When will Ghanaweb publish news about the Matemeho brigands and bandits led by Bafour Akoto, the first official terrorist in Ghana. The atrocities they committed during the time of Nkrumah, like killing innocent citizens suspected to be CPP, pounding of women's private parts in fufu mortar etc. Banning people, including Nkrumah from stepping foot in Kumasi etc, must be told. Ghanaweb, when will you publish those horrendous stories. We're waiting with bated breadth.

Gen Acheampong built Dansoman Estates but he DID NOT allocate one to himself. He was penny less when Rawlings Killed him. Gen Acheampong was a HERO. Rawlings sold ALL THE DR Kwame Nkrumah GIHOC Industries to HIS WIFE-conflict of interest. Rawlings children were educated abroad. Rawlings have houses in ACCRA, Rawlings have foreign bank accounts savings. So is Rawlings corrupt more than Acheampong-YES, YES. EWES SECEDE TO TOGO. YOU WERE PART OF GERMAN TOGOLAND.

Consequently, it's only a graduated fool and a bastard who would consider the murder of innocent judges and some military officers, as not that bad and view it as a patriotic and heroic thing to do.

The only SIN these judges in the eyes of JJ, the bastard committed was REVERSING some judgments of PNDC KANGAROO COURTS. When in the preamble of the Constitution, it’s been stated that “People could seek redress in the Courts if they felt unhappy with the PNDC Kangaroo Courts. We were now in the Constitutional Rule and those who were ROBBED their properties sought Redress. These were the Judges who REVERSED the judgements meted to all those affected. Surprisingly ENOUGH, even though Justice Adadevoh was one of the Judges involved, he was ALERTED by the Powers that be about this ABDUCTION. He therefore RAN away and flew to U.K. where he gave an interview on Hilton Fyle’s BBC NETWORK AFRICA programme. Yes, all that happened during JJ Rawlings PNDC era, targeting all AKAN Businessmen and women. Did we ever find the REMAINS of B.B. BISMARK? Zanetor, reflect on these!!!

Exposing the Beneficiaries of the Judges Murder

Those behind the long conspiracy of lies and character assassination.

Four individuals perish on that fateful night of June 30, 1982; they were cold-bloodedly murdered by four soldiers. Three of these soldiers were caught, tried and sentenced to death by execution. One other, Lance Cpl. Samuel Amedeka who had recruited them, was caught but escaped from jail during a coup attempt against the PNDC and to date is still at large.
The mastermind of the murders, as was later revealed by Amedeka and the other soldiers was Amartey Kwei, at the time a member of the PNDC. His life was not spared either; he was competently tried and sentenced to death by execution. The four fully paid for their crime.
There is however a group of persons walking freely today who are worse than the five who were behind the 1982 murders. These persons are worse and even though they have not committed the physical murder; they are. Because they wickedly capitalized on the murders that were committed, to further destroy Amartey Kwei by manipulating a beleaguered man, whose conscience was already heavily weighing him down on account of the killings he had masterminded; these utterly wicked people, worsened Amartey Kwei’s predicament by maneuvering him to put out the wicked lie that Capt. Kojo Tsikata was the principal mastermind of the crime. To physically kill, they say, is horrible but to literally destroy the soul of an innocent person or group of persons as these have done for 22 years, is worse than the most horrendous physical assassination.
How did they do this and what was their motivation? These are the questions that this expose will endeavor to bring into the open. But before this, may we pray that the souls of all these victims may rest in peace.
How many victims are there? Initially four, those who perished in the night of June 30; but then the four soldiers who killed them were victims also to an extent – victims of the lie told them by the mastermind of the murder, that the four individuals were enemies of the revolution that must be ‘liquidated’ as Amedeka had put it. It may be hard to accept, but even Amartey Kwei, the mastermind was a victim somewhat; initially a victim of blind rage and revenge that misled him to conceive and bring to fruition the brutal murders, but later a victim of a sordid and wicked manipulation of the real beneficiaries of the 1982 murders who are still here with us.

Amartey Kwei’s Historic Statement.

To truly find who these wicked personalities are, we need to highlight a bit more the circumstances that surrounded the second statement of Amartey Kwei implicating for the first time Capt. Kojo Tsikata. Amartey Kwei had been arrested on November 8, 1982. The first statement he made to the SIB was done a week later on the 15th November. Nowhere in that statement was the mane of Capt. Tsikata mentioned.
The SIB claimed that Amartey Kwei volunteered to make a new statement on 23rd November 1982. Amazingly at the very time this “historic statement” was being produced there was widespread bloody fighting as a major coup attempt was being waged against the PNDC. What a great sense of timing Amartey Kwei had! A day earlier, on 22nd November 1982, Brigadier Nunoo-Mensah (now a kingpin of the NPP) issued his letter of resignation as chief of Defense Staff and Member of the PNDC. Another classic case of perfect timing, one might say. Among the reasons he gave for resigning was that “people in responsible positions’ were involved in the murder of the judges. This was on the eve of a major coup attempt against the PNDC. A coincidence?
The two gentlemen whom the SIB claimed took Amartey Kwei’s statement at the time serious military confrontation were raging all over the capital, were Chief Superintendent Yidana and ASP Oduro. In what can only be described as an amazing show of cool-headedness, these two with incredible serenity were supposed to have calmly looked on, as Amartey Kwei dictated his statement, went over it with them, had it recorded by them and signed it in front of them.

The Plot thickens

So far so good it would seem – but it turned out that the two, who were members of the SIB’s technical investigating team, were linked to the coup of 23rd November; which led to the arrest of Yidana. So how reliable was the statement taken by these two coup plotters, on the very day the coup was being staged, some hours after the Chief of Defense Staff and member of the PNDC, Brigadier Nunoo-Mensah had tendered his resignation? Was there a link that joined all these seemingly coincidental happenings? Yidana’s blatant evasiveness during his cross-examination before the SIB would strongly point in that direction coupled with the dodgy conduct of the SIB with regards to the evidence of Brigadier Nunoo-Mensah, which we will presently touch on.
In a poor attempt to explain away the questionable circumstances under which the SIB chose to hear Brig. Nunoo-Mensah in camera, the bizarre explanation was given that during the SIB’s deliberations at the office of its Chairman on the 7th December 1982 exactly two weeks after the coup attempt, Brig. Nunoo-Mensah arrived there with the Principal Secretary of the Interior Ministry with a message that the Brigadier was about to leave the country and was thus required by the government before he would be permitted to leave. The SIB thus claimed that it was compelled under the circumstances to hear him in camera. How very intriguing?
But that’s not all. The real deal is this: two days after this camera appearance before the SIB, Brig. Nunoo-Mensah made a further handwritten statement for the SIB. And like Amartey Kwei, this second statement can also be described as historic. If Amartey Kwei has implicated Captain Kojo Tsikata, Brigadier Nunoo-Mensah sought to finish off what Amartey Kwei had begun; but there was one major miscalculation – the kind that is familiarly committed by all people who attempt to lie and cover up dirty trails. He failed to reconcile the dates properly before opening his mouth wide.

The Unbelievable Discrepancy

It would be recalled that he had resigned from the PNDC on 22nd November 1982; at the time he said one of the reasons was that “people in responsible positions” were behind the killings. Now on the 9th December, he asserts the he was specifically referring to Capt. Kojo Tsikata and cites the statement of Amartey Kwei as his source of information. How clinical! How Neat!
Hear what the Brigadier submitted to the SIB; “In my letter of resignation on the 22nd November 1982, I mentioned that among the reasons that compelled me to leave the Government was the indication that certain important political personalities might be implicated in this sordid act. My reason for saying this was based on Amartey Kwei’s confession statement in which he had admitted complicity and also indicated that Captain Tsikata masterminded the operation. I had no evidence outside this.
The Brigadier and hid friends at the SIB however forgot there was a damning discrepancy in the dates, which would expose the grand conspiracy of lies, viciousness and subterfuge in due course. How both the Brigadier and the SIB could fail to realize that the Brigadier’s resignation letter was written a day earlier than Amartey Kwei’s statement and therefore could not have been used as source of information, would long remain a subject of wonder. But there it was. The Brigadier on and is SIB friends completely lost sight of this Mega Discrepancy. We can say that the God of truth truly rules in the affairs of men.
How did the Brigadier foreknow what Amartey Kwei was going to do the following day, unless those who manipulated Amartey Kwei into changing his earlier statement, had also hinted the Brigadier on or before 22nd November 1982 of the impending change of statement. If this were the case, then adding up the coincidence of the coup attempt the very next day in which two key personalities of the SIB were connected, one can only wonder at the intricate web of subterfuge that this operation involved!
Placed against the backdrop of widespread CIA successful contacts with key individuals in the country at the time, with a view to overthrowing the PNDC, clear picture starts to emerge.
The SIB obviously realized this goof too late so the Board chose not to include the statement in its list of exhibits in Appendix B, on page 73 of its report. How significant! More than that the fact that in its report the SIB deliberately wrongly cited the letter of resignation of the Brigadier as having been tendered on December 22 instead of November 22, a classic case of desperation to justify the unjustifiable.

A Case of Classic Conspiracy

In its final report, the SIB in paragraph 333, pretended, as though Brig. Nunooo-Mensah did not name to the Board which individual in responsible position he claimed was behind the crimes. What else can account for this deliberate pretence except the fact that this whole thing was an integral part of a diabolical conspiracy? What else could explain the SIB’s decision to discount Amedeka’s clear and consistent pronouncements clearing Capt. Tsikata’s name, but chose to rather uphold Amartey Kwei’s obviously mendacious allegations.
What else except a vicious conspiracy could account for the SIB’s dogged dismissal of the statements of P.V. Obeng and Goozie Tanoh on the whereabouts of Capt. Tsikata in the afternoom of 2 to 3pm on 30th June 1982, without even questioning them for clarification whilst choosing to believe Amartey Kwei’ lie on that issue? A further proof of Amartey Kwei’s mendacity in this particular issue is the recent revelation that one of Amartey Kwei’s former colleagues has admitted the he went and showed Amartey Kwei the homes of the victims.
What else but evil conspiracy could explain the reason why the SIB report failed to mention the statements of Nanfuri and Major Agbenoto in which statements Amedeka’s affirmation of no connection with Capt. Tsikata was unmistakably accentuated?
If there were no conspiracy why could Amedeka under cross-examinaion by Tsatsu Tsikata go as far as to point to a member of the investigation team then present, as having persistently attempted to lure him to bring in the of Capt. Tsikata? Thank God that Amedeka and his colleagues stood their ground and refused to further soil their consciences by joining the obvious vicious conspiracy. They may have been deceived to commit murders but they certainly still had a minimum sense of truth and moral rectitude to refuse to join another dastardly plot. What else but a wicked conspiracy could explain the conduct of the chairman of the SIB in interrupting Tsatsu Tsikata’s cross examination of Amartey Kwei at many points when the latter was cornered, and in allowing Kwei to get away with rudeness and cheekiness? History definitely repeats itself as can be seen in what recently occurred at the NRC when the obviously biased Chairman, another justice, allowed pathological liars like Adabuga and Chris Asher (the fraudster, the alleged murderer and the fugitive from justice) to get away with rudeness and cheekiness during cross-examination.

The Motivation

What could have been the motivations of the conspirators? Get Kojo Tsikata implicated. Overthrow the PNDC with the aid of external collaborators and use the implication of Kojo Tsikata in the murders as justification for the coup. That was smart calculation and largely explains the pivotal happenings on both 22nd and 23rd November. Amartey Kwei obviously must have been promised some lenient consideration as the coupists, if successful would have used his confession to establish that he and the others were mere pawns in the hands of Captain Tsikata. Poor Amartey Kwei! The horrible crime of masterminding the murders of four people was bad enough. He further succumbed also the temptation to implicate an innocent man in addition to the horrible crimes he had conceived and implemented. No wonder that, when in his last moments, he was offered the opportunity to cleanse his soul before meeting his maker, he avidly sized the chance graciously offered him by his friend Flt. Lt. Rawlings at the firing squad to profusely apologize to Capt. Tsikata for the wicked lies that he had uttered against him. Thank goodness that he at least had the final courage to dispel, even if only a little, the thick cloud of accumulated culpability he had carried for many months.
Thank goodness also that the Daily Graphic of 22nd August 1983 reported the late Kwei’s confessions on its from page. But for that report in the Graphic, the collaboration of the wicked lies and distortion would have even been more emboldened today to continue to befoul the environment with their horrible lies.

Despite all the Evidence

Despite all these clear evidences, these wicked conspirators with the aid of their collaborators in power today and their media mercenaries have continued to clutch at straws, choosing to overlook this mountain-high pile of evidence of conspiracy and rather depend on past falsehoods, newly churned fabrications from equally desperate liars and completely innocuous and immaterial evidences like the fact that the keys to the vehicles were picked in Mrs. Rawlings’ flat. (Read last week’s issue of the Lens to understand the ludicrous nature of this last claim.)
Some desperate attempts have also been made by these people to also create the impression the President Rawlings must have been involved somewhat because he did know about the murders before the broadcast since Amartey Kwei was suppose to have informed him in a meeting on July 2, 1982. First, this famous meeting on July has been categorically denied by key personalities who were supposed to have been present; i.e. Captain Tsikata and Tsatsu Tsikata.
Besides, assuming without accepting that the Justice Aikins’ famous July 2 meeting did occur as stated by him, does the supposed and traumatized reaction of Rawlings upon hearing the news, not constitute ample evidence of his innocence? And following upon that logic, would it not be the paramount duty of a conscientious head of state not to go ahead to into putting that, as yet unverified information in a public broadcast, when there was as yet no independent confirmation of what Amartey Kwei was supposed to have said?
Was it not the duty of a good leader to condemn such a wicked crime and was it not the truth that whoever committed those crimes could only have been enemies of the fledging revolution? A friend is not the one who claims to share a collective ideal but one whose deeds are consistent with those ideals. Amartey and the four by that dastardly act showed clearly that they were essentially at variance with the aims of the revolution, and by the logic were well qualified to be described as enemies of the revolution. But the bottom line is that President Rawlings had nothing whatsoever to do with the crimes and those who are bent on carrying along these lines, very well know this for a fact, but for sinister political reasons continue heedlessly to do so.

The final Plea

We deliberately do not want to even concern ourselves with the recent claims and allegations of thoroughly discredited and questionable characters like Chris Asher the fraudster and fugitive from justice; neither do we want to take seriously the largely amnesic renditions of aged and quasi-senile Justice Aikins, whose testimony and those of the two others blatantly contradicted each other. These simply do not merit the attention of any serous minded analyst of these issues.
In conclusion, shall we make a final appeal to the little that is left of the conscience of the this wicked gang of conspirators, and their present day collaborators by asking them to ponder over the following questions Captain Tsikata posed to the members of the NRC: “How would you feel if you were falsely accused before the world of such a crime? How would you feel if even after you have been cleared and allegations retracted, the same allegations continue to be repeated and brought up again and again as if they were true? Is there no end to the propagation of these false accusations?”

Comment to: PNC condemns coup commemorations

The justice system in Ghana never did justice because of corruption so something was definitely going to happen as things were very bad. Also, had the govt of the day stopped the Military Intelligence from constantly harassing Rawlings with their assassination attempts, JJ might have left them alone and probably opted for a dialogue.

JJ HAD the right to live in peace in Ghana and still HAS the right to live in peace wherever in the world. Certain persons in the Liman govt wanted him dead but Liman did not want that. Liman told them to stop but they wouldn't listen. In the end JJ chose to confront them and indeed they were no match for him. He taught them a very good lesson and that is "Let A Sleeping Dog Lie".
People have the right to celebrate the coup as a reminder of what could happen if a constitutionally elected govt decides to ignore the plight of the masses and meanwhile poor people turn to the courts for justice and fairness only to be told they are losers through corruption.
Judges take bribes and come out with all sorts of senseless verdicts in favour of the rich and previleged. Even look at Amartey Kwei's case when he was dismissed for demanding an increase in wages for him and his fellow workers in line with inflation. Was it not the court system that made sure he lost his case three times when common sense would have told them that as a shop steward he had the right to negotiate with the management of GIHOC on behalf of the workers?
The management gave him and some of his colleagues the sack. The justice system had THREE OPPORTUNITIES to right the wrong but they did not because parliament and govt plus management had teamed up through bribery to make him jobless and let him suffer. Major Acquah was in charge of GIHOC.
If you were one of those dismissed and lost the court cases will you support the coup or not? If you were a child of the sacked workers and couldn't get your school fees and daily bread through no fault of your parents, will you be happy with the govt and justice system? Treat thy neighbour as thysel

Just 9 months into the Limann Government, inflation generally already peaked 100%. For instance, Sardine which was suppose to be selling at 1.6 Cedis sold at 8 Cedis! Companies embarked on strike demanding pay rise. Gihoc featured prominently among the companies demanding 15% salary increase and had 8000 of workers dismissed and asked to apply back. Their consternation was that, only managers were given cost of living allowance so they continued their demand.

Fellow Ghanaians

We mourn the loss of any grannie who is even over a 100 years of age. We mourn when a woman has a miscarriage of an advanced pregnancy. I personally remember weeping when listening to the GBC commentary of the burial service of Justice Nii Armah Ollenu. I equally shed tears during the solemn ceremonies during the burial of John Archie Casely Hayford (?) and tears freely flow down my cheeks when Maj-Gen Mensah Wood was being buried. Just on TV or on Radio. I do not know, personally, any of the above dignitaries.

So we do not love death. I take no pleasure in the death or killing of people. But for some deaths during June 4 and early PNDC rule, no force on earth could have stopped them. It was a volcanic action.
Fellow Ghanaians, there are some people who, when they hate you, that’s that. No reverse of mind. Events of June 4 and 31 December were better reconciled and not PROBED. This probing will be RE-PROBED and RE-REPROBED by generations unborn.

I do not have a vote, nor do I seek to win any politician for or against JJR with this piece. Who on earth says JJR has not apologized to Ghanaians over the wrongs of these dates? Please ask GBC to replay their recording of events which took place when the State organized a National Program honouring EPHRAIM AMU (live) at the NATIONAL THEATRE. I cannot remember the exact date, except I come back to Ghana to check my books. But it was between 1992 and 1994. Amanfour, JJR apologized to Ghana! JJR appeared very sober and was shown barely sobbing.

Murder of Judges: My sympathies to the families. But where does JJR get involved in these at all? Only because it occurred under his PNDC Government.

I was working at GIHOC Steelworks under Dr William Sam (General Manager); Dr de-heer Johnson (Admin Manager); Capt de-Graft Yeboah (Head of Personnel) and Addison (Divisional Accountant). Tema Steel was under Ghana Industrial Holding Corp (GIHOC) located at Labone, Accra. GIHOC Managing Director was Dugan; Board Chairman was Brig Nunno Mensah; and Director of Personnel was Major Acquah. Major Acquah was the in-law of Brig. Nunno-Mensah. Nunno-Mensah’s little brother was believed to be Annan Mensah who was at Electrical Shop and lived at Tema Newtown.

Now draw the line form here.

Major Acquah: GIHOC Director of Personnel (Under Dugan). GIHOC Workers Branch of ICU of TUC organized a demonstration during PNP rule. National Chairman of the Union was Joachim Amartey Kwei. Our leaders were arrested over alleged excesses during the demonstration at Parliament. They were sent to court. They were tried by the late 3 MURDERED Justices of the Bench. (Judicial Secretary, please prove me wrong). They were sanctioned by our Personnel Director Major Acquah. Verify these records and prove me wrong!!

When December 31 struck, the PNDC was formed consisting of a Former Justice of the High Court, a Student Leader, a Reverend Father, Ordinary Soldiers, and a Trade Unionist. Joachim Amartey Kwei was the Trade Unionist. To all those ex-GIHOC Workers who will like to bother to comment, please tell all the world to hear that many of us wanted " JUSTICE" for Major Acquah, the Judges who tried our Union Leaders and even Brig Nunno-Mensah our GIHOC Board Chairman. JJR and Kojo Gbagbladza were not in our Union. If, as members of Government, they provided logistics to our Amartey Kwei for him to do "JUSTICE" to those we found enemies during our demonstration, I cannot say. But all said and done, some of us GIHOC Workers who were peeved by the arrest of our Leaders, felt we should also use Amartey and should eliminate them.

To the bereaved families, including the family of Amartey Kwei, May God comfort you all. The MURDER OF THE 3 JUDGES & THE RTD ARMY MAJOR was the wish of GIHOC Workers like myself. Killing is no good. But please, this has happened. Fellow Ghanaians, let it be. Honourable Ghanaians, and to one DANIEL AMPOMAH who operates the Website "prosecute-rawlings.com", all those who are peeved by other atrocities of the two regimes, all those who would not like ever to forgive JJR for having ruled Ghana as a half-caste, please let us move Ghana ahead. I have my own sufferings under June 4 and Dec 31 but do not see any need to publicise these.

Bygones are bygones.

Free JJR and Kojo Gbagbladza from these accusations and hold we GIHOC Workers responsible. May Father God touch your hearts.

Rawlings At NRC: Transcript
I Jerry John Rawlings swear by the almighty God that the evidence I shall give shall be the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth.

Please give your full name
Rawlings: Jerry John Rawlings

Where do you live?
Rawlings: At the ridge

What work do you do?
Rawlings: Laughs. Currently I am unemployed

When did you enlist in the army?
Rawlings: A year I left school. I guess that must have been in 1967

Sir as you are aware, you have been subpoenaed to produce certain evidence to this commission.
Rawlings: Yes I am aware.

The commission has received evidence from Mr Riad Hoziafeh that he filmed the interrogation and executions of certain persons. The commission now request that you produce to it these filmed recordings made by Riad at the interrogation and killing of Coporal Halidu Gyiwa, Lance Corporal Andrews Banfo Sarkodie Addo and others at the air force base, Accra on or about March 1984.
Rawlings: If that was his claim, the closest I came to seeing anything near to what you are describing was to an interrogation of one dissident group. Prior to that was when one of them was brought from the Brong Ahafo region. Then there was Malik on the floor, I am talking about the tape. The next scene was, what do you call it?

Question: Sir, the commission is asking that you produce it if you have it in your custody.
Rawlings: I am trying to tell you that I don’t have it. I am telling you what I know about it. I have seen excerpts but I cannot produce it. It could either be with late Warrant Officer Tetteh. Between him, the security apparatus or Ghana Broadcasting, I don’t know.

Question: Sir, Kindly go ahead and tell us what you saw.
Rawlings: Yes. It must have been an interrogation of one of the dissident groups and I watched it straight for about four, five minutes about plots and plans, about who landed and who provided equipments and all that. But I was a little too busy so I switched it off and told the late warrant officer to close it up.

Question: Sir, can you tell the commission who authorised the filming of these interrogation and killings.
Rawlings: It could have been anyone, but I know I was one of the key figures in authorising Riad because in those days we didn’t have enough machinery within the broadcasting corporation to film the things happening around the country. And he was the only one who had a video equipment in those days, so he proved very useful in those days. So, it wasn’t just a question film and activities around the country but most importantly some of these intelligence issues like you mentioned.

Question: And where was he required to keep the tapes? In whose custody?
Rawlings: Some of them like social and developmental sector no doubt ended up with the broadcasting corporation some of which were actually used. Those that had to do with intelligence must have been with the BNI outfit. There was one very personal thing that I showed interest in and wanted to see. One of our fighter aircrafts dropped a bomb somewhere, landed on the runway, the aircraft couldn’t stop so the pilot had to eject. I asked him to film that for me as thoroughly as possible for me. That might still be in my possession but those that have social implications ended up at GBC. In this respect, I would say it was most unfortunate that a fire incident occurred at the Broadcasting house at a certain period of time, which was the second. Whatever interpretation to put to that, that is another question. If you want to analyse it, we can talk about it some other time.

Question: You haven’t stated specifically. You believe it may be with the BNI, late RSM Tetteh or with the GBC.
Rawlings: If you are talking about the one Mr Hoziafeh mentioned on the alleged air force interrogation, I remember I told RSM Tetteh to send it back to whoever.

Question: Do you remember those who you saw in those films?
Rawlings: I remember when the plane landed; I saw a number of soldiers on board. I remember Jack Bebli was the one who was carrying Gyiwa off the aircraft. As he got down the aircraft, there was another one who had been captured. I think that was Malik who was lying on a stretcher.

Question: Do you know why he was lying on a stretcher
Rawlings : He must have been wounded because it was an encounter.
Please go on.
Rawlings: I was more interested in what the dissidents had to say. I was more interested in the manipulators, the plots and plans, who are the hidden people with hidden motives and who was trying to use these soldiers as a pawn. I thought I could find out a few things in the process of the interrogation. But somewhere, three minutes, four minutes into the thing, I just told WO Tetteh to switch off.

Question: Do you know of any interrogations and executions that may have been filmed by Mr Hoziafeh?
Rawlings : That is what I heard. Executions may have taken place but I did not see it. Like I said because I did not have the time, I could not go beyond the three, five minutes that so I didn’t actually see anything.

Question: Is there any particular reason why WO Tetteh would be asked to keep such films?
Rawlings: He was my number two man. He was very reliable and disciplined. You could call him my personal assistant.

Question: In respect of these particular video recording, is there anything that you would like to tell the commission?
Rawlings: Lots of them

Question: Please go ahead
Rawlings: No, if you have specific questions I would deal with them.

Question: Secondly, Sir, the commission has evidence given by Naval Commander Assasi Gyimah and he states that you have in your custody an audio recording made by your self on the day of the execution of Joacquim Amartey Kwei. And that you recorded this just before the execution sometime in 1983. Your Excellency, is that correct?
Rawlings: That is correct.

Question: Do you have that audio tape in your possession?
Rawlings: I did.

Question: You did?
Rawlings: I did.

Question: Since you say it was in your possession, for what period?
Rawlings: From the point you were talking about but when that thing got missing, I cannot say. I am saying so because when Captain Tsikata - I don’t know how many months, how many years later was involved in that case in the UK, he needed it to tender in as evidence but I called RSM Tetteh, he looked everywhere and I looked everywhere but we couldn’t find it. Yet it was so important an evidence he needed to tend in at that time.

Question: Are you saying it was in the custody of RSM Tetteh?
Rawlings: It could have been. It could have been in the custody of RSM Tetteh, it could have been in my custody, but we just couldn’t find it.

Question: Do you recall the time at which you started searching and couldn’t find.
Rawlings: That was when Tsikata needed it as evidence in his case against the independent newspaper in London.

Question: Now can you tell the commission the content of the tape?
Rawlings: I cannot quote him, but I can give you what he said in essence. Let me put it this way. Amartey Kwei did what I thought was noble. I had known Amartey Kwei as a very dedicated person, as a disciplined person, as a person who was not a liar, not a thief and one who commanded a lot of respect. For him to have involved in the misuse of soldiers to do what he did when we came into office

Question: Sir with respect, if I could draw you back
Rawlings: Ahhhaaa. Don’t because I am building it up.

Question: Okay.
Rawlings : For him to have been engaged in the misuse of soldiers to do what he did when we came into office and worse of all to use the name of an innocent person was most painful not only for me but for us all. It was heinous enough for him to have done those two things. Why he had to use Kojo Tsikata name I don’t understand but I can only surmise. For me because of the respect I had for him, I wanted him to cleanse his spirit, his soul before he meets his creator and who else could do it but himself. The inevitable is gonna happen. He has been found out. He had everything and anything to do with the judges murder and we were gonna exact the ultimate penalty and for me, I thought it was an opportunity for Amartey Kwei to cleanse his soul and spirit before he meets his creator. Not only that but I am not gonna have an innocent man, my wife kids and me leave with such a fabrication of killing somebody. I asked Assasi Gyimah to do that but when Amartey Kwei refused, I had to do it myself. So I got the tape myself and followed the convoy from whoever to the point where he was tied. I approached him that he had personalised an issue. I told him he had hurt all of us by doing what he did. I asked him to let us have the ultimate truth before he meets his creator, restore some of my respect before you go, to cleanse all of us and I was glad when he vindicated Kojo Tsikata.

Question: And you recall what his words were, at least in essence?
Rawlings: Yeah, I mean he pronounced the innocence of Captain Tsikata and asked for forgiveness. In fact a day after, I remember inviting a number of journalists and played the tape to them. Kojo Yankah who was editor of the Graphic then published the content which was not the intention. I reproached him because that was not the moment. Because, sometimes if truth is not told at the appropriate moment in the appropriate context, people put question marks and doubts over it.

Question: Do you know if any copies were made at that time or it was just the original?
Rawlings: I don’t know but I doubt it. If anybody was carrying a tape among the press when I met them, I have no idea. Apart from that I never made it known but I believe I played it to Kojo Tsikata and some of our members.

Question: Finally is there anything further you have to say about the tapes and all that.
Rawlings: A lot, but I am wondering if it shouldn’t be later. You’ve got to appreciate the degree of tension at that time. Civilians were dying, there was danger to our men who were trying to restore then. You’ve listened to Adjei Boadi, Asaasi Gyimah, you’ve listened to Nkwantabisa, this honourable man lawyer Adumuah Bossman and Captain Tsikata. A good number of the experiences should give you an idea of the explosive nature at that time. When you are talking about a coup, a coup is a coup. In a coup, the command structure stays in place. A revolt erupts at the bottom and it takes time to restore control. It can be very destructive. That is a different matter but for now, let us deal with the pertinent issues you are interested in.

Question: Alright. I am satisfied so I would hand you over to the chair.
Rawlings: No, are you satisfied?

Question: Yes I am. You don’t have the tapes both video and audio.
Rawlings: I don’t but I have dozens of recordings but if you people are interested you are welcome. They are mouldy. They would spoil your machine but if you people are interested in, you can come. Because nothing hurts me more than the manner the films that depicted the times were burnt in the fire at broadcasting. Why do we want to distort what happened then?

Question: Sir for now we are interested in what we subpoenaed you about.
Rawlings: Alright.

Chairman of commission: We have no question for you so we thank you for coming.

Rawlings: Oh Sir, why? (Laughing)
Chairman: Silence please, we asked you to produce specific tapes but you say you don’t have them so there is not need to ask you any questions. If we need you we would call you.

Oh Sir, How? Thank you

The actions of the NDC when they lose court cases remind us of their hatred for the courts as demonstrated by killing these three judges including a breastfeeding judge. NDC can never run away from the murder tag. NPP's ills against the state are also visible for all to see. We need to eliminate these parties and try another.

Ewes see Kotoka as a Hero for removing Kwame Nkrumah from power but call Danquah a traitor for merely opposing Nkrumah's One Party Rule agenda. Funny Gbedemah also opposed one party rule and preventive detention. He run away to the US and worked with the CIA for the Kotoka Coup. He too is an Ewe hero. So Ghanaians you see the matter we are dealing with? Ewes removed Nkrumah and craftily in Zu Za style put the blame on UP. The reason they hated Afrifa was because they suspected he caused Kotoka's death and delayed their plan to take over Ghana till JJ, their ultimate Hero came along and did it for them. Today they are fully in charge. That is why Ewes fret whenever JJ the murderer is cast in a bad light.

Even today they talk of J H Mensah referring to Ewes as inward looking people. See how long it took for them to fish out Afrifa, living on his farm, and exact their vengeance by killing him at the stakes. They said all the generals were killed for their involvement in staging coups. Ask them if Kotoka had been alive in 1979 they would have added him to the list and shot him too. The hypocrisy is too much.

Of course, why should we forget, especially those who lived through that era? Now the NDC is crying foul when Rawlings is called a murderer. Those were dark times when discussing these events was dangerous, as his supporters would come after anyone who spoke out. It's important that these stories are being told so that younger NDC foot soldiers, who weren't alive back then, can understand the foundations of the NDC party.

Dear Ghanaweb, I have keenly monitored write ups on the abduction and gruesome murder of these illustrious citizens with very little information on the fourth victim.

I respectfully want to furnish our audience with valuable information on the soldier who was Director of Personnel at the Ghana Industrial Holding Corporation acronymed GIHOC.

Christened Sampson Kofi Panyin Acquah, he trained at the reputable Royal Military Academy in the United Kingdom and his contemporaries were Air Vice-Marshal Napoleon Yawovi Richard Ashley-Lassen, Brigadiers J.R.K Acquah, David Asare, Hubert Dua Twum-Barima, Charles Beausoleil and Colonel Victor Coker-Appiah.
A staunch Buddhist and one-time Aide-de-Camp to President Dr. Kwame Nkrumah, he also served as Deputy Director of Military Intelligence.

PAROCHIAL ETHNIC PURGE

Among the officers and former military leaders marked for execution, three of them were added to the list to make an ethnic balance. This was done to make the executions NOT seem like an anti-Akan. However, after 1981 there were purges in the civil service and the military. Most of those who were purged from authority and job positions were Akans. Most strategic Ministries went to the Ewes. In the election of 1979, a lot of Ewes supported William Ofori Atta oF UNC who broke from the PFP.
Actually Ghanaians who found themselves murdered, vanished or went into exiles were Akans. All the Judges were Akans.Those who found themselves riding very high power in the PNDC include Kojo Tsikata, The Tsikatas, Kofi Awornor and many others. Despite Capt Kojo Tsikata was absolved from the heinious murder of the Judges, today many people think it was he, who gave the command to finish the Judges. Some Ghanaians still think that Joachim Armartey Quaye was used as a pawn to save the real top faces of the killing commanders. (No time to edit)
