Akata Pore on June 30th murder - "It won't go away unless ..."

Sgt. Daniel Allolga Akata Pore (rtd), a key figure in the defunct Provisional National Defence Council (PNDC), has stressed that the murder of the three High Court judges and a retired Army Officer on June 30, 1982 by operatives of that regime (PNDC) will not go away unless something is done about it.

"Oh! Yea, people cannot just get up and varnish in the middle of the night and the perpetrators will think that it will ever go away. No! I think that it is right for the Government to rightly look at it otherwise it will never go away", Sgt. Akata Pore told the Crusading Guide.

Akata Pore, who is in exile in London, said it was not only the people who were directly affected by the heinous act that he was talking about but also the families of the murdered people. "But someone like me whose name was mentioned, and I am as angry as you can imagine that my name should ever be linked to such a crime, he underscored, adding, "And it is not a crime that someone like me would ever want to be accused of. I will welcome any opportunity to clear my name," he said.
