Please to the one who posted this video can I get the complete video with audio? My dad is the forth accused the Late Mr. Albert Owusu-Boateng the editor of the Ghanaian Times at the time of his arrest. I never got the chance to know him. I will appreciate any videos you have on the trial or related to him. Thank yoi
In our research, we spoke to the soldier who blew the whistle on this specific coup. He reported to his superior, who took him directly before Acheampong to report what they'd try to get him in. It seems the conspirators believed Acheampong to have been 'Nkrumah's boy' and expected him to transition the government back to an Nkrumahist reality. But students of that time feel Acheampong, like Rawlings later, had a more center-left view, and like the PNDC, didn't neccesary see the multi-party system as workable. Unlike the PNDC however, Acheampong was crippled in his uncompromising Economic policies by the international community, and resorted to corruption and patronage later on, which further worsened his reputation. It's a pity that today, modern politicians and so-called thinkers see it fit to water down a complex history like the Acheampong era to simple good and evil. Ghanaian, and indeed African history suffers at the hands of such callous actors.
Kwame Gyapong On the day of the executions cameras weren’t allowed.But I once heard that the execution of Acheampong and Utuka was broadcast on GBC evening news.
According to an eye witness account of the executions cameras were not allowed at the Teshie Range .When i was in Ghana back in 2018 i went to the Range and the stakes are still there
The Utuka and Acheampong executions were filmed and pictured. If you search it up you will see the pictures of both of them on stakes but the 26th June executions were not filmed or pictured by tashiri’s command as he said no pictures or videos of it
Your Grandfather Kotei was my daddy’s boss, we even have a picture of him in our house, my father left the Army after your Grandfather was killed by Rawlings
The fourth man in suit and tie was my dad. The late Albert Kwaku Owusu-,Boateng, the first winner of the Journalist of the Year Award in Ghana and he was the Editor of the Ghanaian Times at the time of his arrest and was wrongfully jailed for so called "concealment of consipracy". Hmmmm...

Avant qu'il ne soit ultimement exécuté en 1979. This is why army's should never be involved in politics.
