Sarpong, Justice

Anytime I write an article about this clown and yahoo to boot, I receive threats

from Rawlings factotums and praise singers for calling him a murderer and a

thief. Let me watn these Rawlings admirers who have lost their brains that,

Rawlings has admitted killing at least Yeyeboy and some fetish Preiests from

Volta region to prove a point that, voodoo is a sham. Who does Rawlings think he

is, GOD? You decide to kill somebody not because the person has been convicted

in court for murder but to prove a point? FOR HIS OWN CONFESSION FOR KILLING

Torgbui Akakpovi Ahiaku, popularly called, Yeye Boy of Atidzive,and others, I

implore President Mills to arrest this Futz who has made lying a metier. HOLD ON

FOLKS, I JUST REALISED THIS COWARD WHO SANCTIMONIOUSLY PONTIFICATE LIKE T.B

JOSHUA HAS COCOONED HIMSELF WITH THE INDEMNITY CLAUSE IRON CURTAIN. Forumers

should now read about Rawlings confession of killing yeyeboy and I will come

back and tie these people to the murders of the three Judges and the army

officer.

WHY I KILLED 'YEYE BOY'-Rawlings Confesses

By Daily Guide - Daily Guide General News | Sat, 04 Nov 2006

Several years after the series of bloodletting, atrocities and disappearances

that characterised Jerry John Rawlings' military juntas, some of the motives

behind the sinister acts are beginning to unfold, this time from the horse's own

mouth.

The leader of the bloodiest regime in Ghana's history, Flt. Lt. Jerry John

Rawlings, claimed that his main reason for ordering the execution of Torgbui

Akakpovi Ahiaku, popularly called, Yeye Boy of Atidzive, near Abor in the Volta

Region, as well as other traditionalists, was to demonstrate to their people

that juju does not pay.

The former President and founder of the opposition National Democratic Congress

(NDC), after nearly three decades of silence, was virtually compelled to blow

off the lid at a press conference in his Ridge residence last week Thursday.

With no sense of remorse whatsoever, Mr Rawlings, an apostle of fetishism,

boastfully said Yeye Boy in particular, was “killed to send a strong message

to fetish priests that juju was a sham.â€

According to Mr. Rawlings, the execution of the jujumen, who were suspects of

ritual murder in their communities, was to let the people know that there was no

salvation in juju.

At the conference, a female TV Africa reporter had wanted to know whether the

country, and therefore the citizenry, was any safer now, than in the

revolutionary days.

Obviously not satisfied with the responses from Victor Gbeho and other

spokespersons like Dr Benjamin Kumbuor, the unrelenting lady reporter insisted

on a specific answer to her question, which prompted the former president to

tell the world, the 'hidden truth'.

Rawlings said, “Talking about the lady's question on safety, we talked of the

murder of the judges and the punitive action that was taken, and I also talked

about my brother's son….

When people commit ritual murders and we catch up with them and the chiefs and

timber merchants, and we execute them right in their villages for people to

think that juju has not saved them, then we are violent people?†he asked..

Yeye Boy, the fetish priest of Atidzive, near Abor in the Volta Region, was

abducted from his home by armed soldiers in 1982 and bundled into a waiting

military vehicle.

That was the last time his relatives saw, or heard of him.

A few days after his abduction from Atidzive, his charred, mutilated body was

discovered in a bush along the Accra-Ho road.

He was not tried in any court of law or even military tribunal, and no official

explanation had since been given for his execution.

However, there was the strong suspicion that it was part of the witch-hunting

exercise embarked upon by the leadership of the PNDC.

Rawlings' chilling confession may now give his family the respite, as regards

the sin of the once revered jujuman.

Dozens of vehicles and properties registered in Yeye Boy's name were looted,

while several of his relatives and children were forced to go into hiding, after

his sadistic murder.

Unofficial sources suggested human ritual, but his execution was not announced,

as were the cases of the generals.

In the wake of the National Reconciliation Commission (NRC) two years ago, the

children of Yeye Boy petitioned the commission and after thorough

investigations, the committee recommended reparation and apology for his death.

Torgbui Akakpovi Ahiaku was the 111th person on the reparation list and his

family is to be given ¢20m.. Hundreds of fetish priests, traditional rulers,

students and soldiers were murdered in similar manner, a number of whom were

suspected of committing crimes as minor as indebtedness.

Yeye Boy's execution was one of the most chilling stories heard by the Justice

Amoah-Sekyi-led NRC.

The Commission was informed by a certain Mathias Kudzo, who was at the time of

the murder, a soldier with the Ho Mortar Regiment and a close Rawlings

confidante, that he was part of the team that raided Yeye Boy's location after

an order for the action was received from Accra.

The jujuman was rumoured to have been a voodoo consultant for Rawlings in the

heady days of the revolution, but attracted his wrath when he was reported to

have asked for the clothing of the junta leader.

As Bombardier Mathias Kodzo related, when a close friend of Rawlings heard about

the request which he (Yeye Boy) had made, it was believed that he drew the

attention of the junta leader to a rumour that the late General E.W.K. Kotoka,

one of the architects of the 24th February 1966, had obliged to a similar

request by the jujuman and paid dearly for it.

On hearing this, the NRC was told, Rawlings grew furious and allegedly ordered,

Go and bring the bastardâ€, whereupon his cohounds charged on Yeye Boy, seized

him and eventually subjected him to a gory death.

In fact, the whole of Atidzive suffered the wrath of the soldiers, who descended

on the village to carry out the orders. Bombardier Kodzo, now a man of God,

showed visible remorse for having taken part in that operation, when he took his

turn before the NRC.That was the closest Ghanaians got to knowing what had

happened to Yeye Boy, whose abduction and subsequent death, like many others in

the course of the so-called revolution, was shrouded in mystery."

WHEW!!!, what a confession. Folks, the same people who Rawlings sent to kill

Yeyeboy and others are the same people who were dressed in smocks by Rawlings to

implicate Northerners as the people who killed the Judges and the Army officer

despite the fact that, all of them were Ewe executioners on a mission for her

'Majesty' Togble Avaklavzu Rawlings.

These Rawlings goons used the same modus operandi in accomplishing the murders

of the Judges and Yeyeboy and his Priests from Volta region. Now Rawlings is

hypocritically urging Mills to solve the Ya Na case despite his refusal to turn

his so called evidence on a tape.

Now talking about tapes, is this the first time this kleptomaniac murderer

Rawlings has told Ghanaians about having a tape concerning a crime? No, Rawlings

told the whole world that, he and Kojo Tsikata have been exonerated by one of

those guys he sacrificed to hide their involvement in the Judges murders. He

said he obtained that confession from Senya or one of those murderers when the

person was tied to the stakes with less than five minutes to live before

Rawlings executed him. So what happened to that tape, you guys take a guess;

FIRE, FIRE, FIRE DESTROYED THE TAPES when this clown burnt down the GBC or one

of those government properties this criminal has no qualms torching. Now

Rawlings is playing with Andanis and Ghanaians as a whole telling us he has tape

evidence of those responsible for Ya Na's murder. Let me prescience what is

going to happen eventually. Rawlings has no tape as Kwaku Baako has said so when

he is finally forced through subpoena to turn this tape in, guess what this

clown will tell Ghanaians. FIRE, FIRE, FIRE THAT HE SET ON HIS RIDGE RESIDENCE

HAS DESTROYED THE YA NA'S TAPE TOO. RAWLINGS IS AN ARSONIST.

Let's seek real justice for Ya Na family and the Andanis as Rawlings is urging

Mills to do. At the same time, lets seek justice for these Chiefs too who were

killed during Rawlings regime.

1. The Chief of Apowa or Apedwa in Western region was killed during Rawlings

rule.

2.The Paramount Chief of Offuman Tradional area in Brong Ahafo was killed by a

faction that backed Rawlings P/NDC. This chief's head was cut like what they

did to Ya Na and nobody has gone to jail for that,

3.B.B Birsmirch who was also the chief of Aburi was arrested by Rawlings men

because he happened to be a rich man which Rawlings hate then and that Chief has

not been heard from again. According to stories going around, B.B was put in a

Helicopter by Rawlings and he was dropped in the Atlantic ocean at night to be

feasted on by sharks when he was alife.

For those who are ready to die for this man without knowing about his crimes, I

say get grip of yourselves for defending this devil incarnate called Rawlings.
