Kweku Baako Exposes ‘Liar’ Rawlings Over Murder Of 3 Judges In 1982

Editor-in-Chief of the New Crusading Guide,  Abdul Malik Kweku Baako Jnr. has accused former President Jerry John Rawlings of lying that he knew nothing about the killing of the three Ghanaian High Court Judges in 1982.

High Court Justices; Kwadwo Adjei Agyapong, Cecilia Koranteng Addow, and Fred Poku Sarkodie were picked up in the middle of the night and murdered in cold blood, after which their bodies were burnt and buried.

Former President Rawlings, under whose watch this tragic incident happened, has always claimed that he knew nothing about the incident, insisting that some of his boys acted without his consent.

However, Mr Kweku Baako who had been imprisoned on the orders of Rawlings at that time, insists that some of the culprits whom he had the privilege of speaking to in Prison implicated Rawlings as being aware and consenting to the unfortunate murders.

“What I’m saying is that he knew the judges were dead; he knew Amartey Quaye and those boys have done it. He even asked Amartey Quaye, where the people [judges] were, and Amartey Quaye said we’ve dispatched them. Now you see that he admitted in a very weird way that the thing [murder] was a natural thing to him”, Mr Baako disclosed on Peace FM Kokrokoo show with Kwame Sefa Kayi.

“I have the investigative documents and statements the boys wrote. Some wrote about three or four different statements before the NRC. Mr Rawlings should take his time and read these statements. Those boys were his boys, those boys were his boys…he knows that.” He added.

“Kwame, don’t forget that I was in jail those times. They made a huge error by bringing those boys in the prison. They made a serious error of judgment. They mixed those boys with us. They don’t know that once a journalist, still a journalist”, he explained.
