After the first news broke and people just could not find a way to digest it, it seems we have a mini pandemic on hand.
According to new reports, a lady from Tema is the latest suspected to have left the country to join ISIS. According to National Security operatives, the lady, identified as Shakira Mohammed, hails from the Northern parts of the country.
Over the past few days Ghanaians have been trying to digest the constipation inducing news that about ten of our nationals have eloped to join the Islamic State (IS) terrorist group.
For most people it is a shock that cannot be measured. A lot of people are trying to come to terms with how anyone would decide to up from their home and leave to join a group that is so self evidently callous. It would take a level of unprecedented denial for anyone to deny that ISIS is brutal, so for Ghanaians we cannot process how anyone could willingly join them.
