  "summary": "Former Ghanaian musician Terry Bonchaka's manager, Reagan Mends, has recounted a mysterious experience he had the night before the artiste's death in 2003. According to Mends, he felt someone tap his shoulder while he was alone in his room around 11:45 p.m. on the fateful Thursday. This incident occurred shortly after he had gone to bed, and it frightened him, especially considering he had earlier dreamed of an accident involving Bonchaka and himself. The dream had prompted Mends to pray for protection, fearing it could be a warning about a possible accident during their planned trip to Kumasi. Mends believes the tap he felt in his room happened immediately after Bonchaka's death and interprets it as the musician's spirit coming to see him. He insists that Bonchaka died on October 30, not October 31, as some people have come to believe, citing the timing of the accident and his own experience that night.",
