OgaTheTop2: He was court marshaled for a treasonable offense(attempted coup). Death sentence was imminent but whiles in custody, other junior officers broke jail and took him out and quickly joined the revolution that same day...there was chaos in Accra on that June 4th, more like an action movie.. An armed fighter jet was prepared for him and he flew out to sea, fired some shots into an abandoned vessel to test and flew to Ghana’s broadcasting office then, with intention of firing from above any resistance against the revolution. Thankfully the resistance wasn’t too strong so he aborted that mission. A few days later his junta rounded-up alleged corrupt leaders and some top military officers and executed them, no trial though. He handed over to an elected government but after one year he came back. He ushered Ghana into democracy in 1992, stood and won two elections and handed over in January 2001. 6 Likes 3 Shares |

Late Gedion Okar would have been Nigeria’s JJ Rawlings. Okar failed because Nigeria is not blessed by God. |

Ecstasy154: No nonsense man. One of the few African military men that you would want to be carrying out coup over and over again. Another one is Thomas Sankara of Burkina Faso. If only somebody like Abacha could just be a people's person who has human feelings, he could have cleaned up Nigeria too with his no nonsense, kill anybody 'kill able" attitude. On a different note, why do people keep writing RIP for a dead person? you even see some saying RIP sir Your condolence should be directed towards the family the dead left behind, the man or woman is gone and can't hear you. condolence messages are meant for those of us still here (at least for now) reading the messages, not for the dead. |
