Open Letter To Anas Aremeyaw Anas: The Undercover Or Investigative Journalist...

Anas Aremeyaw Anas
Investigative Journalism
Dear Sir,
LETTER OF APPRECIATION
I humbly write to express the extent of my appreciation for your good investigative works to eradicate corruption and other evil deeds in Ghana and Africa.

I say big kudos to Abdul Malik Kweku Baako who added extra experience to your personal skills.

Indeed you two and your confidential team have made Ghana and Africa proud.

As i write this open letter, which i believe you are reading, Ghanaians and Africans are eagerly waiting for the full version of your undercover or investigative journalism on Corrupt Judges who pretend to eat,drink and breath in Law, fairness and Justice, claim they ensure sanity in the country, not knowing they are worst enemies to Fairness and Justice in this country.

Honestly, i have been hearing about you and your news since 2010 but never read your investigative works or watched them on social media.

Today marks the day i caged myself in the room without food, read and watched all your investigative works in Ghana and Africa.

Could not control my tears after watching the videos of:

The Spirit Child, where innocent deformed babies were killed in the Northern Region

The Spell of Albino in Tanzania, where Albinos are killed for their Boby Parts to be used to rituals.

The death of a Lady in Nigeria due to abortion procedure by a quack medical doctor worsen my tears, especially when i saw her grave with no sign of integrity.......

I read about the following
Notable investigative works and i am much enthused as a student Journalist.

January 2013
Al Jazeera -People and Power How To Rob Africa This was a film on how African businesses fleece their governments and stash these stolen funds in off-shore accounts. With journalist Stanley Kwenda.

Spirit Child Filmed in Northern Ghana, where Anas exposed the barbaric sacrifices of children who were believed to bring ill luck to their families. The story led to the arrest of some fetish priests, with Anas advocating for the prosecution of such persons.

May 2013
The Messiah of Mentukwa The story of how one woman Helen Jesus Christ, set up a church in a remote village in Ghana’s hinterland and convinced members that Jesus Christ was coming soon and they could only be saved if they cut themselves off the rest of the world. With that came physical abuse and children being denied access to school.

April 2014
Ghana Sex Mafia Film built on the Chinese Sex Mafia story of February 2009. Tells the story of how Chinese girls were trafficked into Ghana and how Anas went undercover to bust the ring and testified in court leading to the prosecution of the traffickers

Ghana's Soul Takers This was a three part investigative documentary that was centered on road safety. The first part looked at driver licensing and the corruption and fraud it is fraught with.

The second installment entitled 'Doom - the silent killer next door, tells three social interest stories of how families lost loved ones to the carnage on our roads. it also highlighted some of the dangers associated with commercial transport.

The third part examines police corruption and the tacit contribution of Ghana's traffic police (the Motor Traffic and Transport Department, MTTD) of the Police Service.

December 2014
AL Jazeera Africa Investigates _ Season 2 Nigeria’s Fake Doctors Anas teamed up with colleague Rosemary Nwaebuni to blow the lid off the activities of quack doctors who are risking the lives of vulnerable people in Africa's most populous nation. The film led to the arrest of two such bogus medics who were using pharmacy shops and even beer parlours as operating theaters for persons who were in desperate need of medical attention. It presents persons who have no medical qualification or knowledge whatsoever placing women in need of abortion under the knife with the resultant fatal injuries.

Ghana’s Food For Thought Focuses on the problem of stealing and corruption in the process of getting donated food to the starving to whom it is destined. Anas went undercover to expose the activities of the Ghana Health Service officers who ran a corrupt business by commercially selling specialized foods donated by the World Food Program (WFP) and destined free-of-charge to malnourished children in the north. It resulted in the dramatic arrest of three persons. All the suspects captured in the act of committing this crime are currently in police custody.

Interestingly, Ghanaians with a disease called "SHORT TERM MEMORY" have forgotten most of your investigative works and never followed up to check the positive results or effect on the society.

Few of the Media Headlines for public consumption are as below:

Nsawam prison, substance like cocaine , heroine , marijuana or weed available like water, poor living condition, poor and inhuman diet and many others...

From the headlines above, i can strongly conclude that Most Ghanaians praise lies and frown at the truth.

It takes only courageous, smart, determined and persistent Journalists like you to overcome the challenges and face the evil guys boot for boot in a tactful means.

The rich ones hire people to tarnish the image of the few who stand for Justice, Fairness and truth just to bring them down to pave way for the evil guys to continue their evil operations.

As a Student Journalist, i have learnt a lot from you less than 24 hours....

Anas, your were once a seller and now an Africa Hero who stands for truth...

this teaches me to be persistent and ambitious, to stand firm and always for the truth disregard to where i am coming from.

Journalism is about results...
naming
shaming
jailing
Journalism shall effect community and the country in the most progressive way.

Journalism is about hard core evidence.
You dont just investigate for news publication, but you follow up to ensure the evil guys are jailed.

I strongly believe that Journalists like Nyameba Kwasi Boadu Otedenkyemso , Ghanamanwofase Nana Akwasi Addo , Kwesi Parker-Wilson , Kobby Blay , Ohemaa Sakyiwaa, and few others will go far in advocating for anti-corruption, fairness and Justice as you are doing to help Africa to develop.

Lets join together to name,shame and jail the evil guys to help in Africa development.

You are genuine ANAS AREMEYAW ANAS and Abdul Malik Kweku Baako .

I salute you and your team. God bless you and God bless my readers.

#when evil men destroy, good men must build and bind.

#I am a good man, hence must build and bind. Hope my readers are also good men.....
