US businessman in Ghana petitions US Congress to investigate CIA over Rawlings’ death
An American businessman and Managing Director of Plant Oil Powered (POP) Diesel, Claude Convisser, has petitioned the US Congress to investigate the activities of both the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) and Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) in Ghana.
In the petition, a copy available to JoyNews, the US citizen
detailed a series of allegations against the two American intelligence
services, including the murder of former President Rawlings, and plans to
instigate terrorist attacks and destabilise the country.
The petition also called on the US Congress to investigate
what the petitioner called “a systematic and regular practise of bribe –
demanding in President Akufo-Addo’s Flagstaff House”.
The American investor who has lived in Ghana for seven years
now, said the CIA meddled in the 2020 elections in favour of the NPP and
subsequently murdered the former President, J.J Rawlings in order to quash any
opposition against the US Ghana Defense Treaty, which the former President had
criticized as a surrender of the country’s sovereignty.
“On Wednesday, November 11, 2020, I conducted a news
briefing for the Ghanaian African media and press in Tamale, the biggest city
in that country’s north. I revealed that on December 26, 2017, the Vice
Chairman of the NPP for the Northern Region, a gentleman by the name of Alhaji
Sunday, took me to the Flagstaff House, the Ghanaian President’s Office”.
“The President’s Deputy Chief of Staff Asensu, who like many
of the officials at the summit of the Ghanaian Government, is a family relative
of the President, demanded a $20,000 bribe for any favor from the Government,
including meeting with President.”
“The next morning, November 12, before any of the twelve
news outlets had a chance to publish their stories, former President and
staunch American ally Flight Lieutenant Jerry John Rawlings died,” the US
citizen stated in the petition.
According to Convisser, following the dearth of news about
the cause of former President Rawlings’s death, and his wife Nana Konadu
Agyepong Rawlings’ informing President Akufo-Addo on television that his
passing was completely unexpected, the Ghanaian Government announced that he
died of Covid-19 which later appeared to be a cover-up.
“He did not die of Covid-19. The CIA, the DIA, or one of
their affiliate agencies or contractors murdered him, to prevent news outlets
from carrying my disclosure of systematic corruption in the Flagstaff House
that might have harmed the re-election chances of the CIA’s favoured NPP and
President Akufo-Addo in the December 7.
“Former President Rawlings’ sudden death was the only event
in Ghana of sufficient magnitude that would have, and did, immediately suck up
and eliminate news coverage of all other domestic topics for enough days to
quash my own November 11 news disclosure. Indeed, it is possible that President
Akufo-Addo owes his narrow – re-election in the December 7 poll by a margin of
51 percent to 47 percent for former President Mahama to the CIA’s suppression
of any controversy induced by former President Rawlings’s death which they
caused’.
The US businessman also accused the CIA of having taken a
“misguided approach towards agricultural development in northern Ghana by
seeking to subvert cultivation of the jatropha tree for its inedible fruit seed
oil as a biofuel, which his company, according to him, was the first in 2013 to
prove to the satisfaction of the US Environmental Protection Agency.
“Following my presentation to the Congressional Renewable
Energy Forum in July 2016 on the promise of POP Diesel’s pure jatropha plant
oil diesel engine fuel, the ‘petroleum mafia’ followed me to northern Ghana,
ground zero for the POP Diesel’s agricultural amf industrial project and this
idea. I predicted that the ‘petroleum mafia’ was destabilizing Ghana to force a
foothold in northern Ghana, so that it could sabotage and usurp to kill POP
Diesel’s incipient project to replace with jatropha plant oil as much as 22
percent of worldwide Petroleum diesel supply coming from northern Ghana and
West Africa”.
Convisser, in the petition further described as a “mistake”
an Executive Order signed by President Obama in Kate 2013 or early 2015 which
permitted the CIA abs AID to contract and partner with private, for-profit
enterprises. In Ghana, I assure you that the primary beneficiaries of this
policy have been the ‘petroleum mafia’, even at a time today when the country’s
own offshore petroleum industry is underwater, with shares of the former
biggest Ghanaian petroleum company Tullow Oil selling for $0.05 per share on
the country stock exchange.
He also said the CIA has made several attempts at his life
using the petroleum mafia in order to ruthlessly and brutally stomp out
competition in the cultivation of jatropha tree in northern Ghana.
“I am a healthy and able-bodied American male. The CIA has
poisoned me at least 30 times; 5 poisonings at the Mata Amritanandamayi Worship
Center in Potomac, Maryland, which they purchased contrary to the First
Amendment separation of Church and State and gave to my Indian guru to control
it for the purpose of poisoning people like me; 5 poisonings on international
flights on Delta Airlines which they see to operate; and at least 20 times in
Ghana, mainly at restaurants that I frequent, by bribing their asset owners and
chefs to put substances into my food and through other means that give me the
flu, cold, hallucinogenic dreams, dry mouth, constipation, conjunctivitis, cold
sores, enlarged breast, diarrhoea erupting with such precise regularity that it
could not drive from nature, even Covid-19, and that have other strange told
and untold effects on my body”.
He concluded the petition by requesting a “requisite
investigations, order remedial action, and make the necessary apology to former
President Rawlings’s wife and family, and the Ghanaian people.
He also asked the Congress to take steps to stop the CIA
from using malign activities to legitimize the US Ghana Defense Treaty.
“It should make no difference to your consideration of the
outrageous disclosures in this letter that after former President Rawlings’
death, his widow Nana Konadu endorsed President Akufo-Addo’s re-election.
Whether at that moment she is aware of the impetus for her husband’s death, she
is from a part of the country whose population favours the NPP and, as a
politician in her own right, had to make her own calculation “.
