Let Jah Be Praised

Hello,

My name is Mario and I welcome you to My Path.

I would like to back-track a moment or two and would like to take a step back in my brain's to share something I have been holding on to since mid-October. There was a very small note made in the local newspaper then about "Jamaica honors Wailer Peter Tosh"...

...so brief, it made me sick in the heart. So let me share it with you.

"Twenty-five years after his murder, Jamaica's government on Monday honored the contributions of reggae musician and song writer Peter Tosh. His daughter Niambe, an educator from Boston, received the post-humous order of merit - the country's third highest honor - on behalf of her father in Kingston. Tosh was a founding member of the Wailers, forming the three-man core with Bob Marley and Bunny "Wailer" Livingston. Tosh was killed at age 42 in 1987 by robbers in his home."

That's it. This what we get when the government is run by the White Ruler's. Seen.

No photo or quotes or songs mentioned. Twenty-five years after his execution? I have always suspected the Jamaican government having involvement in this. There are many others with same idea in mind.

Perhaps better late than never, but really. Mr. Tosh, loved his country more than his country loved him. Apparently this is made obvious by this twenty five year delay.
