TRIBUTE TO THE LATE PROF, J E A MILLS BY PASTOR PETER KAYODE FALARUNGBON. GENERAL OVERSEER. AWAKENERS CHAPEL INTL.

AS WE MOURN AND CELEBRATE THE PROMOTION TO GLORY OF THE LATE PROF. JOHN EVANS ATTA MILLS, I WISH TO EXPRESS MY CONDOLENCES TO THE GOOD PEOPLE OF GHANA,, THE FAMILY OF THE LATE PRESIDENT, HIS SON, AND WIDOW, DR. NAADU MILLS.

IN 1999 WHEN I WAS THE GHANA PASTOR AT THE PROPHET T B JOSHUA

SYNAGOGUE CHURCH , ACCRA , A LADY CALLED ABA, WHO WAS LIVING AT MADINA ACCRA CAME TO ME FOR PRAYERS AND DURING THE CAUSE OF OUR DISCUSSIONS, SHE TOLD ME THAT PROF. MILLS WAS HER UNCLE. SUBSEQUENTLY, I INFORMED PROPHET JOSHUA ABOUT MY ENCOUNTER WITH THE THEN VICE PRESIDENT NIECE WHO, IMMEDIATELY ASKED ME TO IMPRESS ON THE LADY TO ARRANGE A MEETING WITH PROF. MILLS FOR HIM . I CHARGED SISTER ABA, WITH THE ASSIGNMENT AND SHE PERFECTLY DID A GOOD JOB BY BOOKING AN APPOINTMENT WITH PROF. MILLS . PROPHET JOSHUA FLEW FROM LAGOS TO ACCRA JUST FOR THE MEETING . ON THE APPOINTED DAY , PROPHET JOSHUA AND I WITH PROF. NIECE WENT TO OSU CASTLE THE SEAT OF GOVERNMENT. AS WE ENTERED PROF. OFFICE, HE STOOD FROM HIS CHAIR TO WELCOME US. WHAT A HUMGLE MAN. AT THAT POINT HE WAS READY TO HAVE A ROUND TABLE DIALOGUE WITH US UNTIL T B JOSHUA REQUESTED ME AND PROF. NIECE TO EXCUSE THEM FOR A PRIVATE. DISCUSSIONS. HOWEVER, I SAW IN HIS CONTENANCE THAT HE WAS NOT DISCRIMINATORY, HE WOULD HAVE WISHED THAT WE ALL PARTAKE IN THE DISCUSS. WHEN WE LEFT HIS OFFICE, T B JOSHUA TOLD ME, HE HAD COLLECTED PROF. TELEPHONE NUMBER AND THAT HE WOULD BE TALKING TO HIM ON SOME ISSUES FROM LAGOS. THAT WAS HOW T B JOSHUA BECAME CONNECTED TO THE LATE PROF. ATTA MILLS

IN 2003, I LEFT PROPHET JOSHUA SYNAGOUGE CHURCH TO ESTABLISH AWAKENERS CHAPEL INTL ACCRA. AFTER MY EXIT , MANY ATTEMPTS WERE MADE BY THOSE WHO GOT HURT BECAUSE I LEFT THEIR CHURCH TO DEPORT ME, I WAS INVITED TO THE IMMIGRATION DEPARTMENT DUE TO THE PRESSURE MOUNTED ON THEM BY THE CHURCH. AFTER CAREFUL INVESTIGATION, THE AUTHORITY CONCLUDED THAT THERE WAS NO BASIS TO DEPORT ME BECAUSE IAM RESIDENT IN GHANA LEGALLY WITHOUT ANY CRIMINAL RECORDS, MOREOVER, IAM ALSO MARRIED TO A GHANAIAN. WHEN PROF . MILLS WAS ELECTED AS THE PRESIDENT OF GHANA IN 2008 AND IT BECAME SO CLEAR THAT PROPHET JOSHUA HAD A STRONG LINK WITH PROF. MILLS THOUGH NOBODY KNEW HOW THE CONNECTION WAS MADE APART FROM MY FRIENDS AND CHURCH MEMBERS WHO KNEW THAT I WAS THE MAIN ARCHITECT OF T B JOSHUA RELATONSHIP WITH THE PRESIDENT, THEY WERE SCARED THAT T B JOSHUA MIGHT INFLUENCE THE PRESIDENT TO COMPLETE THEIR HIDDEN AGENDA TO HARRASS, AND FRUSTRATE ME OUT OF GHANA, BUT THESE DID NOT HAPPEN BECAUSE PRIOR TO THE ELECTION OF PROF. MILLS AS PRESIDENT OF GHANA, I WAS GIVING TWO YEARS RENEWABLE RESIDENT PERMIT, BUT TWO YEARS INTO PROF. MILLS RULE , I RECEIVED A CALL FROM THE IMMIGRATION OFFICE REQUESTING ME TO REPORT TO A CERTAIN OFFICER , GETTING, THERE , I WAS INFORMED THAT THE DIRECTOR HAS APPROVED 5 YEARS RENEWABLE RESIDENT PERMIT FOR ME. BECAUSE OF THE ANTECEDENCE, CUMULATING IN THE HARRASSMENT AND ALL THE UGLY THINGS THAT I EXPERIENCED AFTER I LEFT SYNAGOGUE, ONE CANNOT MISS THE POINT THAT IT TAKES A GOD FEARING PERSON LIKE PROF. MILLS TO RESIST AND REJECT ATTEMPTS TO INFLUENCE HIM TO HURT , HARRASS OR DO INJUSTICE TO HIS FELLOW BEINGS IN RESPECTIVE OF THEIR NATIONALITY. , COLOR AND RACE THROUGH OUT PROF. MILLS TENURE OF OFFICE, I NEVER MADE ANY ATTEMPT AT VISITING HIM IN THE OFFICE , I THOUGHT THAT WOULDN'T BE NECESSARY CONSIDERING HIS CLOSENESS WITH MY FORMER BOSS, BUT I ALWAYS PASS MY THOUGHTS AND GOODWILL TO HIM THROUGH SOME PROMINENT GHANAIANS WHO WERE HIS FRIENDS AND CLOSE ALLIES. I THNNK PROF. ATTA MILLS WAS NOT THE PRESIDENT FOR GHANA ALONE, HE WAS THE PRESIDENT OF AFRICA THANK YOU GOOD PROF. MAY GOD KEEP YOUR FAMILY SAFE, AND MAY YOUR SOUL REST IN PEACE. GOD BLESS GHANA AND AFRICA
