This is good from the former president. All over the civilized world people engage in vigils as a form of protest or advocating for a cause. But in Ghana, the hypocrisy smells to the high heavens, especially on this issue.

NDC politicians have stolen enough, now they have started insulting all of us. These days, every thief talks to Ghanaians just anyhow. Fiifi Kwetey taged Ghanaians as '' kindergarten children''. GENERAL AKUFFO run to the Clergy during the 1979 coup because of the respect Ghanaians had for them. Today, NDC has made nonsense of that. they insult the clergy like there is no head on their body. Remember, how they treated how women, ''3Y3 KANEA, 3Y3 HAAN.'' Recently, it was a call to pass a law that will allow them to stone our women when they make mistakes. Today, NDC is labeling our WOMEN CELEBRITIES WHO ARE NOT YET MARRIED AS PROSTITUTES. NDC is disrespecting our women and Ghanaians in general, and it is getting worse by each passing day. Remember Ayariga's insult of our JOURNALISTS. VOTE MAHAMA AND HIS USELESS AND DISRESPECTFUL NDC OUT IN 2016.

It is unbelievable that people still take this clown so serious that they even consider airing his views.

Listen to him "“Our sister Yvonne Nelson is expressing her concerns and insults are being rained on her. It’s not fair. Is that how to do politics?” Since when did Rawlings begin to understand that people can air their views? Even worse of all is his allusion about whether the vitriol that Yvonne Nelson has suffered, is the way to do politics?

Very clearly this man thinks - or rather knows that most Ghanaians are idiots and fools and that is how he can publicly make such shameless hypocritical statements.

It is good to hear former military dictator, Rawlings condemning politicians who insult citizens for expressing their opinion, because there should be freedom of expression. But when did he get this epiphany? He should demonstrate his sincerity by apologizing to the family and the nation for all the patriots he murdered. His hypocrisy is becoming more offensive and tribal.

Who took this precious nation into the jungle? Who instigated a coup that sent our best senior officers to a demon's squad ? Who advocated lawlessness to the exterme that nearly sent Ghana into a civilian war? Who created the NDC that bears every mark of distinguished trouble makers ? Which party is the most corrupt today as regards to public funds stealing and judgement debts? Akans paid their price with every sacrifces , and sometimes with even their blood, to make ghana a better place for their children and fore children.A humble place to live. Yet look at what you and your fucking NDC have done. A land of Uprisers, where thieves are Kings and Queens without crowns. The Madness of a chosen few . Akans need time! Let these dragons spew their endless fire !

Would JJ have tolerated the insults rained on the President by these artistes, during his time as President? He has been insulting his own party people and even refered to some of them as babies with sharp teeth for daring to question his actions. He wants to be respected but the President can be insulted. He should have cautioned the artistes to use decent language when addressing the president.

There was no need whatsoever sending NDC attack dogs on a weak woman trying to make a living but hindered by power crisis caused by incompetent and corrupt government. In the end the NDC propaganda machine is broken, more Ghanaians are seeing the arrogance, deceit and the contempt this government has for the common man. Why attack people with genuine concerns and brand them opposition , prostitutes, non performers and useless? Obviously, it is Mahama who is anti Ghana, incompetent and corrupt. President wasting precious time to attack citizens instead of helping them to do their work. President who spends time insulting people with grievances, instead of working with them to solve national problems. NDC has ended up exposing their arrogance and hatred for the truth.

If I were the President I will not solve Dumsor now. After all govt gets additional taxes from the sale of more fuel for generators. The nation needs more money to service the growing national debt, and unpaid common funds, school feeding, pension, etc. So so called celebrities stop harassing the President to solve dumsor now. Just allow him a few more months to rake in more taxes to reduce our debts. This is reality.

I do not support politics of insults.Nevertheless,it takes two to tango.The celebrities should first show respect to the president of the Republic.Lydia Forson who can well be the president's daughter made disparaging remarks suggesting the president was stupid.Sometimes some of the insults directed at the president show gross disrespect of the highest magnitude.I fully agree with Sam George that there have been so much disrespect and disregard for the Office of the President in recent times.Just last two weeks i was shocked to have seen children as young as 6 years running around,singing and insulting the president at around 6:30 pm when they should be in-doors in Abuabo,kumasi just because he was out of the Country with 'Dumsor' in place.This followed the previous episode of Head Teachers incredibly organizing primary school kids to protest against the president.It is amazing these ignorant kids are now being drafted and used as tools of protest against the Mahama goverment for political expediency.The countless ,unnecessary demonstrations and protest matches maybe counterproductive as it will only succeed in destabilizing a crisis government further.What the president needs is ideas and support because governance is not about the individual Mahama.One can only be suspicious of deliberate hatched plans targeted at destabilizing the Mahama government to make it unpopular for political expediency.My conviction comes from the expulsion of doctors from the Ghana Health Service accused of being NDC sympathizers and purported to have campaigned for President Mahama immediately after the 2012 election in the midst of the court petition hearing challenging his presidency.Those doctors cruelly and illegally dismissed since 2012 will certainly not be happy with this current government.They have every reason to be bitter because they were obvious victims of political and tribal attacks by the hierarchy of GHS led by the DG Appiah Denkyira who stoop so low to falsely implicate them with a mental illness to dismissed them through an indefinite suspension from a public institution on the bases of same in a conspiracy against them.It was an irresponsible,irrational act by a high public office holder.Anybody will have a problem with a regime they purportedly supported in which a dubious and fraudulent political and tribal persecution of this sort is encouraged in public institutions. Worse still is when an NDC guru in the person of then Health Minister Alban Bagbin is used to achieve the diabolic aim since the doctors(a northerner and an ewe)were persecuted as NDC functionaries under the cover of a mental illness by mainly Akans who are known NPP functionaries at the helm of affairs in GHS.What we did was to proceed to file a case in the high court against the Ghana Health Service in the midst of frustrations and direct threats to our lives to unfairly cover the case and deny us justice.We did not go about on social media lunching scathing attacks with the most unprintable words on the person of the president of the Republic with hind sight that he probably is unaware of some of the corrupt practices in public institutions giving his government problems.As the Founder said let's encourage politics of discourse in the interest of the nation devoid of blatant insults.We the youth should show a good example by respecting elders but elders should reciprocate this kind gesture by showing high moral aptitude for us to emulate.It is most unfortunate a Director General of a public institution like Ghana Health Service will stoop so low to dubiously and fraudulently fabricate a mental illness on colleague junior doctors to dismiss them merely because of tribal and political hate.He has not shown the needed maturity and moral aptitude expected of him and cannot be a good example to the youth.

I have no problem concerning May 16th demonstration but my humble question is that, how significant will this demonstration affect the current situation? Isn't it better if we as celebrities come together and join hands with the government to curtail if not eradicate the problem than employing our resources both physical and spiritual on an event we know very well will not change with mere demonstration. The government needs money to solve this problem! Let us help by sponsoring projects that will add to the existing power generating plants.

Some of us claim we are educated but it's a lie. We are equal to those in the villages without education. How can we abuse people ova their views as Ghanaian? We just type to insult elderly people as if they are our age mates. Can we insult our parents back home. Bible made us understand that who eva insult an elderly person has shortened his or her life and that is exactly what we are doing. How u open ur mouth in d name of Democracy and insult a president? Where are yr manners? If ur teacher has forgotten to teach u, what abt ur parent

Was Jerry allowing vigils during his time as head of state and president?This man is a hypocrite and so is the wife.
This man's wife told the whole country that during her husband reign as president,they were financially handicapped to the extent that her family supported her financially to cater for the children.
So,where did she get the money to buy the Nsawam Canary and also be a shareholder of Ghana Rubber Estate Limited.
Jerry,the apostle of probity and accountability looked unconcerned for the wife to acquire a lot without any payment whatsoever.
