I’ve finished 50% of Mills’ assignments – Anas
Ghana’s ace investigative journalist Anas Aremeyaw
Anas said he has completed about 50 percent of an
assignment given to him by the late President John
Mills.

He revealed the late President’s last wish was
for him to expose some corrupt individuals in the
country.

“His last words to me on the next project that I
am doing, he said he was very passionate about it
and he felt I should do it and do it very, very
well,” Anas told The Globe newspaper.

The award-winning journalist carried out a full
scale investigation on state-owned Electricity
Company of Ghana (ECG), which exposed its rot as
well as brought to light several companies and
individuals owing the power distribution company
of the country.

Anas disclosed the last investigative piece he is
about to release will send shivers down the spine
of many Ghanaians. He said: “I have seen some of
the already completed work and I can tell you it
is very exciting.”

In his tribute to the late President, he said
President Mills will always be remembered for his
resolve to fight corruption in the country.

Anas stated: “Anytime a very big expose came you
remember the President went to the Accra
Psychiatric Hospital when the story broke. He also
went to the Tema Harbour when ‘Enemies of the
Nation’ broke, he also went to CEPS when in the
‘Interest of the State’ broke. So anytime some of
these stories broke he took time and personally
called, he will ask you the questions in-depth.
That was how attached to the work that I put out
there.”

He added that the late President’s selflessness
and readiness to take responsibility “even if the
Castle was implicated was unparalleled.”

“When I did ‘Enemies of the Nation’ in Tema and I
brought out the fact that the Castle was owing,
when he calls that’s what he dwells on and he was
very emphatic that even him was not spared the rod
in that work and I found that quite encouraging,”
Anas opined.

So then the big question is who is Anas Aremeyaw
Anas Talking about? “I can only tell you to stay
tuned.”
