Their president died on Tuesday, but that's not going to destabilize the country...
When you lead with such a bold-faced lie, I'm not even going to read the rest of what you say.
Ghana: Kantamanto Now War Zone
Quote:The burnt Kantamanto market in Accra was turned into a near war zone, when the traders engaged police personnel detailed to secure the property and lives at the scene in a tussle.
The area has since been declared a crime scene.
Fire razed through the market on Sunday morning, reducing the place to 'Ground Zero' status, but the traders are adamant to relocate to a new market proposed by the Accra Metropolitan Assembly (AMA).
The traders, who besieged the place on suspicion and rumours making the rounds that the city authorities had teamed up with the police to forcefully evict them from the market and sell off the place to a Chinese investor, were repelled with rubber bullets and tears gas.
The aggrieved traders and hawkers besieged the market premises shouting and wailing, and vehemently protesting bent on preventing the AMA from allegedly taking the land that gives them their daily bread.
The crowd was so charged that even journalists were not spared of assaults.

just know......... that even though i disagree with you on practically everything.......... i do respect your position as an educated right winger
now address what i said....
Just read what you're siting! A marketplace turned into a NEAR war zone... it's been declared a crime scene...
Fuck me... the same thing could be said about South Central LA from time to time... it doesn't equate to the country being at civil war! This is a dispute about moving a MARKET, not a civil war... WOW! I'm not going to engage with such dishonesty.
