Below are portions of Boakye Djan’s letter published by the Crusading Guide newspaper.

I, Osahene Boakye Djan, the former Spokesperson of the AFRC, am writing to inform you that I am seeking legal advice to take the records of the AFRC to the National Reconciliation Commission for investigation.

This is to inform you that I have been sufficiently provoked by the widely publicised recent attack by Rawlings on my person and the record of the AFRC, to make the move now.

Mr Rawlings is reported in a recent edition of The Chronicle to have said that I was a coward and not a hero and that he claimed to have made me. His personalized attack and false claims against me and on the record of the AFRC gives me no other options.

His fabricated stories can easily be refuted even at the level of media trial where the requirement of adjudicated proof can be ignored and has therefore become his refuge and trademark for attacking others with impunity.

His claims that my procrastination led to the delay in the timing of the June 4 Uprising cannot be true. The delay was infact cause by his repeated inability to pass his promotional examinations in Current Affairs until I coached him to do so with a massaged borderline pass in 1978.

For it was after his borderline pass that I recommended him to be admitted to the Free Africa Movement led by me and which spearheaded the preparatory phase of the June 4 Uprising.

In the meantime, I would like to pint out that this is the first time Mr Rawlings has found the need to respond publicly to my defence of the AFRC.

The reason is not far to find. He is simply using abuse and name calling as a distraction from the need and inevitability of his being held to account for his 31st December bloody illegality that my pronouncements and activities have exposed clearer than ever, during my two-week visit to Ghana in August 2003.
