Ghanaian minister advocates caution

While nderry is getting all over himself because a Ghanaian paper refered to the killings of Ghanaians in the Gambia as "jammenocide", the Ghanaian minister of the Interior: Hon. Kwamena Bartels is cautioning his countrymen to exercise patience since in his words:
“Not that the Government is quiet but we have to get some hard facts before we proceed and that is why we are using diplomacy to approach the case”, he said.

The nation of Ghana has no hard facts in the case. They are using diplomacy to get to the facts behind the killings. That in layman's term means...working with the authorities in the Gambia to investigate. Does it help the Ghanaian investigators if journalist without any shred of evidence try, judge and convict the sitting head of state of the nation whose help they need to solve this case.

Reading through the piece, I am kinda baffle at this admission by the Ghanaian interior minister:
The MP for Ablekuma North said the government did not even know the actual number of people who had died and their real identities since there were no records to prove that.

So the 44 people... a number bandied around is not even ascertained by the Ghanaian authorities. For all we know the number could be far less or greater than 44. I am betting lower.

Most of the people pointing a finger at Yahya Jammeh based their allegations on the words of an eye witness and the narratives of nderry mbai's police source: sekouba Jadama. In the case of the former, the interior minister made it sound like a classic he said, they said situation in this utterances:
He said they had not laid hands on any evidence just yet and that what an eyewitness was saying over here in Ghana was different from the position of the Gambians.

It is prudent that people opposed to Yahya Jammeh's regime, take caution and not get all excited as if this will spell doom for it. Unless someone can provide evidence that Yahya participated or ordered the killings, then it is save to say that in a court of law he isn't going to get convicted. Public opinion (especially in Ghana) is another thing.

I will conclude with this cautionary statement the Ghanaian interior minister made:
He continued that since the government had no evidence, there was no way they could attack a President of a sovereign country. “You can’t take any action when you don’t have your facts”, he stressed.

Did you catch that nderry? ... FACTS. I am not condoning the murder of innocent people, but I refuse to tag someone a murderer without any evidence, save for my disdain for his authoritarian rule. Granted Yahya is the head of state, but since when do we place all the crimes perpetrated in a country on its head of state without direct evidence.
