The Evening News reports that a son of the executed Air Vice- Marshall George Yaw Boakye has added his voice to the call on President J.A. Kufuor to order the exhumation of the remains of his father and seven others for a fitting burial.
In a letter to the President copied to "The Evening News" Mr George Kwabena Boakye, now based in the United States, said "I hope that at no point in the history of Ghana shall our differences be settled like it was done in June 1979.
"We can use that period to remind us of where we will never go. I hope that the families of Generals Acheampong, Akuffo, Afrifa, Utuka, Kotei, R. Admiral Amedume, Col Felli and that of my father will be granted this request so we can give our fathers a proper final resting place".
The call by Yaw Boakye’s son comes on the heels of a similar request made by the wives of the late Generals on the President for their husbands to be given fitting burials by their families.
