They threatened the police, the soldiers, and the judges and also threatened a citizen with a gun they claimed is licensed. Ghana has become a cheap and scary country. Very very sad and scary to live in Ghana. This guys and their father owusu Bempah should be in Jail. Ghana paaa..This guys and their father don't respect anyone in Ghana including the military, police, parliamentarians, ministers, and the President himself. Very very sad paaa
Good work by police. No matter the status of a person in the society if he goes against the law, the law must take its course. How could a man supposed to preach the message of peace be associated with assault?
THE BATTLE IS STIL, THE LORDS'
All those who shamefully stood against the will of God and brought Nana Addo shall meet their judgement here!! The God of Mahama reigns
