When Death Makes You Think Aloud

For the first time in the historic event of our hard earned country ,we are faced with decisions on what to do today and what to avoid tomorrow.

May those innocent lives that has suffered injustice of public mob rest in perfect peace.

The untimely death of Capt. Max Adams Mahama has put many of us to ask if indeed Ghana has grown to the level where it's citizens understand the rule of law!

There has always been public education by the police to avoid such unwarranted barbaric act ,yet our pains and anger fails us the citizens anytime such incidence surface.

Will such heinous crime stop today after what we all consider as painful.

Many of such nefarious boorish incidents has happen at the blind side our world.

Could it be that we have lost trust in the criminal justice of the citizenry.

Are we sad for the soldier because of his ,handsomeness, his family ,his profession or because of his rank as captain in the reputable institution or because as a nation we are tired of such uncouth acts of the citizens.

Our sight today even tastes what our tongue should have but we have still not noticed the direction our foot travel.

What then is the remedy to curb such fiendish infelicitous act of the natives of our nation.

What assurance is our legal system going to provide us to ensure that our ears will not hear for sorrow to engulf the many families and us all again.

Hmmmm!!!! My God.
It could have been me.
It could have been you.
Who is safe from today?
May their souls rest in perfect peace.
Please pardon me to rest my pen till we meet again.
