Prof. Ahwoi Makes Interesting Revelation About Former EC Chairperson, Afari Gyan In New Book

Prof. Kwamena Ahwoi has stated in his much talked about book, “Working With Rawlings,” that he discovered popular former EC Chairperson, Afari Gyan at a drinking spot.

The one time Local Government Minister recounted how an errand for Captain Kojo Tsikata connected him to Afari Gyan who would turn out to be Ghana’s longest serving EC Chairperson.

Prof. Ahwoi recalled the interaction with Afari Gyan after he found him in a drinking spot on his way to meet Kofi Drah, a Senior Lecturer at the Department of Political Science at the University of Ghana, as sent by Captain Tsikata

He wrote;

“I joined him and engaged him in a conversation, hoping to find out from him the residence of Mr Drah. As the conversation dragged on, I began to see Dr Afari-Gyan in a new light. He was not only a progressive intellectual; he was also pro-Nkrumaist and not hostile to the revolution.

“I steered the conversation in the direction of the unfolding transition to constitutional rule and his views seemed to echo those of the Provisional National Defence Council (PNDC).

I aborted my trip to locate Mr Drah’s house, turned back and reported to Captain Tsikata’s Office the next day. The rest is history.”
