He recalled that on the morning of the helicopter crash, they had met with Dr. Omane Boamah to discuss strategies for Akwatia.
“Dr Omane was a master planner… he will sit down, put pen and paper together and map up the strategy”
He said Dr. Omane Boamah would then assign tasks and sit back, “And we will go and bring him A+”
He added that they had completed their assignments that morning and were scheduled to report back to Dr. Omane Boamah by evening, unaware that he would be travelling that day.
