I love this interview, after listening to Adabuga, Nana Adomako,capt Awuni etc and major Gyan I’ve learnt a lot and understood why the June 4th coup and why all those generals were killed.
Someway somehow he is right. But I believe the soldiers also did many things outside the law/constitution
I love the interviews Andy great work
I feel sorry for Ghana if a man like this wanted to rule Ghana..
😂😂😂
don't feel sorry..Nkrumah wanted to be a dictator...give me liberty ot give me death
It really seems like there are a lot of things we do know
It should have come to past for Nkrumah to be dictator because Ghanaians need that
rule without the flow of innocent of blood
@deboradanso4565 Ghanaian are just wicked! What they did to doctor nkrumah was cruel. As a Guinean by birth who visited Accra in summer 1978 with my Ghanaian girlfriend, l was not at all surprised about the events of June 4th and its consequences.
..u can tell from this mans earlier interviews his only mission to join the army was to challenge the military hierarchy because of his views be it tangible but never to Soldier..u can also tell from his own admissions that his superiors trusted him but yet betrayed dem..I see him to be a double standard person..he should cut the bullshit on his assertion on the executions. He claims the Generals overthrew a constitutional govts so deserved capital punishment. Not all played a part in this..did Akuffo overthrow a legal govt? Andy asked; so assuming if Rawlings was executed for his failed coup against a military ruler similar to what Akuffo metted he Boakye Djan would he say it was fair the latter could not answer properly..let's not kid ourselves these executions was carried as per fear for thier own lives
Boakye Djan is an excellent Lawyer, Andy is also a good Lawyer.
@@rexitokukurex5777 , acquiring a law degree doesn't make one a good lawyer.
If you listen to the account of officers who actually fought during the uprising ie. Capt Baah Achamfour, Cpt Budu Koomson, Maj Rida, Maj Nantogma there are eyewitness accounts of them physically leading men and fighting. This is the only guy who keeps saying he detailed men to do this and do that. Not once was he near any action through the whole thing. Mainly because he run and hid under his girlfriends bed when the fighting was intense!
Andy isn’t buying anything he’s saying. It’s not rocket science to see he’s absolving himself of any wrongdoing.
The philosophy of a coup is always important....this man has ma salute forever...a soldier true and true
I have enjoyed the show and I must confess I have learnt a lot from this one. Surprisingly our political lenses will not allow us to listen well. From the interview, Major spoke what he deemed right. The military is like that and until you taste it you will argue blindly.
Andy, please kindly take notice of your posturing. I actually could tell from the facial reaction with some response made.
Great show
Is that fufu being pounded at the background? My goodness 🤣🤣🤣🇬🇭🇬🇭
Major Boakey Gyan is a well learned soldier and the man knows what he talking about. I love this old man
Marry him the murderer then
If u love him 😍
Even untill now he don't want to claim what he did is bad but defends himself with the constitution
@@deboradanso4565 yea but it's what it is bro
@@deboradanso4565The constitution is the law n the law must wrk. Simple as that.
The evil that men do, lives after them. Look at him now.
Major ( Rtd.) Boakye Gyan , I understand that the rational behind the killing of the generals was that they had subverted and overthrown the legitimate constitution of the Republic of Ghana.
My question is why did you pick up only General A. A. Afrifa but spared General J. A. Ankrah, Major General A.K. Ocran, Inspector Generals of Police Mr.J. W.K. Harlley, Mr. Bawa Andani Yakubu, Commissioners of Police Mr. Anthony K. Deku and Mr. E. O. Nunoo ?
He's not a serious man
doesn't deserve airtime ...nonsense !!!
Major Gyan is just a f**kin liar
@@richmondapore888ok Mr. Are you aware that General Acheampong like Ankrah wasn’t the main brain behind 72? Brigadier Alphonse Carter, Captain Kojo Tshikata and Kofi Awornor were the brains behind it. Agbo and selormey were the executors. Why then was IK Acheampong executed?
Did General Akuffo, Utuka, Amedume, Boakye or Kotei take part in any of the coups? per his assertions these people shouldn’t have been executed.
The inconsistence in his responses are clear and it shows that there were ulterior motives however he just want to defend the AFRC.
Listen to some of the interviews of Rawlings and you’ll here something different altogether. Rawlings has even made it clear that someone like Afrifa wasn’t part of the list but someone’s made sure his name was brought in.
If you listen to Baah Acheamfour who’s also a member of the AFRC, he said some else. Now the question is why are they not saying same thing?
I’m not in anyway supporting a coup d’tat but Truth must be told so that we move. They just wanted to kill them and they succeeded. That’s all. No amount of explanation can change that because the more they explain the more there’ll be gaps to expose them.
Who wrote the constitution?
Are you so Holy to judge a fellow to death?
They had broken the Law so you and your team should break the law to judge them.....
Ah well.....
Only God knows what......
The Question is that...has Crime against the nation stopped even as of today or not .......?
You all be the judge....
I'm satisfied with one thing. Boakye Gyan was behind the execution of the generals from 4th June to 26th June,1979 and made some children fatherless. Thank God his brother kyereme Gyan also suffered the same fate and even,he and gokah were tortured before they were shot to death." Do unto others,what you want others to do unto you". When his good friend the late JJ overthrew a constitutionally elected government of the late Lineman,why didn't he ask Corporal Tasiri and his men to send Rawlings to the teshie firing range? Judgement awaits all.
Boakye Gyan and Peter Tasiri were the main guys who were responsible for the executions of the heads of state .I wonder how hes able to sleep at night with all the people he ordered killed .Rawlings was just a figurehead
It seems you are very young. Please ask old people about the SUFFERING OF GHANAIANS IN THE 70s about KALABULEY .
@@gideonlord-adem and the chronic bad management of Ghana economy. Ghana and Ghanaian were laughing stocks in those days. I remember been in Accra in summer 1978 with my Ghanaian girlfriend from Paris, it was really painful and pathetic to see Ghana in those days.
I blame the kids of the slaughtered guys to allow such people to continue walking and speaking without showing any remorse
what of if he was killed,should his kids also strike. listen to history and stop judging
@@viozybbaby4879
That would be up to them. So now that he wasn't killed he shouldn't be allowed to live. Such a disgusting human being
Andy, this guy was too much for you. Probably you were overtaken by personal biases or emotions. I wished you had probed him further to elicit more information from him. Boakye Gyan is very knowledgeable so you need to be on top of your game to corner him. He is a smart dude!!!
Andy’s understanding of issues concerning Ghana’s socio-political history is feeble. Andy is totally confused and emotional.
Andy is just using emotions but sir Gyan is very factual
Such an important interview and you couldnt even get the audio right what a shame on the nation
Boakye Gyan is being economical with the truth.
How?
Andy, I suggest this all thing about Ghana’s revolution could make a blockbuster Netflix series
with proper production and set-up. been thinking the same for a minute
Major Boakye Gyan is the MAN, good interview name.
Boakye Djan was too much for Andy. At a point Andy was confused
I have gotten to know the truth since I started following what went on 4th June 1979. I wrote something about some few people who have been interviewed and they behaving like saints. Andy thanks for the interview. Whatever went on has been good and bad, because there wouldn't be an uprising without bloodshed. Some top officials (colleagues) interviewed really spoke with hatred. We are still suffering since our structures are weak but I still believe Ghana will be Great ONE-DAY.
THANKS ANDY D TV. I KNOW YOU HAVE ALSO GOTTEN TO KNOW WHAT WENT ON. I REALLY LOVE HOW YOU HAVE KEPT MOST OF THE INTERVIEVS.
I think these soldiers were not been fair. If boakye djan is saying if you overthrow an elected government, you have committed high treason and your punishment should be death by any other means either by shooting or hanging. Why was Gen. Ankrah not executed on June 26 1979. He was the chairman of the national liberation council which overthrew Nkrumah’s government in 1966. According to my research, he died in 1992.
The execution of the generals and head of states was unjustifiable. At least, they were supposed to be tried. So sad. May their souls keep resting though they faced brutality before dying
Ankrah waz a retired Army General that Nkrumah forcefully retired. Ankrah was brought to head the NLC because he was the senior most officer in the military then who fought daring the war in Burmar as a WO .
Pls pray for this man they all need our forgiveness
Do u think they hv regretted?
All these evil and demon possessed people have destroyed many lives and they are still not repentant
Why should they?
From the Major( Rtd) own words ‘crime doesn’t have a time limit’. If the generals were killed because they broke the constitution of Ghana , then Major Boakye should equally face the punishment for interfering with the trial of Flt Liu. Rawlings for the abortive coup. The former president should equally face trial for the coup on an elected president( Hilla Limann) Nobody is above the law. It is not too late after all former President Rawlings and Major Rtd Gyan overlooked on the indemnity clause in 1979. Same can be done in 2020 . Justice should be served. Nana Addo, Ghana is counting on you .
Good luck with that. One side won during the mutiny. It was their skin or the skin of the late General Odartey-Wellington. C'est la vie.
Well said why are these people walking around free enjoying their kids and grandkids. This man many times was in my office to collect his payoff from Limann while playing double agent. Odartey should be honored not only for bravery but executing well the position he had been entrusted with. Rawlins should have brought those who killed this honorable man, Odartey to trail which he didnt. As a result of that I hold that bastard responsible for the death of Odartey, Col. Animful and many others. Ghanaians are the worse hypocrites. They go which way the wind blows shame on all .
Andy, I was desperately waiting to hear you ask him about Budu Koomson's encounter with him in the bush and how it aligns with claims of him having gone into hiding in the heat of June 4th.
All this coup was wasted useless and unnecessary lost of lives and serious scar on the economy and the nation.... Paa Kwesi sunyani
Busia and Addo were a solid match. Busia use to return from a trip, calculate how much he spent and return the remaining money to the State
This is a deep insight. Very educative and eye-opening.
Why was Afrifa the only member of the NLC who was executed if Boakye Gyan is saying that Afrifa's execution was because he committed felony? Was he the only person who planned and executed the 1996 coup. That is justice à la Boakye Gyan.
1996 coup? Are you serious at all? Smh
Once a soldier always a soldier Boakye Gyan has elaborated the whole June 4 Revolution and had been fair according to other interviews from some senior officers like Mr.Budu Komson etc.now l think we should let sleeping dogs lie.
They tried it for forty years the pain hasnt gone
Perpatrators if they speak and they re forgiven healing will start
Can Boakye Gyan tell Ghanaians how long the trials lasted at the kangaroo court . Rawlings was represented by his lawyer (s) at the court martial? Was were those people not represented by lawyers. That is still justice à la Boakye Gyan.
* why were those people not represented by lawyers ?
Justice à la Boakye, mais c'est la justice peu importe le résultat à la fin. In my view, Ghana is better off today than the summer 1978 when l visited Ghana with my girlfriend Doris, the shock l had landing in Accra this early afternoon from Abidjan will stayed with me for the rest of my life.
Boakye Gyan is a brand full of knowledge, bold and home of truth that makes the interviewer seems naive. I always enjoy watching Boakye Gyan speak. He's a hero!
A killer?
Andy is a lawyer but doesn’t ask intelligent questions sometimes
I am surprised by his questioning. There are far critical questions to ask such an important figure but he wastes the opportunity asking repetitive uninspiring questions.
I don’t see any of you guys hosting in the first place . We getting information that’s really not spoken about or classified. Give the man credit. Keep pushing Andy. Am subscribing noooow

Pure and simple. He is dehumanized.

Thank you Andy ,you did really ask this man all the right questions and he dodged most of them .To me he’s a criminal he was the main guy from the June 4th til the handover .I think Rawlings was just a figure head
Major Boakye Gyan, was the person in control of the government, and Rawlings position was just ceremonial, so ask yourself who calls the shots?
And the last killer must be KOJO tsikata
Andy, was Rawlings tried in a constitutional court or court martial by the military?
Boakye Gyan Why do you run away after the Revolution, see yourself now. Kakai
Ask again LA, just look at his end now
Boakye Djan is fearless and speaking the truth.
Old age no good oh, grandpa's memory is gradually fading but he is doing his best to give a 40year recollection of events. He should be given the benefit of doubt for all the inconsistencies. I salute him though. Kudos to all the gallant BOYS from JLC.
This guy is totally lost. What practical role did he play on June 4th? He couldn't answer a single question on that. He is a shameless coward.
Very true
this man is an astute soldier...he knows his stuff
Boaktye Djan demolished Andy in this interview
If you go home and your father has bullets in his body and forty years after you dont find the killer will you let go
You find cause and you start grieving. The families have their grieve hi jacked in suspension
How can a soldier talk like that ..... so sad.
How should he talk according to you!

I do not think a rebellion or mutiny or an insurrection in any branch of the armed forces of a country can be elevated to an act of war. There are international conventions on war but hardly any on rebellion or mutiny or an insurrection. Such a claim in respect of war is self serving and must be left to the objective judgement of others ; especially to posterity.
The unfortunate events in Ghana had seeds of destruction, when humans tend to assume the persona of immortality with international interference in the wings.
Major Good work done for mother Ghana, if they have any blame, they should blame Ankrah for his stupidity
Andy, sorry for your loss!!!!
Please what soup is the Fufu going to be added to?
He is telling the truth about what happen at GBC house
Even when he wasn't there himself? Very funny. Remember, he's only acting on a report he got. What of the reporter lied to him?
Look at yourself you guys thought the world was for you,
Was there a WAR in Ghana? & at what stage? This is ridiculous.
Noooo, its thier selfish interest
ITS ONLY THE PEOPLE INVOLVE, THOSE AROUND AND THE SITUATION AROUND THEM THEN, THAT WILL UNDERSTAND THE HISTORY VERY WELL AND WHAT HAPPEND. I PRAY GOD FORGIVE US ALL AND CONSOLE THOSE THAT NEED TO AND LET MOVE FORWARD .
He can answer every question right. Clear mind.
The GENERALS EXECUTION was about what? Boakye Gyan Ghanaians need ANSWER. Evil
They violated the constitution by overthrowing a civilian government and caused chaos and people died. So they were executed by the junio officers who took over in the subsequent coup d etat. That's my understanding. I believe this is what he meant when he said the constitution killed them.
@@publicrelations695 ...Why didn’t the constitution kill J J Rawlings, he also overthrew a constitutional elected Government in 1981...? To my opinion, Rawlings was smarter than them all. The likes of Boakye Gyan are now bitter because June 4th was killed and buried as a result of Rawlings 31 December coup detat....
The emotion wen u mentioned his brother
Clear thinker .Very pragmatic ,seems factual
Hmmmmm we don't knows who telling us true storyline from that coup ..that time many of us r unborn
I couldn't follow the interview strictly because of poor audio -- I could hardly hear Andy, and Boakye Gyan's mic was on his right side while he spoke facing his left side. Nevertheless, I found him credible, brilliant, principled, and unapologetic over his roles then and now. Like Captain Awuni, he relayed history as it occurred to him, without embellishments or alterations from hindsight. This man should write a book, if he has not written one already, else opportunistic revisionists would tar his legacy. Until I researched him, I had loathed him by believing the rants of disgruntled Bantus whose corrupt ways he helped stamp out. I admire and respect him now; his principled and bold nature remind me of myself.
Ghanaians should stop being ungrateful to people who put their lives and careers on the line to make Ghana as stable as it is today. This inchoate craving for the blood of June 4 and December 31st leaders is rank revisionism and insipid appeal to emotionalism. Ghana was a disaster before June 4; the Limman presidency wasted no time dragging Ghana back to the Ghana of pre-June 4. My country, Nigeria, suffered through similar abuses at the hands of corrupt soldiers and politicians --- but for their corruption and maladministration, Nigeria would be as developed a country today as, at least, South Korea. We clamored for a Rawlings, but because we didn't have one in the 1970s, we ended up with an Abacha who stole us dry and whipped us with koboko (horsewhip) in the 1990s. All those who have come since Abacha have not done better than him; right now, Nigeria is like a cocked gun held with a bird's feather at the trigger. Ghanaians should thank these folks and stop these unnecessary abuses of them --- but for them, Ghana would have gone to the dogs a long time ago. Descendants of the crooks who ruined Ghana are the ones sowing these seeds of ingratitude and abuses; Ghanians must wake up and shun them, after all the Ghanaian public was with the revolutionaries through and through.
Try to do better with the audio next time, Andy.
I fully understand his narrative and perception. Others may see it differently. History will evaluate all the leaders differently and so will the general public.
Why is Andy wrapped up so long in the killing of Odartey knowing very well in the cause of a coup, it is kill or get killed? It is the killings of those innocent by the people revolution way afterwards that should be of concern.
At this point we just need the truth and the the true details for us to digest it and teach the real truth only in our schools. Ghana education needs a real reform
So this is the Boakye Gyan who ruled Ghana for 3 months ? He lies, and had right brain.
NDC is going to loose big time in 2020 general elections ( 42.37% and 84 Parliamentarians ) God bless Ghana
Ndc, now has 137 npp 137 your predictions failed
What of Rawlings taken over lemans government
hahaha Boakye Gyan told kuffours government that there is no way an illegality must survive meaning while Rawlings has overthrow limans government, he should be made to face trial but it seems thought it will bring another military disturbance.
Seriously!! Gen Odartey- Wellington was weak??? aaaa this Boakye Gyan character kraaa wats wrong with him
Is it the akpeteshie or wat?? He's jux a f**kin liar. You ordered your men to chase him up and kill him at all cost cos u knew how brave and dangerous the Gen was. See this man ooo , after all the things he did instead of apologizing he's here lying and defaming Legends.
Andy! honestly bring people with sound minds to this program.
Why should he ever apologize for. How about his men who were killed at GBC. Are they less Ghanaian or what. The general was outfoxed and killed, end of story. C'est ça la vie dans une guerre entre les militaires.
@ Petit Ben did anyone send them there, who even gave them that power to do that barbaric thing they called revolution.
Is revolution or whatever they call it part of soldiers job description?
@@blakkchief8748 who ever give the right to kotoka and his cohorts to deposed dr. Nkrumah or later on dr. Busia with the gang of acheampong. Ghanaian army was addictive to coups and the privileges of few. I am glad these young officers put an end to that in blood. Today Ghana is one of the most stable democracy in Africa. The culture of coups has been erradicated and thank God for that. Btw, l am not Ghanaian.
This man makes me sick to my stomach not even remourseful for all the people he ordered killed .I always knew he was incharge of Ghana from June 4th 1979 til the handover and ordered all the generals killed .Rawlings was just a figure head
Remorseful for what. Do you think if the other side had won, they would have served him and his friends tea and cookies. Vous les Ghaneens sont bizarres parfois.

Hmmm, the evil that men do live with them so let it be with him.
Just watch his end, can't u guys we. See his suffering
Boakye Gyan played no actual role in June 4th though. He is a liar. And sadly, our elitist media prefers to interview the top people and not the soldiers who actually fought on the ground. Any one would tell you this man was nowhere on June 4th. And he was just a mouthpiece during the 3 months.
Afterwards, he took the money and run like those of June 4th who had no conviction. And when JJ came to power, he attempted to overthrow him, and failed badly.
But he'll never say that one.
Why not actually interview the soldiers who actually fought? The real start of June 4th begun with soldiers being picked up for plans they were discovered with.
The other groups realized that if they didnt act then, it wont happen.
June 4th actually started on 3rd June at 11pm when an officer was shot accidentally, and the one who did, fearing nothing would follow, shot himself. Boakye Gyan who was positioned across the parade ground, ordered to defend against the revolt, fled and was in Achimota until about Midday June 5th.
You should do you homework before you interview these characters. You are messing up Ghana's actual history for whatever political agenda you have.
Village Radio I believe you Capt Budu Koomson said exact same thing on joy tv.This coward was hiding in the bushes with him and then he took his wife and brother Kyeremeh Gyan to his wife’s house at Achimota he remained there until the 5th after everything has calmed down only reason why he was even the mouthpiece of the AFRC was because he was Rawlings best buddy .The real players of june 4th was Capt Baah Acheamfour
ANDY, why is the sound so poor? No no
Whatsup with the Audio?
Boakye Gyan destroys Andy in this interview
Not true
I doubt if anybody will side with this man. He is getting older and oneday he will surely pass away and join those he killed . I wonder what they will say to eachother.
They will beat him papa🤩
😂😂😂😂
He was abnormally wicked to order thier execition
Who will bring this leftovers to justice?
Act of war.
He was looking for peace else this sickler would not be bragging now
I just watched this and I think Boakye Djan's submission in defense of the killing of the generals is baseless. Which constitution was in place at that time? The military in the first place has no business in playing judges and executioners. The proper thing to do was to wait for a constitution to be reinstated to deal with that judgment.
I didn't support the killing of the generals but this man's actions gave Ghana the uninterrupted democracy in Ghana today.
exactly, even someone like General Afrifa deserved to die because he together with kotoka and others brought coup in Ghana and in the process of it executing 1966, Afrifa personally killed general Bawa who was the army commander at that, infront of his children.
So how come general ankrah was never executed but just affrifa
but he said they wanted the real culprit because I think general Ankra was not actively among the overthrow of Dr Nkrumah but kotoka and Afrifa invite him to head the NLC due to his popularity, likewise the 1972 coup where Acheampong was made a leader but the main planners were major solomey, Agbo, and major kwame Baa. but for me, Afrifa and kotoka killed general Bawa who was the army commander during the 1966 coup infront of his children ...that's why someone also killed him
Great show ANDY very insightful
what I have learnt from Major Boakye Gyan today is his character "Killed or be killed philosophy" all the rules he learnt in the army has been throw away.
June 4 was a "house cleaning" that is why nobody was spared. Major Gen. Odartey would've still been killed if he acted differently, no action would have changed that.
he is right about one thing.
Major Gen. Odartey misunderstood the situation because he thought it was a coup.
it was a "WAR" they didn't come to overthrow the SMC II, they came to Kill (House Clean) them all.
Some things he said were inconsistent with accounts of Capt Budu Koomson, Capt Baah Acheamfour, Major Rida, and the others. He’s intelligent but got his judgment and actions wrong.
he is wrong about major Rida and co
Boakye Gyan didnt take part in the actual fighting he was hiding at Burma Camp with his brother Kyeremeh Gyan and mrs Boakye-Gyan. Then they ran to Achimota her house hid there with Capt Budu Koomson’s wife until everything calmed down and he came back to Burma camp.The main brain behind this june 4th was Agyemang Bio late ,Sarkodie Addo ,Tasiri ,Apitinga and Capt Baah Acheamfour.Boakye-Gyan only came to the
Picture after the the june 4th has succeeded because Rawlings was his best friend
Yeah daz true..Agyemang Bio was the soldier who initiated the insurrection on 4th June by storming the Air Force Base with an SMG but got himself shot
Christopher, June 4 was an uprising by soldiers. Tasiri and his gangs, like Ansah Atiemo and the likes of Sarkodiee Addo planned June 4 with little involvement of officers. The only officer at 5BN during the coup was Baah Achamfour. Boakye Gyan did a lot to compromise the defense of the SMC. Boakye Gyan took cover when soldiers announced that all officers must be killed! Most officers, including brave ones like Major Sulemana, had to run from the Burma Camp because they had no control over the soldiers.
He did not need to take part in the actual fighting my brother, he was one of the architects and the brain behind its organization and planning. You must know that General's in war don't take part in the actual fighting they strategize behind the scenes and give commands and orders of tactics and strategy. Agyemang Bio was his 2IC in-charge of the operations and execution along with others. You must know that June 4th planning started about eights years or so prior with the Free Africa Movement group, and Maj. Boakye Gyan was the leader of the group developing the philosophy and ideology of the need of June 4. He is a man of honour and a patriot and we need to recognize that. Your comment leaves much to be desired, and its not based on the entire facts.

At 38:56, were they pounding fufu for the major or what? Lol

Andy, u didn't ask intelligent questions. You seemed to be lost in the interview. Read wide before you bring people for interviews.
What particular questions should have been asked by Andy?
Not true? unnecessary comment? What could you have done?
