OTHER NON-EWE GUYS THAT SURVIVED THE DEATH SQUAD AND KILLING SPREE FROM THE HANDS OF THE EWES(THESE ORIGINAL APKETESHIE DISTILLERS, GENETIC THIEVES and CASSAVA BUSH FARMERS) WERE SIMPLY GAMED TO MILK GHANA INTO SUBMISSION THEN LATER FLEE THE COUNTRY WHICH THEY ALL DID ANYWAY!

When I was a graduate student at Princeton, in my first year, I visited Bronx where my sister was living in the same apartment complex with Prof Kofi Awoonor. At the time, he was lecturing part time at Columbia and pursuing his final ph.d. dissertation.
What I remember about him is that he would often speak FANTI to my sister encouraging her to be closer to his wife rather than the other gullible, gossipy Ghanaians in the same complex because he found my sister articulate and educated. I spoke often with him in Fanti and he was full of excitement whenever Ghana came up. Even at that time he did not look that old; I am surprised that he was 78. May he rest in peace - those who knew him up close really considered him classy and he fitted into many Ghanaian ethnic groups because he spoke so many Ghana languages.... it was always difficult to pin him as an Ewe. His English was nothing like an ewe accent!!!
Folks - Kofi was no tribalist. He might have been an Ewe nationalist. I found him more Ghanaian than most people; I can say for a fact that he was not ewe-phobic, if there is such a thing!!

That is the mistake we make; refusing to speak our minds and saying it like it is. But I can understand why many refuse to do so. Because on this same page, we had Kojo T making senseless accusation and turning a tragedy into tribalism. But many of those under Kojo T's article supporting him will come here and insult Ahoofe.
Ahoofe is an idiot just like Kojo T. Ahoofe was not brought up well. And so I was not shocked to read that his father is even worse than him. It is a case of "Like Father like son" Any Akan who does not know this "never speak ill of the dead" is an idiot, and Ahoofe is no exemption.
Ahoofe, you are a MORON. How you wish one of your 20 million books you talk so dearly about them would be cited as "This earth, my brother." You better turn your life around or your students might one day come to piss on you on your deathbed.

Nyansasem, your point on that Kojo T is understandable. I've just read Kojo T's equally shameful and disgusting piece. Both Kojo T and Ahoofe should be condemned in equal measure. How on earth fellow Ghanaians could turn the death of Professor Kofi Awoonor into tribal slugfest is beyond me.
Ahoofe has crossed the line of human decency with his subtle lines of champagne-popping and dancing-on-the-grave vitriol. This shows his hateful and vindictive attitude. Ghanaians don't speak ill of the dead; not too soon after they've passed anyway. Decent people can only feel a human sympathy for his family who have lost someone great.
Regardless of Professor Kofi Awoonor's politics, which people have the right to disagree with, his brilliant books and poems broke through ethnic/tribal walls of Ghana.
Below is my tribute to Professor Awoonor with one of his poems:
The Journey Beyond- Kofi Awoonor
The bowling cry through door
posts carrying boiling pots
ready for the feasters.
Kutsiami the benevolent boatman;
When I come to the river shore
please ferry me across
I do not have on my cloth-end
the price of your stewardship.

I often read your pieces because they carry a lot of wisdom and facts. This is clearly an exception and unlike the Doc OK I know. Quite a shameful and heartless piece. The analyses you have made rather makes you tribalistic and a divisionist. If Prof Awoonor chose to see himself first as an Ewe and Secondly as a Ghana it doesn't make him tribal centred at all...consider this; an someone saying he considers himself as an African first and secondly a Ghana. Does this statement imply that he/she is not patriotic...Your conclusion is farfetched and to be blunt does not make sense. It rather exposes the way you think...this piece is really an insensitive one

I was in my teens and early twenties when the coup period began. The reasons for the AFRC and PNDC coup was that corruption was rampant. Many were killed including 3 former heads of state and senior military officers in govt without fair trials. Market women were whipped and their wares taken. These were the goods they sold to see their families through. The JJ lead army brutally beat, shot, maimed and kill lots of the citizenry. Three high court judges were abducted from their homes and brutally and cowardly murdered by the instructions of the PNDC and their operatives. NOW IF THESE ACTIONS ARE NOT ACTS OF TERRORISM THEN WHAT IS? Prof Awoonor was an important part of the advisory process of the AFRC/PNDC/NDC. Today, the very people who came to stave off corruption are now far more corrupt than what they came to overthrow. The fight is the Lords. You can not cheat your maker. Like Awoonor said, YOUR TRIBE/ETHINICITY FIRST AND GHANA SECOND. What unpatriotic words to utter, coming as it does from no mean person than someone who is supposed to be a learned prof. Then they stupidly make him the chairman of the council of state. What jokers we Ghanaians are.

In fact the NDC government is not treating ghanaians well at all. Because Mahama led administration is in government and its functionaries are in governement, they think they are more ghanaian than other ghanaians not in political power.

THAT IS HOW YOU PERCEIVE ANY FORCE AGAINST YOU. YOU ARE ENTITLED TO YOUR OPINION.
Ahoofe: Your claim that Prof Awoonor made the statement "I am first and foremost an Ewe before a Ghanaian” remains to be proven. Where is the source of your quote? Where is the evidence that Prof. Awoonor indeed made the st ...
