When Kwaku Baako informed us about the atrocities of Kwesi Pratt during PNDC Regime, some of us did not believe until the truth was confirmed during the NRC. Kwesi Pratt is the most dangerous Journalist Ghana had ever have, he had the gut to recommend his fellow journalists to be executed by PNDC. Pratt even recommended Baako to be killed by the regime, thank God Baako was instead touchered violently and severely but his life was spared. This is what Kwesi Pratt can do. Now Pratt is a secret agent to NDC and US Embassy in Ghana. May God forgive Pratt and spare him the untold evils that will come upon him and his generations. The souls of those journalist killed through Pratt's recommendations to PNDC will never forgive Pratt. Now Pratt has the guts to take Diplomatic Passport and smuggled his weak-headed children to work at the Ministries under Mills NDC, may God forgive Pratt and his dependance and spare them of the evils ahead of them...

Give credit where it is due and let's stop calling every public figure a thief or corrupt. The corrupt people are in wigs sitting in courts as judges. Totobi has played his part and should be respected if not for anything his quietness is commendable. It's not easy for politicians to take a back stage the way he has done.

Totobi killed NUGS with a promise of a job with the PNDC. He got the job, and NUGS lost it's power because Jerry Rawlings organized soldiers to dump graves in the water closets at Legon.

I agree with you. If he is now 60, it means he was barely 22 when he was NUGS president. He is being thruthful with his age.

I am 59 now and was in sixth form (1977) when Totobi was the NUGS president. One of the current minister's bio says he was born in 1960 but this guy was my class mate from class one through.........We all started class one in 1961 as tiny boys, then. How can he be born in 1960? Most government officials have slashed their ages due to the mandatory retirement system.

When Iwent to Cape Coast University in 1977, Kofi Quakyi was in his third year and was in Atlantic Hall. He was two years ahead of me. I am 61 so Kofi Quakyi should be about 63. I was in the University with him when they had an accident and Yorke died. He betrayed the student course and took up appointment in the PNDC government. Other NUGS leaders including Philip Gardner went into exile. And this betrayer stayed behind to participate in the looting of Ghana.

Master Odasani, thanks. This is exactly what I was going to say. I was in Atlantic Hall as well and I went on the same Aluta with Totobi but after the 'Revolution' these guys betrayed the whole Student Cause and personally benefited from it enormously! The death of Yorke and his own 'accident' that nearly killed him did nothing to scare him off. Totobi was my Senior and I was 63 in March this year so how can he be 60??? He knows I know him very well!!! so there is something not quite right here with the age!
I hope he comes out with a statement to clarify this. This is to save the little credibility he might have with certain people! For some of us, he lost that credibility long ago!
May the Good Lord help Oman Ghana.

Of course you still feel young because you are still enjoying from the hoarded booty from PNDC/NDC era. Right from University you got drafted into Government of that bastard JJ, without knowing the vagaries of civil service. You would've been dead and buried if you tasted civil service by now. Enjoy your 60th birthday but remember there's judgement for you one day for stealing from Ghanaian coffers.

Had it not been the ndc coming back to power in 2008, some of them will be dead by now.i remembered vividly that anytime it is time to go and campaign, he leaves town with the simple excuse that he is going for medical check up or operations in USA. When the party won, he quickly appears. I remembered the founder of nDc make a comment and complained bitterly to that effect. Even at their old age he cannot even be transparent with his own age. They contributed immensely to the distruction of mother ghana. An old man like him cannot even be transparent about his age. Fire burn then all. They will all die from cancer of the marrow and lukeimia and their generation will be wipe off from under the soface of the lord. Kleptos..julior.ole fiafetorwo, fire burn them once again
