Inusah is a good man! - J.J.

Ex-President Jerry John Rawlings has described Alhaji Inusah, the man who left his mother party (New Patriotic Party) to flirt with the National Democratic Congress (NDC) as a good man who the NPP does not deserve, reports The Crusading Guide.

"I still think he is a good man but it is rather unfortunate that he has made a mistake of going back. Maybe it is because of the harassment exercise that is going on and maybe he may have some other reasons for going back. But I still think he is a good man, and they (NPP) don't deserve him", said ex-President Rawlings on an Accra-based private radio station (Choice FM) last Friday evening.

The ex-President of Ghana submitted that the terror tactics being used by the NPP is beginning to intimidate some people, adding that it might have been the reason for Alhaji Inusah's dramatic move to the NPP.

"The terror tactics I think is beginning to intimidate a few people, maybe that is why he has gone back", Rawlings said.

On the replacement of his Military Security Guards with Police Personnel, Rawlings disclosed that his security guards know his preferences and needs because they have lived with him for a long time. He added that they (Military Security Guards) are able to walk freely into his bedroom. "They have taken away people who have been close to me, close enough where they can walk into my bedroom," he said.
