A few years ago, while chasing unproven criminal connections between former President Mahama and the untimely demise of President Mills, an insider from the Mill's camp unintentionally summed up a core principle of natural justice : “If you kill your boss and take over his position, you should be rigorously investigated and charged if the evidence and law merit it.” Well, it has been more than twelve years since the demise of President Mills, and it does appear the day of reckoning is in sight for those who had a hand in his death.
