The mother of the late hiplife musician, strongly believes that her son was murdered.

Terry Bonchaka met his untimely death in a fatal accident on the Legon-Madina road in Accra when his car veered off the road and hit a tree. He was confirmed dead at the 37 Military Hospital.

Real name Terrence Nii Okang Mensah Adjetey, the 21-year-old died on Friday, October 29, 2003 after performing at the Akuafo Hall of the University of Ghana in their Hall Week Celebration.

Mrs Charlotte Adjetey, speaking in an interview with Hitz FM’s Noella Kharyne Yalley, revealed that seeing her son’s corpse confirmed to her, he was murdered.

“When they brought him from the mortuary and he was lying down in the house and I went in there to look at him vividly and I saw that on the front neck as if something had been done to him. It’s only Jehovah who knows the truth,” she said.

She said the autopsy report indicated that Terry Bonchaka died of “suffocation, he couldn’t breathe, that was how it came about. What [happened] that he couldn’t breathe, only God knows.”

“It was the hand of someone, someone did it to my son,” Mrs Adjetey, in a shaky voice, concluded.

The mother of the late hiplife artiste said the past 14 years have been tough. “I’ve been crying all along because I miss him. He is a son and a friend, you know how it is [when] you’ve lost a friend, you know how it feels.”

According to her, some of Terry Bonchaka’s friends have been visiting her. She said she got to know that his son paid school fees for some people, most of them dropped out of school after his death.

As Ghanaians remember the hiplife talent 14 years after his passing, his manager then, Regan Mends told Andy Dosty, in an interview on Daybreak Hitz on Hitz FM, that they are marking the anniversary with a cleaning exercise at the burial site.

According to him, next year being the 15th anniversary will be commemorated with a concert with the purpose of preserving Terry Bonchaka’s legacy.

John Terry could retire after leaving Chelsea in summer https://www.adomonline.com/john-terry-retire-leaving-chelsea-summer/ Tue, 16 May 2017 10:39:08 +0000 http://35.232.176.128/ghana-news/?p=121251 Chelsea captain John Terry said he could retire at the end of the season, after leading the champions in their 4-3 win over Watford at Stamford Bridge.

The 36-year-old, who will leave the Blues in the summer, scored the opening goal on a night of celebration for the Premier League title winners.

Chelsea host Sunderland on Sunday in their final league game of the season.

“I’ve not ruled out Sunday being my last game and retiring from football,” he told Sky Sports.

“If the right offer comes along I will sit down and consider it with my family – whether that’s here or abroad.

“Genuinely I haven’t made any decisions yet and I’m evaluating all my options at the moment.”

Former England captain Terry announced last month he will leave Stamford Bridge after more than two decades at the club.

The central defender is the Blues’ most decorated player, with this season’s title earning him a fifth Premier League winners’ medal.

He has also helped them win five FA Cups, three League Cups, the Champions League and the Europa League.

The Londoner has made 716 appearances for the club since his debut in 1998 – 579 of them as captain.

‘I couldn’t have written this farewell’

Chelsea wrapped up their sixth English title with a win at West Brom on Friday, and the home fans were in a celebratory mood as they welcomed the champions back to Stamford Bridge.

Terry, in what may be his final playing appearance at the stadium, lifted the atmosphere even more when he opened the scoring after 22 minutes.

Watford threatened to dampen the occasion with a gutsy fightback before substitute Cesc Fabregas earned a thrilling win for a much-changed home side.

The Spaniard’s scuffed strike sparked joyous scenes among the home fans, while a fireworks display outside the stadium followed the final whistle

The Blues will be presented with the Premier League trophy when they host relegated Sunderland on Sunday.

“If I could have written my story, this is how it would have panned out – to go having been crowned champions, and to leave the club in great hands with the manager, the owner and the players we have here,” added Terry.

“It is going to be sad and emotional for me on Sunday because I’ve been here 22 years – but I’m delighted for the experiences and opportunities I have been given.”
