What is going on in Ghana? This unGhanaian, inhumane, evil and insane thing is becoming a trend for some ***barred word***. Why do you take someone's life because they have decided to part ways with you? Is it due to overdependence, lack of confidence, low self esteem or hopelesness? people need to understand that having a relationship with someone does not mean you own them and that you can take their lives or get rid of them when you want. I hpe they rot in Jail and everlasting life in hell fire. I am very peeved.
