Former AFRC spokesman, Osahene Boakye Djan has challenged ex President Jerry John Rawlings to a debate on radio on the role of the AFRC in Ghana’s history. The former army major threw the challenge on Hitz FM’s Taxi Driver show hosted by Blakk Rasta. In an interview on the show, Boakye Djan contested Rawlings’ assertion that he Boakye Djan hid under his wife’s bed in Tema in the heat of the June 4th Uprising in 1979. According to Boakye Djan, at the time he was commanding their troops so he was mobile and not stationed at one place. He indicated that it was rather Jerry Rawlings who was missing in action on the fateful June 4. In the nearly one hour interview on Taxi Driver, Boakye Djan recollected his schooldays with Rawlings at Achimota School where he was acknowledged as an ancestral worshipper. He also recalled an occasion when Rawlings and the late Kojo Lee met him and gave him the Black Power salute after it was posted on the school notice board that Boakye Djan could use the one hour for devotion to engage in his ancestral worship. According to him, on that day he asked Rawlings to take to ancestral worshipping rather than Catholicism. Osahene Boakye Djan also spoke about his journalistic background which saw him working in editorial capacities for both Ghanaian Times and the Daily Graphic. Boakye Djan was a guest on the Blakk Sense segment of the radio programme. Blakk Sense features renowned people of African descent and Blakk Rasta has featured the likes of Martin Luther King, Philip Quaicoe, Alpha Blondy, Shaka Zulu on the show. The segment also features some of the most controversial Black people of all time including the former Central African Republic leader Jean Bedel Bokassa, General Eyadema and Mobutu Sese Seko. Host Blakk Rasta, a Land Economy graduate from KNUST, said after the programme he is focusing on issues of interest to his listenership and will continue to ferret out the burning issues of our time. Taxi Driver is live on Hitz 103.7 FM from 10 to 1 pm, Monday to Friday and it plays some of the best reggae tunes of all time.
