Hello brothers and sisters I am Ghanaian my love for honourable Marley, I cry most of the time listen to his messages, the Americans kill him , And it effected my life?jah Guard
His message was a protest against injustice , a comfort to the oppressed . He sang there, he performed there, his message reached there and everywhere. Today’s funeral service is an international right for a native son. He was born in a humble cottage , nine miles from Alexandria, in the parish of St. Ann. He lived in the western section of Kingston as a boy, where he joined in the struggle of the ghetto. Bob Marley learned the message of survival in his boyhood days in Kingston’s west end. But it was his raw talent, unswerving discipline and sheet perseverance , that transported him from another victim of the ghetto, to the top ranking superstar of the entertainment field in the third world. Jamaica was always a part of his international work. His work is now over and he returns to his home. Visionary that he was, he foresaw this, as he hurriedly flew back to his homeland when he realised his work was over, death meeting him on the way. He immortalised these words in his own creation: “Fly away home to Zion, fly away home. One bright morning when my work is over, I will fly away home.” May his soul find contentment in the achievements of his life and rejoice in the embrace of Jah Rasta. Remembrance Edward Seaga Prime Minister of Jamaica 21st May, 1981.
Whatever one may think of him, Edward Seaga took a monumental step in his final salute to Brother Bob when he said Bob would rest in the warm embrace of Jah Rastafari. The symbolism of the once despised now embraced as top ranking cannot be missed. Sad that have not moved from nice words towards the peace, love and unity society Bob Marley favored.
