Careless wish


Your wishes are always good but action bad.

Sir please stop wishing because you were given the chance to change this nation but your action spoilt everything more

Sometime I just wish you keep quiet and just let's nigeria be.

Your wish are what I will call sweet mouth,then your action bomb.

You disappointed nigeria,not only that

You disappointed south south including Niger delta where I came from...to make matter worst

You disappointed your brothers from bayelsa


Mr ex president, personally am seek and tired of your wish,when you came in,i thought we will see light not knowing you re leading us to a more darkness....God will never forgive you for the life that went down due to the sake of your recklessness.

You have every right to be angry. But the Holy Bible
says do not sin when you are angry. Though a devout
Christian, 93-year old Opanin Kwadwo Manu did not
follow this biblical instruction. He had a
misunderstanding with his wife and ended up killing
her together with his brother-in-law. Opanin Manu is
back from prison after 35 years trying to educate
people in his hometown on the need to control their
anger to avoid what he went through.
Joy New’s Seth Kwame Boateng filed the following
reports:



I had spent almost my entire day inside the Tamale
central prisons interviewing inmates and officers.
Having inhaled that unbearable cocktail of urine and
intolerable cell stench which triggered an
uncontrollable headache, I was rushing out when I
heard this faint fatigued voice “my son come”. I
turned and it was a frail sick and extremely old man.
He was 92 then. He could barely walk and even
breathe well. He had a simple message for me. He
said and I quote “my son, I will soon die but please
when you get to Accra, tell the President I don’t want
to die here. He should let me go home and die. That
was the first time I met Opanin Kwadwo Manu.
Opanin Kwadwo Manu speaks to Seth in prison
Upon my return to Accra I informed the authorities
about Mr Manu’s plight and on July 1, 2015, he
obtained his freedom resulting from a presidential
amnesty.


Mr Manu, who is now out of prison, could not hold
back his gratitude to the President.
“I am so grateful to the President for granting me this
freedom. May God bless him and all the people
around him. May they have sympathy for all others
who need help.”
He is now 93 years and has reunited with his family
for the first time in 35 years. Opanin Kwadwo Manu
was jailed in 1980 at age 58 when he could not
control his anger and ended up killing his wife and
his brother-in-law.
“Misunderstanding in all marriages is common. My
wife lied to me and when I discovered the truth, I got
very angry. We tried settling the issue but that did not
work. My brother-in-law worsened the problem when
he gave my wife to another man at a time we had not
divorced. If we had even separated, it would have
been better than just giving my wife to another man.


All these got me very angry and I killed them.”
He had a 14 and 9 year-old children with his wife
when the incident happened. Though it has been 35
years since the incident happened, Mr. Manu
wonders how as a very quiet person, he became so
driven by anger that he took two lives. He fled but
was later arrested in a forest. Mr. Manu recounts
how he was treated as an animal before handed over
to the police.
“As soon as they arrested me, they tied me to a log
and left me on a park under a scorching sun. Around
7pm, it started raining and I was still on the park.
From nowhere a certain man came, pulled a knife
and severed part of my left ear. It would have been
difficult for this person to be identified if he had even
killed me. I was very lucky.”
Mr. Manu spent about 10 years on remand before he
was convicted and ended up spending 35 years in
jail. Prison life, he says was not easy.
“I have really suffered. Just cast your mind back to
the famine that hit the country in 1983. For the prison
officers to even get corn dough to prepare porridge
for us was even a problem. At times we slept on an
empty stomach. There was cholera outbreak at that
time as well. We were not spared in the prison. I am
lucky I am still alive. On a good day, you will be
served porridge in the morning. Later in the day,
banku would be prepared with some watery soup.”
He was stigmatized by his family who found his crime
embarrassing. His younger brother Kwabena Fosu
confirms no family member ever visited him during
his stay in prison.
“It is true we never went to visit him. It was really
difficult for us to go and see him looking at the
severity of the crime he committed. At times it will
just hit us that we have a relative in the prison. At
times we heard rumors he was dead. This rumor on
his death continued for some time but because we
had not received any official report from the prison,
we did not believe.”


Opanin Kwadwo Manu found God whiles he was in
prison, and sought forgiveness. His fellow inmates
became the family which had shunned him.
In July, Mr. Manu was released and sent to his village
in the company of a prison officer. His brother
Kwabena Fosu says scores of people flocked to the
Chief’s palace to catch a glimpse of him.
“I was really shocked to see him after so many years.
We had no hope he would ever be freed. I was very
sad when I saw him so I broke down. But I made sure
my excitement overshadowed my grief. When I got to
the chief’s palace, I saw hundreds of people who had
come to also see him. Most of them did not know
him and some had mixed feelings. There were those
who were making some comments like, the murderer
is back and we must be careful in this village. These
comments made me sad.”



When I first met him in the Tamale prison, it
appeared he was not going to survive another week
or two. But it appears his release has given him some
renewed strength. Mr. Manu says he is healthier
enough to even start farming.
“I have no land to farm on now because my siblings
sold all my lands when I was in prison. I can farm if I
get a parcel of land. At least I can grow cassava and
pepper which could fetch me some income”
Getting the people of Tweapease to accept Mr. Manu
back has not been easy. Though many in the town
were not born when the incident happened, they
don’t want to associate with him. But that is not his
worry now. He is back sharing his life experiences
with the townsfolk on how they must manage their
anger and tolerate each other. Mr. Manu does not
want any of them to ever face what he went through.



“Patience is good in all things. Through patience you
can win all your battles. It is even said that if you
patiently dissect an ant, you see its intestines. I am a
quiet person by nature so people were really shocked
when they heard I had killed my wife and her
brother. If I had been patient, this would not have
happened so I want to tell the world that patience is a
virtue. No matter what, please be patient.”



Freedom, Mr. Manu admits must never be taken for
granted. He is hopeful his cellmates who are still in
the prison will also have their freedom soon.
Opanin Kwadwo Manu says when this happens, their
sins must be forgiven and assisted to integrate into
society.
