At the hearings of the National Reconciliation Commission in Accra on June 1, 2004, a Captain Koda is said to have reported that Colonel Kwame Baah and others were supposed to be among a third batch of officers to be executed during the era of the Armed Forces Revolutionary Council. This was never carried out. His successor as foreign minister, Col. Roger Felli was however executed along with five other army officers on June 16, 1979.
