Stop saying Castro is still alive - Hammer

Castro - Musician Castro - Musician

Award winning sound engineer, Hammer of the ‘Last Two’, has lashed out at people who still pronounce Castro as being alive.

Hammer, who has nurtured the likes of Edem, Kwaw Kese and Tinny in expressing his misgivings about the issue, told Storm FM that ,it’s about time we accept that Castro is dead.

"Listen, I feel that so far as an accident has happened and we can’t find the two of them; it is the obvious that they're dead. The earlier we accept that the better. Right now he has been robbed of the appropriate rites. He is dead and no one has done his funeral, it’s very bad,” he expressed with much grief.

He further exclaimed “it’s about time we accept that we've lost a genius who made us feel good with his music”.

Hamnmer doesn't think it’s wise to be sitting down and saying he is hiding somewhere. That assertion is nonsense, he pointed out.

He pleaded with the public to try and remember him well by mourning him.

Castro, together with his female friend went jet skiing on the Ada river and presumably got drowned about a year ago. All attempts to retrieve their bodies yielded no fruits.

Ardent showbiz players like, award winning sound engineer Kaywa, highlife singer Adolf Tagoe, DJ Amez (Castro’s manager ), 'Yawa' singer Akoo Nana are just to mention a few have said that Castro is still alive.
