Its a good thing for majority of Ghanaians to learn about CPR.However,if the alleged cause of death(severe acute asthma) is true then performance of CPR could not have saved his life.When one is short of oxygen supply to key organs of the body especially,the brain due to inflammation and build up of mucus in the airways and tightness of the bronchial muscles,no amount of CPR can get air through this highly compromised airway.The solution in this case is the immediate supply of oxygen together with a drug that will help open his airways immediately(Short acting beta agonist) eg salbutamol (nebulized).It is sad that this great man of our land,should die this way.The lesson to all asthmatics is that,please do take your medications as required and minimize exposure to your trigger factors to prevent precipitation of severe acute attacks.

Mr.Hypocrite you rubbish this very National Economic Forum at Akosombo.but look how you`re decorating now....}He[ Pratt ] also acknowledged that the death of Mr. P.V. Obeng came as a shock to him, alluding to the fact that the late statesman was instrumental in the organization of the National Economic Forum at Akosombo.

BTW, the hypocrisy accusation is directed at those praising him, mostly from the NDC party itself, while they allegedly hated him when he was alive, not you who hated him even in death and are rejoicing.

Anyway, I don't think they hated him and they are hypocrites. It only shows that some MDC members hate corruption and would subject even their own stalwarts to severe sanctions and treatment when accused of the canker, guilty or not! But since PV was not all warts and horns but had some redeeming features, it is not hypocritical to mention those too.

You see, we can have sane exchanges on national issues without all that unwholesome ethnocentric diatribe!

Mr Pratt's comments rather distinguish him as a notorious hypocrite.

It is barely a few years ago that Mr Pratt was exposed in Wikileaks as an intelligence asset for a well-known foreign embassy. What credibility has Pratt got in Ghana? A man who professed friendship to a leading politician and then reported him as a drug user to, of all people, a high official of a foreign embassy.

P.V. Obeng was exposed in a competent Norwegian court as a recipient of bribes on behalf Rawlings and NDC. What credibility does the judiciary system in Ghana have? A court system that has awarded hundreds of millions of state money to people who do not have contracts with the government? Spare us the insult after the injury! P.V. Obeng was thoroughly corrupt and devious and represented what is fundamentally wrong with Ghana and why the country's economy is in tatters despite receipts from diverse resources! The hypocrites are all those showering praises on a crook who got away with murder, and Pratt's words make him the leader of the professional mourners at Obeng's symbolic wake.

PV was a liability to the NDC Mafia despite his loyal service that enabled much looting by all. He knew too much and it's possible he disagreed with Rawshit or was going to spill some dirt on Rawshit. How could Rawshit and others declare that PV died of a massive asthma attack when no autopsy report has been issued? How did he have a massive asthma attack while driving and then was able to stop the car and park in the middle of the road without crashing? Or did he, like Mills - according to Cadman Mills - raise his hands and say "I give all to you God!" Why didn't the taxi driver who found him call for an ambulance? Why is the story changing? First, they said he was found in the middle of the road. Now they say he was found near a gas station! There are just too many inconsistencies and resemblances to Mill's mysterious death. Let the family declare what the autopsy says killed PV or shut up everybody. MASSIVE ASTHMA ATTACK, MY FOOT!

PV, in spite of all the predictable positive tributes, had more to gain to cover his misdeeds/corrupt practices than to expose his vulnerability through dissent within NDC. He knew a lot that went wrong during his close association with JJ, but did not have the courage to speak out when it mattered most. PV, was more interested in protecting his ill-gotten gains and sought to remain relevant to the vindictive NDC-he was constantly looking over his shoulders for obvious reasons. His long-term public service, spanning some 33 years (1981-2014) was not borne out of pure political/ideological conviction or selflessness but by fear of the ''shadows'' of past corrupt association with JJ from the Mankoadze days. In the end he assisted in overthrowing a legitimately elected government of Dr Limann but what legacy did he leave to justify his role in the misrule by JJ? Nothing, except greed and more greed while the country has retrogressed in deserved development for 30 years. How come we still talk of filth enveloping Accra and other cities? God help black leaders, who still do not understand the world and yet pretend that they can rule a nation!! Schools, hospitals, and roads still remain poorly developed, and PV was central to most of the key decisions over the P/NDC 26 years rule of Ghana-as he was touted as the Prime Minister in the PNDC days.
Did he write any memoirs to shed light on his contributions?

Mr Pratt, you should have equally mention the name of that useless and illiterate Baaku,who had connived with Italians to bring the name of the late PV into question. This mother fucker illiterate, was on air telling all sort of lies against the person of the late PV. Interestingly, this guy, who wanted to look good after the death of Mr PV, attacked former president Rawlings for saying something he called "unethical" against the late PV,just to set the tone for the illiterate and primitive Ashanti shit eating pests to insult him. Folks, you see how this dirty illiterate Baaku is? This is the guy who connived with Itailans, because of the small money given him, telling the wholes world that, the late PV has stolen properties belonging to the Italians. Where are the families of the late Obeng! I urge them to take on this useless illiterate of a journalist, anytime he pretend! These are the characters we have among us,these are the characters Kufour,the accomplished thief, used our money to decorate,not for a hard work done, but lying and tarnishing the reputations of those he percieved as his enemies during his eight years looting period. Today, this dirty Baaku is pretending that he love the late PV more than former president Rawlings. The time will surely come when we shall one by one eliminate them completely so that our country can move forward.

Kwesi pratt is lying through hi "rat teeth!" Kofi Koomson took the questionable acquisition of property by some functionaries of the PNDC, PV, Adjei Maro, Col Osei Wusu and Ibrahiim Adam) to CHRAJ. CHRAJ found them culpable. Instead of prosecuting them, the PNDC issued a white paper to exonerate them.

When the Norwegian Cement Company revealed in the Norwegian courts that they had paid bribes to Rawlings through PV, PV put out the nonesensical defence that "he was paid for a consultancy" and Wofa Ata accepted that weak defence.

Whatever anyone says about PV's long involvement in government, the fact that there could not even be an ambulance to take him to the nearest hospital for a nearly harmless asthma attack tells all about his legacy!

Actually we need to resolve any differences and to give all respect to the dead because we would not be dearling with our difference with the dead during this period but the entire family who that lost has brought pain and they need condolence and respect. But a man live by his examples so, PV Obeng would be judge by his examples. I find Pratt comment very weird because, how could people have other perceptions of PV including his own government members. I guess when you don't trust one enougth is often constitute their behaviour or doings. What man do also follows efter them and it could be possible, we did not know him properly since many people have different view on him. I believe that, the jugdement capacity of the people conclude who you were and that peoples perception is a fact that you cant change.

Ghana is suffering because of corruption from the politicians and the journalist. The journalist are too biased to report what exactly it is. Kwesi Pratt and Kweku Baako have nothing to tell Ghanaians

How could a man of such a caliber be taken to the hospital in a taxi instead of an ambulance with paramedics with first aid treatment. What a shameful state of affair of a country with many excellent brains. I guess we are still not using our God given brains to do good for the people in the country. Again it is not that much of hypocrisy but bowing our heads in shame is what we should lament about.

I am surprised at Kwesi Pratt for describing PV as a patriot of Ghana. Oman Ghana should jubilate for loosing one of the people who brought her to her knees by grabbing anything that came his way. Huge mansions were built in the name of unborn children. Such is your patriot. Have you crossed over to them? We have not forgotten the PNDC/ NDC era when Ghana was looted by people we trusted. Ghanaians, wake up and join in the jubilation.

UNDER MOST CIVILISED DEMOCRACIES, its a tresonable offence punishable by very heavy penalties to forcible overthrow the duly elected government. Here we have PV WHO AIDED AND ABETTED JJ RAWLINGS to overthrow our third republican constitution and we are talking about him gloriously. Notwithstanding all the damage control that he sought to do, we cannot forget that he committed a crime of the highest order under our constitution and our history books should reflect that. We need to make it shameful for people who opportunistically try to come to power without the ballot box
