    Because of political devide in Ghana Atta Mills was left alone at A...Park without the will of his family while Mandela is resting at his home town. May both Rest In Peace

    I hope Mills finds his way home some day.

    Where are the NDC film makers with the ability to produce films in Heaven? They gave us a film of a bespectacled Atta Mills siting on the right side of Jesus. Maybe they can give us a film showing Mandela siting on the left s ...
