yes, they are hypocrites. Is it now that they see the need for laws against the mob? It was happening when you were in power and stealing our money.
You just cannot enact laws that will not work. Until the people start to trust the law enforcers and the judiciary, mob action will not end. Armed robbers attack people, rape their wives and daughters in front of husbands and sons, torture husband in front of wives and kids. When arrested, they are granted bail. The case goes to court and the judiciary take bribe and set the criminals free. Next time one is suspected of armed robbery, what do you expect the people to do? Definitely,the mob will take laws into their hands and would want to lynch the suspect. Any such law will not work until we see changes in the law enforcers and the judiciary.

That was bad but it started at Mills and Mahama's time when toilets and lorry stations were seized by NDC foot soldiers. That cycle needs to stop but stop blaming Akuffo Addo for everything. People are just revenging.

ISLAM allows Holy lies to be used to propagate Islam.It is called Taqqiyya. Read the following:
1)THE TRINITY
Christians are surprised to discover in Suras 5:119, 4:171 and 5:75-76 that the Trinity comprises God, Mary and Jesus. This thought is foreign to every Christian and the Bible, but no doubt finds its origin in the veneration of Mary as "The Mother of God" by the Catholic Church.
2)THE VIRGIN MARY
Christians read with surprise in Sura 19:28-29 that Mary, the mother of Jesus, was a sister of Aaron. Learned men of Islam, who are aware that between Miriam, the sister of Aaron, and Miriam or Mary, the mother of Jesus there is a gap of 1500 years, try to persuade us that Mary had a brother, who also happened to be an Aaron. We reject this possibility, because she is also described as the daughter of Imram (Sura 66:12), the Amram of Exodus 6:20. He was indeed the father of Aaron, Moses and Miriam. Besides that, Jelalood Deen has stated that Mary's mother was Hannah. The one who was mentioned in 1 Samuel, chapters 1-2, and who lived about a 1000 years before her "daughter".
All this is a hopeless mix-up of historical events and no argument will convince one that in fact the Quran is right and the Christian have changed their Bibles, as in fact claimed by the Muslims.
"The Gospel of James", another Apocryphal book, was the source of the report that as a girl, Mary lived in the Temple, receiving food from the Angels and that Joseph was chosen to be her husband by miraculous rods (Sura 3:35-36 and 42-47).
3)THE HOLY SPIRIT
Jesus is called the Spirit of God in the Quran. This could be tolerable in the light of Christian doctrine, but in Sura 61:6 we read:
"Jesus son of Mary said ...'I am indeed the messenger of God to you, conforming the Torah that is before me, and giving good tidings of a messenger who shall come after me, whose name shall be Ahmad.'"
This false concept has been refuted already in "Christians answer Muslims" p. 118.
4)THE MIRAJ
is the reported ascent of Mohammed to the seventh Heaven after a miraculous night journey from Mecca to Jerusalem on a "horse" called Buraq. This story is related to us in Sura 17. More detail is furnished in the "Mishkat". We can trace this story back to a fictitious book called the "Testament of Abraham"(B.C. 200), which was written in Egypt and then translated into Greek and Arabic.
5)THE CAVE OF SEVEN SLEEPERS
is a story related to us in Sura 18:9-26. It is not difficult to detect its striking resemblance to a book called the "Story of Martyrs" by Gregory of Tours. It is a legendary tale of Christians under persecution who fell asleep in a cave for 200 years. In the Quran, this period was prolonged to 309 years.

Anti-stealing and thievery laws needed. Did you say they exist? Ask John Mahama if they do? Because if they exist, then there is no need for anti-mob action law.

Ghana need a strong leadership who con enforce the law. The dead sentence law must be use on criminals like armed robbery, lynching, child trafficking and many others.

What we need are: 1) employment for idle youth so their hands are filled with work to do, not stones to throw; and a sense of belonging and a hopeful future. Idle hands are the devil's workshop;
2) Serious law enforcement protocols,which mean that if one reports a crime, the police will do something about prosecuting the offense, instead of taking a bribe and making a "foolish case" out of it. People will not feel they have no alternative but to take the law into their own hands;
3) A government that is actively involved in protecting its citizenry at all levels and putting their interests above all things. Once we have these, the people will not act lawlessly because they will have a stake in the success of the country and will have a future to look forward to.
