Watch previous political videos:

[nanasarpong]

I think this is by far the best interview I’ve watched on AndyTv. You allowed this interviewee to flow without too many interruptions. His account also seem very factual as it is first hand information and they all seem to add up juxtaposed to other accounts on the June 4th I’ve heard.
I respect this officer!!

[thevideos]

I am not a Ghanian, a Nigeria in USA. I listened to this interview. This major is a disciplined soldier with difference. His demeanor is rare and infectious. I salute you sir.
Pastor Chuka Nwankwo.

[agyegoagyego]

As a United States Marine I respect you. JJ took advantage of our brain dead officers. I was in Kamina Barracks and Officers were disrespected 1979.

[kaylinyawson]

Even though am a Police Officer I would have love to work with u.Such an intelligent officer. I love u major.God bless u. Your calm nature and your command over the English language.Surprisingly Rawlings speaks good English but couldn't write.

[benrob]

I am highly moved by what this genuine former military officer.

[theophilusamassah]

The CDS in June 1979 was Lt Gen Joshua Hamidu. Rida was a fine soldier by all standards. The uprising was not an event but rather a rebellion exercise in the form of Turmoil. Therefore its account is varied based upon location and series of events. Therefore we need to investigate, interrogate, and collate these stories very well so that we can understand what really happened. It's very very interesting and equally important to put all the various events in the right context and tell same. Thanks

[fortuneyawo]

Now he is a very rich man . he and his wife. JJ is a corn man .

[naashika]

I really appreciate this interview. Very informative.

[njemnu]

I think the officer has a point. The past sometimes has to be revisited.

[nanaakosua]

Don't worry maj. Rida they are all suffering quietly.

[ebenohene]

Mr Rida I love to hear you more. Am still grieving over the death of the innocent GENERALS.

[richardmanu]

Wish to hv more of this interview. I now know my trace as Gahanaian. Thanks Majo Rida. These wicked souls will perish no matter the years they will hv on earth.

[mambaman]

Andy posed the most crucial question in this whole interview to Rida who admitted that discipline had broken down. If there was no discipline, and Rida and his company were being refused ammunition to those who were presumably fighting to restore discipline, why were they not prepared to force Brigadier Amoah to go and open BAD for them to get their ammunition. To complain now about the man quivering in his chair is unimportant. Rida was not serious about fighting, really fighting for what he claimed he wanted to restore to the army.

[danielsackey]

My perception of the military has changed after listening to Major Rida. He has told the Unvarnished truth. I am dumbfounded and nonplussed. This narration must be put into print and eventually, the perpetrators tried no matter the time in which it happened. We can always revisit the evil past and deal with its cleansing.

[JOHNAMOO-OTOO-hz]

Mjor Rida become emotional about Major General Odartey-Willington. Major Odartey was indeed a brave, intelligent and a great Leader with example.

[nanaakosua]

Rawlings ends up sending his children to expensive private schools in the UK. Their suffering has not began

[geeop]

These are stories that must not only be told through interviews but must rather be properly documented and put into books. They must also be read and told or taught our young children in schools. On the question of whether Rawlings and his cohorts must face a trial or not, I think is long overdue. The good people of Ghana must be made to hear the FULL story with eye witnesses reports regarding what really on that horrible day and what really led to events of that day.

[adjornorjacob]

How could a low officer overpower the entire military generals of the country. Everyone is playing innocent and blaming Rawlings. This man is just another liar

[YAHWO]

Real soldier not political.
i respect

[injendimwivandamukolwe]

I'm Kenyan but has been following Ghana politics. I look at Rawlings as a murderer. He should have apologised to the nation. Now he will meet the innocent he executed.
