Indeed, any throat-slasher dreads of lying flat on their back
A very popular Akan proverb to cast insinuation at a wicked person who turns around to protest against a perceived harm about to be inflicted on him by others, goes thus, Atwitwa mmene biara suro ayeya nda . Literally translated into English as, Any throat-slasher dreads of lying flat on their back . It is mostly when you lie flat on your back with your throat facing up that a throat-slasher can easily slash it with a stroke of his sharp knife or cutlass/machete, hence such expert murderers always avoiding sleeping in that position, so the adage imports.
