Continuing the series on 1979 in Ghana, I speak to Tommy Annan Forson, a legendary broadcaster who experienced the events of 1979 and also witnessed the execution of some Military Generals.

The real Dadabees of old . Having a swimming pool in your house in the 1960s , 1970s is wild !

You represent my era, the Ghana that I grew up in. North Labone and all that. Well captured. We loved life!

Amazing how resilient he is, having been subjected to such traumatic events. Definitely livimg with PTSD but he has obviously learnt to cope, using innate & various skills as well as having a very supportive family network. Hmmmm... it's interesting how we continue to hero worship ppl we knew, despite their shortcomings.🤔 Hopefully those painful experiences shall never happen again. Brilliant interview, as usual, Kafui❤

Used to hear his voice on radio daily, when only the state was allowed to have a voice in Ghana: GBC2!

Nice insight into history from this great man. A little more probe to his entertainment days too would have made a lighter note thou. His standup comedy and also his TV show on GBC the f and f show. In summary another great interview Kafui whom I have been listening to since Kapital Radio days ❤

We lived at 220 North Labone Est. Opposite Major Awhaitey, next to the sub station. Charlotte Dada was our neighbour. I hope you recall the park where we all learnt to ride our bikes. Great memories!

Kafui, you should try and interview Captain Ebenezer Koomson as well he will give good insights. He was the officer who drove Generals Acheampong and Utuka to the shooting range and the one who covered their heads with the hoods.

I lost all the respect I had for Captain Koomson. The day he said Acheampong was the one who helped him to get admission to the military academy, and yet he was one who drove him to his death. What a coward!.😢😢😢😢

@Yk-ik2kx Ай бұрын

@@agoogo5026 there was nothing he could’ve done. He didn’t authorize for them to be executed, even Captain Koomson himself his life was in danger
