    I beg to differ! A normal person does not supervize abduction, graft, murder, beating of women, etc. A normal person as President would not beat up his vice president! A normal person would not supervize the killing of Felli ...

    Fellow Ghanaians

    What this sick goat, a poetaster by letter is telling us is that she holds the only view on JJ and anybody with a different view is uneducated, untrained, and letterless. Th ...

    I was previously not a fan of Rawlings because of the bad things he did in the past, especially during the AFRC and PNDC eras. However, as years went by and I gathered more information about him, my attitude towards him becam ...

    The writer says a balancing of Rawlings' good and bad aspects makes him a "normal" man. He didn't say "normal" is "good". Akadu, you're the one making that equation. The writer admires Rawlings for keeping to his convictions. ...

  • Sani 11 years ago

    This is not Akadu's. Whoever is stealing someone else's moniker is a real scumbag.

    Without necessarily excusing excesses in any Revolution, can Akadu tell us of any Military Revolution that had the leaders act "normally" in her estimation?

    In all practicality, Revolutions are not normal, day-to-day, civi ...

    It is only a thief that can assume a fake sex.

  • Sani 11 years ago

    That comment may not have been by Akadu. It doesn't look like his style. Someone has been using her moniker. Akadu doesn't write such long comments - unlike you, lol.

  • Michael Adzima 11 years ago

    Yes JJ is an icon of being principled always. My family and I have suffered under AFRC,but I cannot take his principled stance from him. We are all sinners and evil. Look at your self. He is more democratic than most of his h ...

    It seems strange now but Rawlings appears not to be generating as much comment as before.Ghanaians appear to be suffering from Rawlings Fatigue. JJ Rawling's fall from grace is now total and complete especially now that he h ...

    Mawuli and guys like him have thick logs blocking the normal venting in the brain, so they can't reason. They are like Zombie.

    Amedume and others were "Jumbo-size" criminals like JJR himself fondly described them.

    JJ's power grab was was a grossly personal score settling event that further worsened Ghana's problems. During his years of iron fisted rule he promised to eradicate corruption and institute probity and accountablity. Today, ...

    So?

    When he was beating the drums for the eradication of corruption, where were you? Rawlings brought back corruption, right?
