It is only in Ghana that Rawlings can be forgiven for the murders and atrocities he committed. It saddens when ever he opens his mouth and taunts the families of those he murdered. Someone should put him out. He is a butcher.

If I were the son of any of the noble men killed by Rawlings, I will find a way to kill him at any time. The constitution must be changed to permit the trial of Rawlings. Else, I pray a strayed bullet opens up his head.

AUTHOR: EBO QUANSAH---------------Dear reader, forgive me for diverting from the topic I promised yesterday. I have been compelled by Jerry Rawlings’ outburst in Nigeria about corruption, as if he himself is a saint. I am compelled to do this expose on the former junta head for those who do not know his role in promoting corruption as a national concept. Read on!
In June 1979, eight top military officers, including three former heads of state, were lined up and executed at the Teshie Military Firing range in two batches. Gen. Ignatius Kutu Acheampong, Gen. Frederick William Kwasi Akuffo, Gen. Robert Kotei, Lt-Gen. Akwasi Amankwaa Afrifa, Rear Admiral Joy Amedume, Air Vice-Marshall George Yaw Boakye, Emmanuel K. Utuka and Colonel Roger Felli were accused of corrupting the body politic.
In an interview with New Nation, a monthly magazine circulating in Nigeria and now defunct, the Chairman of the Armed Forces Revolutionary Council, which supervised over the most famous case of extra-judicial killings in the history of the political evolution of Ghana, justified the action of his military junta as a necessary action to rid the body politic of corruption.
“They were jumbo-sized armed robbers whose killings left the world smelling nicer,” Flt-Lt. Rawlings was quoted by the magazine as saying in explanation.
Jerry Rawlings said the officers had to be killed, “because Ghana was faced with their type of thievery breed of criminals who were worse than Nigeria’s armed robbers” in the 1970s.
“Now, I’ll tell you what we have here. We have a breed that is, perhaps, worse than your armed robbers,” he told reporters of the New Nation in an exclusive interview. “They are the pen robbers. These species of vermin have for long perpetrated corruption with impunity.
“They have not only bled the nation white, but as a result of their thievery, Ghana has suffered hunger, loss of national spirit, loss of pride and respect in the military uniform. So, as you can see, while Nigerians have perceived their main social problems to be the proliferation of six Naira armed robbers, we, in Ghana, think that our problem is that of people who take widow’s mite from a bankrupt nation.”
In the words of the ex-junta head: “While you (Nigeria) content yourself at the Bar Beach by watching the executions of mal-adjusted labourers, mechanics or clerks, we in Ghana, have killed the jumbo armed robbers, call them generals or brigadiers – whose going to leave the world smelling sweeter.”
One interesting thing about this claim is that Jerry Rawlings and his righteous AFRC members could not account for monies lodged in AFRC Account 48, which was specially created to lodge huge monies paid by businessmen and other persons and institutions found guilty by a so-called people court to have corrupted the system. Monies from seized goods auctioned to the public at so-called control prices were also lodged in the account.
When President Hilla Limann took power after the AFRC had left the scene on September 24, 1979, the new Head of State complained that there was nothing in the coffers, insinuating that the famous Account 48 could not be traced.
When Flt-Lt. Rawlings, who had refused to accept the new government’s offer to go on course abroad, was questioned on the disappearance of the huge lodgings in the account, he replied that he was not an accountant. Incidentally, the fate of PNDC Account 48, established by the second junta led by the same person, has not been accounted for as you read this piece.
One of the most interesting developments in Ghana’s political evolution was the decision to abolish the General Certificate of Examinations -Ordinary and Advanced levels- by the Provisional National Defence Council. The main reason given was that the old educational system had favoured only the children of the elite class.
At a time ordinary folks of the land were enrolling their children in what became known as the Junior and Senior Secondary schools, whose certificates -BECE and SCCE- were not recognised beyond the four corners of the country, Jerry Rawlings enrolled his children at the expensive Ghana International School in Accra to read subjects that qualified them to sit for the GCE Ordinary and the Advanced levels his PNDC administration had prohibited the mass of Ghanaian children from.
I do not believe corruption is only putting state money in one’s pocket. Exploiting state resources for one’s advantage could even be a worse form of corruption. That is why I have an axe to grind with Jerry Rawlings for enrolling all his children abroad to study with the GCE Ordinary and Advanced levels, acquired outside the formal sector in the country.
What I call Jerry’s Stupid Schools has debased education up to the tertiary level, where lottery numbers, other than real academic work, determines qualification at the first degree level.
To add insult to injury, when asked to tell Ghanaians how he was funding the education of all the three children -Ezanator, YaaAsantewaa and Kimathi- in expensive universities in Britain and Ireland, Jerry Rawlings looked at Ghanaians in the face and answered that unknown benefactors were picking up the bills for their fees.
The Almighty is a kind Lord. It emerged that companies the state of Ghana was dealing with and which were milking Ghana dry, were picking up the bills of Jerry Rawlings’ children. And such a person has the audacity to complain about leaders being corrupt.
I dare state that corruption was elevated into an art under Jerry Rawlings. The circumstances under which he transformed himself from a military dictator into a civil constitutional President smells of corruption all the way to the Castle.
After eleven and a half years of the ‘Gospel According to Jerry Rawlings,’ a period he himself identified as the ‘culture of silence’, Jerry Rawlings and those who claim to believe in him used the resources of state to convert his military oligarchy and the entire governance system into a political party. With the Electoral Commission and the entire process under his thumb, Jerry Rawlings exchanged his military garb for a description as Constitutional President of the Republic of Ghana. God Almighty should remain where he is.
The eight year administration he led, as Constitutional President of this Republic, eulogised corruption as a state-sponsored event. State asserts were transferred to cronies under the guise of divestiture. As you read this piece, Nsawam Cannery, one of the flagship projects of the now defunct Ghana Industrial Holding Corporation, belongs to Caridem, a company floated by Mrs. Rawlings’ 31st December Women’s Movement, in a purchasing agreement that parceled the company to Caridem for a pittance.
Under the Government of the National Democratic Congress Mark One, corruption festered on a large scale. It would take volumes to chronicle corruption under the NDC. But four prominent issues stand out. Getting to the end of the first term of office, newspapers that had been freed from the bondage of the culture of silence began chronicling evidence of corrupt deals by leading members of the regime.
In 1996, the Commission for Human Rights and Administrative Justice investigated one matter and established massive corrupt deals against Ibrahim Adam, then Minister of Agriculture, Colonel E.M. Osei Owusu, a former Minister of the Interior, P.V. Obeng, a Presidential Staffer, and Dr. Adjei Marfo, a Chief Executive Officer of a state-run company.
Instead of prosecuting them, the Government of Saint Rawlings rather issued a While Paper exonerating the corrupt elements, and rather indicted the media for highlighting the issue.
In Britain, Mabey and Johnson was prosecuted not too long ago for corruptly influencing Ghanaian politicians between 1994 and 1999 to gain bridge contracts, The news in these contracts is that barely one year after completing two bridges in Ghana, including one over River Oti, the Ghana Government had to contract experts from Britain to repair them as they threatened to cave in.
In 2002, the former Managing Director of Ghana Rubber Estates Limited, Mr. Etienne Arthur Marie Popeler, told an Accra Fast Track High Court that he gave millions of dollars to Mr. Dan Abodakpi, then Deputy Minister of Trade and Industry, Ms. Shirley Ayittey, then Treasurer of the 31st December Women’s Movement, in bribes before his French company, SIPH, could secure GREL.
The case of Ms. Cotton, an unemployed American, secured $20 million of scarce state cash from compromised state officials, ostensibly to grow rice for Ghanaians at Aveyime in the Battor area of the Volta Region. Even when Ghana’s Ambassador to the United States had sent a warning letter about the background of Ms. Cotton, and intimating that she was incapable of undertaking the task, state officials paid the money. As it turned out, the main motivating factor was the cut they all stood to make.
If corruption is endemic in the body politic after the so-called June 4, uprising, the genesis could be traced to Jerry Rawlings who executed eight Ghanaians officials on unproven trivial charges, and out-doored full- blown corruption as a state policy.
In other exposé next week, I intend to draw the link between the free for all looting that assails the body politic in the Mills-Mahama regime, and the adventure of Jerry John Rawlings as Head of State of this Republic. I shall return!

You Ghanaians are the most foolish people on the African continent. Some of you worship this armed robber and murderer like a king. Some of you call him junior jesus. Nowhere will such a devil be allowed to roam about freely in bullet proof vehicles and live in mansions all at the expense of the same people he terrorrised. After selling state assests to himself, his wife and his tribesmen he has become one of the five richest Ghanaians but still lives on, and catered for by, poor Ghanaians. Every now and then he adds insult to injury by commending himself for the numerous atrocities and evil deeds he commited against innocent citizens. He has remained above the laws of Ghana not only because of the indemnity clause but because Ghanaians, especially the so called soldiers and police are cowards and fear him.Let these armed forces compare themselves to their counterparts in Nigeria and what they did to Rawlings' criminal friend, Sanni Abacha. As long as Rawlings lives, Ghana will never have peace because of the corruption and trabalism he put in place and rigidly followed by his supporters and tribesmen.

Mahama and NDC can never do the right thing as they are burdened by their tribalism and corrupt souls . They think winning election gives them the right to the spoils of war so they can loot and ransack anything they can lay their hands on but they forget you got to actually do battle and shed blood first . coup de tats do not justify such wanton pillage and the sooner we organize our bloody uprising the better

You see our fate as Africans,we can never progress if majority of our populace think this way.What right do you have to do away with the life of others because you deem they are not fit to live.This is plain murdering but this is Africa,instead of being shunned forever or locked up in a cell to ponder on his fate,he comes out bravely loudmouthed to celebrate this act of terror.
If you are new on this earth,I will remind you of Miltary rulers in Argentine,Chile and Spain who being sent to jail for minor crimes.Our fate,yes our fate in Africa is tied to the way we applaud what is wrong and shun what is right.
We have lost courage and confidence and has given into roguish and brutish way of doing thing.

Rawlings has killed few elites to save a lot of poor and destitute who have no ways and means. Did you know how many those people killed by Rawlings starved innocent people to death before Rawlings came to stop their diabolic and latent genocide?.

Rawlings has sarcrificed a few self centerd elites to protect the majority. Those elites who Rawlings sarcificed their family to protect the poor majority have voice to tell what happened to their family. What about the majority whom these elites let their families straved to death and they have no voice to tell thier ordeal?.

Thoese who critisised Rawlings are the few elites who were angry, because Rawlings exposes thier evil deed. The poor majority loved and still love the Junior Jesus, our saviour. If you the elites doubt about it, conduct a refrendum and see what the majority will choose.

Rawlings and his cohorts justified then that they publicly killed the "corrupt top military personnel" and also secretly killed some civilians to stamp out corruption in Ghana and save the country's economy. However, the critical questions are: more than 30 years after the infamous firing squads spearheaded by "Indian hemp smoking mad man" Rawlings, is Ghana economy any better? Is Ghana a corrupt free society? Rawlings' holier than thou never ending pronouncements about corruption disguised under the glorification of the so-called June 4 Movement/Celebrations must cease. It only adds salt to the bitter wounds the bloodthirsty and divisive dictator has perpetuated in our beloved country. The man must remember that he who kills by the sword dies by sword.

JJ killed to stamp out curruption.
But what happened later? Why did Dr. Botchey resign under JJ?. Because he oppesed the transfer of 200 million dollars through GOIL(under Thikatah)
into their foreign accounts,saying it was too much. JJ slaped him and dismissed him. The finance minister was threatened he would be eliminated if he made this known. Who is corrupt, Achiampong, Kuffour, Yaw Boakye or JJ?

Just as the entire Israelite army shook to their bones at the outbursts of Goliath, it appears all Ghanaians are afraid-men and need a David to come and rescue them from this uncircumcised son of a harlot who keeps boasting of the atrocities of 1979 and 1981 to 2000. This man Rawlings justifies and celebrates treachery and murder as if he has no equal in the entire world. And the poor cowards of Ghana cower in their cots and only murmur to themselves as if they are hoping for the likes of Boko Haram to rescue them.
Until somebody stops him, this dog son of aliens will do all he can to set fire to Ghana before his time on earth is over. It was all the fault of the people who drafted the 1992 constitution! But who were these people? We must all blame these same corrupt lawyers and judges, the Atugubas, Tsikatas and Awoonors, who continue to perpetuate injustice in Ghana with impunity. But hope is on the horizon. It will not be too long!

You see, there are millions of Asantefuo as amply demonstrated on this bloc who requires civil education to make them better and civilised Ghanaians.
In hindsight, JJ should have invested very heavily in the JSS concept placing real emphasis on nationhood, civil education, cultural and ethnic awareness and presenting lessons in school to enhance practical issues unification and cohesiveness.
Such investment could have produced Ghanaians who could not be divided very easily on tribal by lines corrupt politicians.

Rawlings must be forgiven for he indeed had sinned against the people of Ghana.
What June 4, 1979 did for Ghana was to set Ghana back for a century.
Unless we abolish and stop the celebration of June 4, Ghana leaders will try to develop Ghana but will still fail.
The NDC is a curse and a rope around the peoples' necks.
The sins of our fathers shall be visited upon the children until the tenth generation.
Since June 4, 1979 what have the PNDC and the NDC brought us?
How can we invite any industry to Ghana when we cannot power our country with electricity?
We have oil and gas but our plight is "dumsor".
Rawlings is the reason Ghana is divided. I have not known tribalism until after June 4th, 1979.
If you want to repair Ghana, you better bring Dr Bawumia and Nana Akufo-Addo with their NPP to power to bring togetherness to all the people and try to repair the gloomy economy.
As long as we continue to lift the NDC to power we will not develop Ghana.
NDC is a blood stained party and God will allow sin to rule, but for a while, because the rule of righteousness is eternal.
The professor said it best:
"Professor Mike Oquaye, in an interview with Okay FM stated that former President Rawlings was rather rubbing salt into the wounds of generations whose family members suffered under his tyrannical regime anytime talks about the celebration comes up".

If he were to be corruption free and holy as he claims to be he would not smuggle that protective clause into the constitution. Rawlings should be bold enough and tell Ghanaians how he managed to sponsor all his children in big time universities in Britain whiles at the same time introduced JHS and SSS. Does he want to tell Ghanaians that his children are bigger than the Universties in the country? Holier than thou Rawlings give us a break and let us lick the wounds you created.

This time around, I support the Prof. It is time Rawlings realised majority of Ghanaians are fed up with his unguarded rhetoric. People lost their loved ones during that gruesome period, time has healed their wounds and griefs, but for this Rawlings fellow to continually harp on the virtues of June 4 is like rubbing salt into those healed wounds to freshen the wounds. Furthermore with this June 4 nonsense roaming the Ghanaian landscape annually, frayed nerves would continue to remain frayed.

The societal "ills" June 4 and December 31 sought to eradicate are still very much with us. It is good and proper that majority of Ghanaians should stand and speak with one voice to condemn this continual nonsense of celebrating June 4 and 31 December. Enough is enough.

Let Ghanaians call for a change in the 1992 constitution. People cannot commit crimes and hide behind some constitution they wrote. Only in Africa can this happen

and someone like JJ to keep them straight. Look how with the new found democracy, they have even corrupted the christianity. Church is the new money maker. Taking Ghanaians away from building industries and plants. They invest their money with idiots who walk around like princes. If all the tithing money was properly used in building industry, Ghana will do well. 23 million people, investing 10 dollars a month is 230 million dollars times 12. That amount of money invested abroad will give Ghanaians plenty to build their country. Instead they give it Otabil, Duncan williams, Dag Heward Hughes and the rest of the charlatans who walk over them and treat them like scum. Rawlings in his prime would have held these people accountable. If the pillar of morality(church) becomes tainted, the society has nothing left but wanton thievery and robbery with nothing to stop it. Just like what is happening now.

To straigthen them up. The mass executions, whippings and haircuts with broken bottles got Ghanaians behaving like law abiding citizens. You couldn't litter with impunity if you knew the consequences. Lazy secretaries and their bosses were eager to work because they knew they may be next. Even Kwesi Botchwey got his slaps occasionally to keep him from screwing the ordinary man. Ghanaians don't qualify for a democracy because they are not democratic by nature. The fact that one petty man can keep a life saving device at the airport for 4 years because he couldn't 'chop' from it is all the proof. Ghanaians need strong men to rule them. The indiscipline plaguing the country which has led to the economic stagnation and spiral can only be solved by whippings, beatings and harsh punishment. Woyome, RLG, Kuffour's and cronies and by extension the current bureacrats at the ministries will be no where if firing squads and beatings were permitted. If those who steal and cause financial losses to the country are drastically dealt with Ghana will be in a better. Unfortunately the thieves set the agenda for the next brand of thieves. Their lifestyle becomes the standards to be copied by the next aspirants. A perpetual revolution is required to keep Ghanaians honest and civil. Rawlings is a victim of his own delusions and hunger for power. He should behave a like a stateman and shut up. Or better he could use some of the stolen wealth to improve the whole country instead of only his family. A true revolutionary will never become that decadent and over indulged. Ghanaians should be made to sit up so they dont take the country and their countrymen for granted and cheat them out of life.

OBOONI,
Your English is awful,it stinks. Afrifa is waiting in hell to help you out with your English. Why do you use capital letters in your posts? You are just screaming and you sound very angry. JJ does not have to try it again. There are a good number of us ready, able and willing to do it again should corrupt gangsters like you try to jump unto the stage and usurp the constitution. Try it. We dare you!
