Nkonkonsa Celebrity Gossip From Africa
Renowned commentator Kwesi Pratt Jnr has raised questions on the recent speculations surrounding the death of John Kumah during an appearance on Peace FM’s morning show Kokrokoo.
Expressing his bewilderment over the emerging rumours suggesting foul play in John Kumah’s demise, Kwesi Pratt Jnr remarked, “As I was still pondering on his demise, suddenly I heard rumours about claiming he was murdered. Ah! Where from that too? There is even a gentleman who has come out to say he knows who killed John Kumah. So if you know who killed him, why have you not reported it? Why have you not reported it to the police? You claim to know who killed him, but won’t go and report it to the police. So what at all is this?”
Kwesi Pratt Jnr went on to question the tendency to politicize deaths in Ghana, stating, “So in Ghana, no prominent person can die without being murdered? All of them have to be deliberately killed? I don’t understand. Must we politicize death, too? It is quite embarrassing for me.”
He drew parallels with previous instances of high-profile figures facing similar speculations, saying, “This is not the first time. Recently we had some big people claiming Professor Mills was also murdered and insisted on publicising his autopsy report. Is it not the same thing happening now? It is the same thing happening now.”
Expressing his personal shock over John Kumah‘s death, Kwesi Pratt Jnr emphasized, “Our brother John Kumah’s death has shocked me. The reason is this. I never saw him unwell. The last time I saw him, he was not sick, and we had a good conversation. When I heard he had died, I could not believe it. I called the Ashanti Regional Minister Simon Osei Mensah for clarification because I know he was good friends with John Kumah. He said it was true. John Kumah is dead. I consoled him. All of us who know John Kumah have been hit by this.”
