This guy Kombian seems to dictate the pace of the gae for GHANA Police Service?. Why is this guy so important in our society for the ills he has visited upon Ghanaians yet the security service is afraid of him? He is in fact worshipped by Society, more valued than a top publich official Why must this be so?. Sentence to death means so ; what is the big deal then, Ghana Police Service?
why not poison him to end all the nonesense
mahama is harder than kombian. we pay $10 million a month to mahama's ameri, day light robbery! mahama can break a higher security prison
That is my question too. How long has it been since he was sentenced? They will keep him there and then eventually come tell us he escaped to be a menace to society again. It's not as if the society doesn't have enough of such people roaming the streets already. Besides, the economic hardship, we can't be terrorized in our own country by such criminals. God help us...
If he was sentenced to death why is he still alive?
