A flourishing job of young Ghanaian performer Gemann Geeman aka “Ghana Michael Jackson” was abruptly cut short after his conviction for murder in the late 90s.
The replica “Moon walk” dance from Michael Jackson was a reason for many Ghanaians to believe at the time Gemann Geeman was a talented pop star whose rise to highest levels will be organic and lasting.
Like wishes aren’t horses that beggars would go, Gemann was hit by the law suit, which made him record all his losses, and then name them one after another. In just a few days his fame waned and his standing was tarnished. his life was thrown into a trough.
What’s the story that led to the sudden demise of Ghanain popular singer Gemann Geeman? And why was he tried for murder?
Let’s dive into it.
Geeman was an Ghanaian dancer before my birth, around the 1970s, with the style of an exact copy of Michael Jackson’s fashion.
Geeman was later awarded the title of accurate dancer in the world , and went on a worldwide tour with Geeman’s Michael Jackson dance and music style.
Jagapee visited his friend Gemann who was anticipating a visit from, Nadia, a lady friend who wanted to become an actor. They were just three when they visited Geeman’s residence. Jagger Pee, Geeman, and a woman called Vic.
Nadia took taxis and told Geeman that the cost is $3000 Cedis (30 pesewas in the present). Geeman was dissatisfied and the driver claimed that the price agreed to was 4000 Cedis instead of 3000 Cedis.
Geeman demanded 3000 dollars and threw the money in the taxi. The driver left and returned a short time after. He returned to take the sand from beneath Gemann’s footprints to make use of it as a spiritual objector to Gemann.
It annoyed Geeman to the max. Geeman returned to his bedroom and pulled out a pistol and went straight for his driver and friends. Jagger Pee was in the driver’s presence in order to prevent him from running away.
Geeman fired warning shots and direct shots towards the motorist. The driver was killed immediately.
Vic, Jagger Pee, Nadia Geeman, Jagger Pee, Vic Geeman were the four individuals detained.
Nadia And Vic were released and cleared after a few years in court. Jagapee is sentenced life imprisonment for aiding and abiding by the murder, while the primary criminal, German, was sentenced to die.
In the event of an appeal Jagapee’s sentence was lowered to two years retrospectively However, Geeman’s verdict was confirmed.
Since no president has endorsed any death sentence since the end of 1993, anyone who is on the death list gets a life sentence imprisonment.
The time President Kufour granted certain Ghanaians pardons prior to his departure at the end of 2009 Geeman had been included in the lists. In an interview recently, Geeman declared that relatives of the taxi driver who died asked the court for the driver released.
The world was at the feet of Jagapee in the 1990s. Today the situation has turned against Jagapee. Jagapee didn’t fire the gun and didn’t possess a gun, but He was the one who was holding the victim.
Geeman was trying to stop the victim from removing the sand from Geeman prior to being shot. It didn’t matter.
Geeman is currently an International Evangelist who travels the world spreading the Gospel.
Geeman considered it to be God’s way of finding him. Jagger Pee would not agree in the event of heartache, and had no money to address it. The positive side is that he got help and was allowed to undergo surgery.
With his reputation in disarray and therefore uninteresting to be cast in roles Jagger Pee travelled to the UK and stayed there at least five years.He was exiled somewhere in 2006 before returning to the film industry but without much success. He’s currently in the popular Chorkor Trotro.
