The Member of Parliament for Upper Denkyira West, Samuel Nsowa-Djan, has called on the Minister of Defence, Dominic Nitiwul, and Chief of Defence Staff (CDS) Major General Obed Akwa to call some soldiers deployed to Denkyira-Obuasi in the Central Region to search for killers of Captain Maxwell A. Mahama, to order.

Captain Mahama was lynched by irate youth of the community on suspicion that he was an armed robber after a group of residents from whom he asked for directions during a Monday dawn jogging session spotted a pistol on him.

The community on Tuesday 30 May turned into a ghost town as residents fled from soldiers sent there to investigate the circumstances leading to the murder of their colleague. Reports said the soldiers were allegedly arresting and beating up residents.
Reacting to the development on 12Live on Class91.3FM, Mr Nsowa-Djan appealed to the soldiers to operate within the remit of the law. He was of the opinion that the situation could escalate if the youth of the town strike back at the soldiers.

Speaking to Jonas Ofori-Yeboah, the lawmaker, who disclosed he was on his way to his constituency to ascertain the facts for himself, said: “According to sources, over 30 people have been arrested including women but I can’t confirm it. But just now, I’ve been told that a lame man has been arrested and molested and when a situation of this nature happens, it is also going to lead to another problem.

“What the community did is very bad and I condemn it, but the way the military is also taking the issue I think it’s a whole lot. The community I’m told is now virtually empty. They have fled to the neighbouring communities and their farms and other places. So I’m appealing to the military, the Minister of Defence, and Chief of Defence Staff to call his people to order because if the people are to retaliate, the end result will be very bad.”
wait I'm not understanding dis one... If the people Retaliate?? Against who? Army?? God I love naija

te author=nkemdi89 post=57031175]That's why a pistol is a primary weapon and need to be concealed at all time, its very wrong to display it especially when you are not on duty, its so unfortunate a senior officer like him will exhibit such height of negligence. Jungle justice is very bad but we should try at all cost to avoid circumstances that could arouse suspicion and fear especially among the civilian populace who have result in protecting themselves due to failure of our security agencies to swiftly respond in emergency situations.[/quote]

The id!ot is still threatening the military.

Anyways, it's Ghana. The country of charcoal-black brains. Makydebbie, a charcoal-black pvssy, can testify.
Imagine a fool from a useless zoo full of charcoal ugly smelly baboons talking trash about Ghana.
Foolish charcoal slowpoke from a useless terrorism infested zoo like nigeria talking when humans are talking.
You fools die like pigs so don't talk ill about people from a country far better than yours.

But why are Ghanaian force Men so foolish? It's only in Ghana that police will want to go and arest a renowned armed rubber or scarmer with just a baton or talk through, and the army was was with a gun still trying to prove to the mob that he is not a rubber. Foolishness is when you take a lady to a Suya spot, you bought some Suya for her while she is consuming the suya and you ate busy eating the onions. Rest in peace but a Niaja army can't be as dull as that.

you are highly stupid
Soldiers are under not supposed to use their weapons on civilians
Even though at the extreme end, he pulled his weapon on a few people before he was over powered by the crowd

It was barbaric and the community will pay a price for their actions

Hmmmm. There is much more to this story abeg. I smell lies.
The soldier was armed with a service pistol, he declared that he is a soldier, yet ordinary civilians were bold enough to lay hands on him without trying to verify his story In this Africa??.??. Na lie!!!!!!

Anyway, if this was Nigeria, residents of that street had better relocate permanently and forget even their buildings.
because the Odi massacre will be a child's play compared with what will go down on that steeet. To lynch a commissioned officer of the NA like a common criminal....... By civilians...............hmmmm............
So much blood will flow. The entire street is likely to be razed to the ground

Valid points there.
He should have had his id. Theres no way they wouldn't stop if they saw an id. He should have shot to scare them n then taken to heels. I wouldnt blame the residents for being suspicious but i blame them for carrying out jungle justice. I mean the army barrack or camp(or whatever) was said to be in the area, they could have easily dragged him there and all would have been settled.
Its just a pity seeing the fine man like that.
