Rawlings, the humble and selfless leader!

If he comes right back right now and stands for presidential elections, he will still win! The guy was really charismatic, and in fact adored by the Ashantis. A thousand lies doesn't asphyxiate the truth.

Yes, he rigged almost every election by coercion or bringing in Togolese Trokosi AYIGBE people to vote for him. He did it always. He bribed the Ghana Ayigbe people with the help of the SOGAKOKPE maniacs and murderers to vote for him. Yes, and he bribed the people from the North whose sons and daughters were in the Military to vote for him but later abandoned him. People in Ghana have now learned enough sense.

Where is he now? Life is too short, and we will account for our actions one day. Don't let us not put emphasis on earthly things. Everything shall pass away.

Gnasingbe Eyadema, Mobutu Seseko,Abacha,Muammar Gaddafi etc also never lost an election in their life time.This is not an enviable history that Ghanaians shd be proud of may be to the Gangster party NDC they can boast of it.

Bad headline. I don’t even need to read the story to tell you it’s falsehood. Kuffour as President never lost an election. He became President in 2001 and won the 2004 election as president of Ghana. Of course in 2008 , he didn’t loose that election because he wasn’t a candidate. President Mahama is the only president who lost an election . Nana addo didn’t loose an election as PRESIDENT . Please , do better analysis

Is this news? Isn't it obvious that he was transited from revolutionary government to be democratically elected president? He might have even manipulated the results

By your own listing and description of his appearances on the political scene, he lost on 9th May 1979.

Let those who are young know that Rawlings stole the vote in 1992. He also lost his first attempt to rule in May 1979. To the young people please do not try to emulate the life, time and deed of J J Rawlings. He was a murderer. He was a thief. He abused his office. For example he used a state owned helicopter fueled by the tax payer to train his child how to fly. He committed a lot of atrocities. The youth should be careful of misinformation. Nonsense

Right, he never lost a genuine election but he was responsible for the DEMISE of many. Including a nursing mother.
