  Among the Akans of Ghana, the dead is only showered with praises of his/her strengths in life, criticism is not allowed. I agree with Freddie Blay on this one, although, we all know that human beings are no angels. After a person is dead, what does he/she cares about critics? Jake was a good man, and that's all we know. He was able to put NPP at the Osu Castle to the benefit of all Ghanaians, that's all we want to hear at this point in time, when he's been called to eternity by his maker. May Jake's soul rest in peace.
