Thank God that Nelson Mandela'S burial ceremony has shown the whole world that NOT all Africans are as barbaric as Ghanaians Akans, who usually used "innocent human beings" to bury their chiefs in Ashanti Region. You can tell from the simple and prestigious burial ceremony of the great Madiba, that his burial is far greater than all the so-called Akans chiefs put together.
I do hope that those homo Akan bastard boys calling themselve CONTEMNOR AND ROMANO, with their sidekick DEMENTED Abeoku, would learn a lesson or the other from the burial of the great Nelson Mandela, NO 'innocent peosons' should loose their lives as sacrificial objects for the burial of any Akan chief. Need l say more?

The parallel you're drawing between Mandela and Mills is neither here nor there. Mandela, unlike Mills, was a clan chief and therefore had to be accorded the traditional burial as this quote indicates "The family had asked for only a few hundred guests to be present for the traditional Xhosa burial..." I don't see the need to compare South African traditions and culture to that of Ghana since we have distinctive practices. Moreover, Mills' family didn't ask the government for his body to be buried in a traditional way. Indeed, Mills is not the onlly first Ghanaian president to be buried in the national capital, Nkrumah was. We also have other renowned former head of states who have been buried outside their hometowns; JFK and his brother TED were from Massachusetts but were both buried in the Arlington Cemetery in Virginia. It's quite amazing that some Ghanaians would want to do politics out of anything which amounts to nothing at the end of the day. Please let the men rest in peace and not in pieces.

Useless uneducated twerp !!! What is Ghanaian traditions and culture? You are sitting here giving false information to unsuspected Ghanaians as usual. Ofui, how much do you know about Xhosa customs and traditions? Who told you only Xhosa clan chiefs are supposed to be buried at their hometowns? And who told you Nkrumah was buried at Accra?
I have always told you to stop using Akan names since you Trokosis do not understand Akan traditions. Akans like Xhosas have almost the exact customs and tradition when it comes to death and burial. There's the need for every Akan to be buried at home whether they are Presidents, chiefs or even slaves. That's the same with the Xhosas. Akans invoke the spirits of their ancestors and pacify them with spiritual drinks and animal blood (which used to be human blood for their kings) to receive the dead in peace. That's the same with Xhosas. Akans celebrate weekly and 40 days and annual anniversaries of the dead. There is a similar thing with the Xhosas.
For your information Nkrumah, Busia, Afrifa, Acheampong, Akuffo and even the non-Akan Limann were buried at their own villages. Nkrumah was buried at Nkroful at the Nzima area but his body was moved to Accra later because his mausoleum was not well taken care of.
Coming to Mills, who told you Mills family did not ask for his corpse? Were you on the moon when Mills died? The NDC paid bribe to the family of Mills to score cheap political points just so he could be buried in Accra. The family had threatened a lawsuit at the High Court when the NDC decided to seize the dead body by force.
Being a dunderhead as usual, you try to compare Ghana with USA who have zero clansmen like you described Mandela. The USA have chosen to bury their soldiers, politicians and Presidents at Arlington because it is designed for that purpose, they did not hire the Chinese to dig 9 instant graves after their President has died and their family is claiming the body. There is always a prior information by a dead U.S. President himself as to where and how they want their dead bodies disposed of.
K. Boateng, you don't have to argue about anything NDC even if you don't have the correct information. I don't think this is an obligation so stop making a childish fool of yourself. Again stop feeding innocent Ghanaians with your false and senseless information

You evil Ashanti Akans are still practicing that evil and barbaric culture human sacrifice to bury Asshantene, at this day and age. You are a big Liar, OSEI TAWIAH. You can never continue to hide your evil culture. THE GREAT NEMESIS SHALL SURE CAUGHT UP WITH YOU BARBARIC PEOPLE ONE DAY. AND EVERY EVIL SECRET THINGS ABOUT YOUR BARBARIC CULTURE SHALL BE EXPOSED.

Kwame Nkrumah was originally buried in Nkroful, his home town. The casket was only recently moved to Accra.
Instead of incurring so much to make this move, it would have been better and economical to the develop the original mausoleum. Then Nkroful will attract all the tourist and the locals can have production ventures to engage in, instead of everything being in Accra

Mills may be forgotten with time because the NDC bought his family out so they could throw his body away from his home. If people will like to follow events after Madiba's funeral, one thing that could be observed is a standing security over his grave. For Mills, we do not need even a school cadet officer to stand by his grave. I hear that, wee smokers have taken over the park. If he was buried in his own village, at least the people would be stimulated to organize the community in such a way that, tourists would find the place exciting. For Madiba, his family, home village and friends will remain world's infinite monuments. Mills may never be remembered again.

Its strange how some of us think. Maase man, you must be more intelligent than the family of Mills who allowed the govt to bury MILLS in Accra.

Mandela was layed to eternal rest in one grave at his ancestral home of Qunu and not at a version of Asomdwe Park where nine graves are dug for one person, and where cows are buried alive before the dead. Poor Atta Mills! He was held hostage by his Party before his death, and in death by ritually buried cows.
