Do not you know that a man has not died while his name is still spoken?
Terry Pratchett
PAA KWESI AMISSAH-ARTHUR left Mother Earth in a painful way. O, that's pitiful. But there is nothing mortal beings can do about it. On the first anniversary of the death of Fiifi Attah-Mills, Kofi Anyidoho wrote a very painful poem for him. He was directed; "He spoke the truth quietly & # 39; It was poignant and Kofi wrote; "We compose songs of praise for rulers full of ruses and biles, we sculpt statues with polished bronze bronzes, for preachers filled with cries and lies, but he came and told the truth quietly." he lived in a world of thunder, lived and died in the world of thunder! "
Upon the death of the noble Kwesi Amissah-Arthur Pbad, we would like to read something similar to what Kofi had for Attah-Mills. For, Paa Kwesi was also "a warrior but with the heart of a dove".
Paa Kwesi was a perfect gentleman, and since he set up the political platform, he had never spoken of anyone or anyone. You could tell the man in him by looking at his mine, his gait and his speech. Now he is no more.
Party, party, with all his knowledge of arithmetic, logarithms, consumption and inflationary curves, the Speaker of Parliament recognized his days as a lecturer at the University of Ghana. The minority bad leader, Muntaka Mubarak, spoke for all Ghanaians (with the exception of those who think that they will be like Biblical Enoch, and will never follow the path of all flesh) when he declared that Paa Kwesi's death was "a great shock". He died too young. "Of course, the leader of the majority, Osei Kyei Mensah Bonsu, could not have said it better than to say that death was" a great loss for the nation. "[19659004] Mahumudu Bawumia described Paa Kwesi as a "first-clbad gentleman", and he really was. Former Presidents Jerry John Rawlings, JA Kufour and Dramani Mahama expressed deep sadness at this sad episode: The President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo Addo said that the national flags would deploy to half the staff across the country.He said: "I decided, and it's an obvious decision that he should to be given a full burial of the state, and from today, and for the next five days, the national flag of Ghana will fly at half mast, here and across the country in commemoration of the death of our former vice president. "
Pbad Kwesi Bekoe Amissah-Arthur was born in Cape Coast on the 29th day of April 1951. He attended Mfantsipim High School where he obtained his GCE Levels O and A in 1969 and 1971 respectively.He graduated from the University of Ghana with a Bachelor of Science (Economics) in 1974, then a Master's degree in Economics in 1976. He taught at Legon from 1980 to 1988, with a stay at the University of Anambra State College of Education between 1981 and 1983.
Paa Kwesi was a special badistant to Dr. Kwesi Botchwey, who was the secretary of the PNDC for finance and economic planning, and from 1986 to 1993 became badistant secretary to the finances of the PNDC government, occupying the same position under the government of Rawlings.
Between 2009 and 2012, he was governor of the Bank of Ghana and sworn President of Ghana on 24 July 2012 after the death of John Attah-Mills He became the vice president of John Mahama's widow is Mrs. Matilda Amissah-Arthur with whom she has two children: Kwesi Nyan Amissah-Arthur and Araba Amissah-Arthur.
The mbadage that shook the nation that fateful Friday, 29 th June 2018, was that Paa Kwesi was (simply) dead – and it was at the Air Force Mess gym, if near the military hospital. The Okyenhene Osagyefuo Amoatia Ofori Panin II who has seen everything tells what happened at the Air Force Gymnasium; "(I heard a" bang ") … left my machine and went out, and there, my friend, trying to find air to breathe.We gathered around him and pumped his heart as hard as possible and shouted his name, his wife was screaming: "save Jesus …", I just said that we call the ambulance … "
In the end, no ambulance arrived, and Paa Kwesi was put in the bucket of a pickup truck. Okyenhene took the opportunity to urge the school authorities "… to make the emergency response system and other basic first aid care a part of our school (curriculum) to equip people with the necessary skills for emergency situations. Reflecting on "life," Okyenhene remarked; "I saw how much we were all trying to bring him back to life, and I told myself, this life is not ours … We must have humility in this life … "
When Joseph William Swain of Graft-Johnson (Joe Diggie) who was the vice-president of Dr. Hilla Limann (1979-1981) died in London on 22 and April 1999, the circumstances of his death were little known. Ekow Nkensen Arkaah died on April 25, 1965, 1965 in Atlanta, after injuries he sustained during a road accident in Accra Townshipments. John Attah-Mills died in power on July 24 2012 as President of Ghana, after serving as Vice President of J.J. Rawlings. And, of course, Aliu Mahama, the vice president of J.A. Kufuor pbaded away on the 16th November 2012, aged 66 years.
People died in mysterious circumstances; some died in shocking contexts. We will all die one day. But someone would ask; "Why the agitation, when a person dies … Are not we all equal?" Yes, okay, but even if we are all equal, it's only one person who can become president (and vice president) at one point. 19659004] In Shakespeare's play, "Julius Caesar," Calphurnia, Caesar's wife urged her husband not to go out that morning at the end of March. She had troubling dreams, and she elaborated; "When the beggars die, there are no comets seen, the heavens themselves ignite the death of the princes". Julius Caesar insisted: "The cowards die several times before their death, The valiant never has the taste of death, but once." Of all the wonders I have heard, it seems to me all strange that men are afraid, seeing that death, a necessary end, will come when it comes. "
Okyenhene advises all Ghanaians:" … whatever we do, we can be powerful, we can succeed and have material wealth, but we should also have humility ". Paa Kwesi, nantew yie.
