that was some badass bad English, Sarpong. everything that can go wrong is here - waffling, wrong context, syntax, superfluity of sentences and spelling not forgetting the misinformation and bias. rawlings saved ghana with or without the atrocities. why cant africans realise that sacrifices are required in nation building and that deaths in history has a way of guiding subsequent generations on the decent things to do as humans and citizens with responsibilities to one another? HE WHO SAVES A NATION VIOLATES NO LAW. the kotei, quaye, acheampong, amedume, utuka, sarkodie, afrifa, akuffo, felli and boakye shed their blood that we ghanaians will consolidate the nation and forge a democratic path as a modern concern of the united nations. today history tells us that the majority of ghanaians have come tp terms with the overall picture of what the world expects, then, of nkrumah's gahana. rawlings took the challenge and from his efforts we have homegrown statesmen worthy of that on the world stage; rawlings, kuffour, kofi annan and the late john arthur mills. forget the pain of the afrc period and look up

For the fact that one cannot aford to buy yourself two square mills does not permit him to take up guns to kill in order to survive. That is purely ARMED ROBERY.

Rawlings is a pure rogue and a criminal.It is sad that some stupid ghanaians have elevated him to 'political sainthood' though he is not.For overthrowing the democratic elected government of Dr Hilla Limann Rawlings should be arrested and put on trial for treason.He talks about accountability and probity and yet during his period in office corruption was rife and his ministers and other appointees amassed wealth.He put a stop to Ghana's industrial progress by arresting industrialists like Appia Menka,the late Siaw and in some cases confiscating their factories.Whoever approved june 4th to be a holiday must have lost his sense of good judgement for it ushered in a period of nonentities rule and disrespect for the elderly who were stripped naked and whipped in public.

June 4th was indeed an armed robbery. Rawlings, the air force pilot whose "credit card" ensured a daily "yoo ke gari" meal from "Daavi" was so down on his luck he had to steal seats from an old air force plane and convert them into living room furniture.He together with his wife registered 300,000 old worthless cedis on the Assets Declaration forms when he sought to become our first democratically elected president of the 4th republic . Today he's listed in Forbes Magazine as worth a cool $50 million.As disconcerting and ugly as this bombshell may feel, a whimper and a whine crescendoing to the old fashioned Rawlings ravings and rantings must not be unexpected but he can fool us no more. A long time ago we stopped being his idiots and besides, wealth detests cocealment.
The Constituent Assembly's late night smuggling of the Indemnity Clause into the 1992 Constitution stipulated that whatever acts Rawlings and his men committed while in office, corruption included, cannot be prosecuted under our law.
It's rumored that Rawlings and his men were resettled with various sums of money by the Limann administration. Rawlings allegedly received 100,000 ,a house and a car whilst the others received 50,000 each. Who is rawlings kidding? The insertion of the Indemnity clause was an admission of guilt by those it was meant to shield from prosecution.
Mr Rawlings gangster type marauding band of soldiers did not spare womanhood. In some of the cities naked women were made to crawl on their hands and knees while being whipped on their behind.The forced stripping of women and their whipping in public is a despicable criminal act and must be considered as a violent attack and a crime against humanity just like rape.It was a gang rape.
June 4th is a dark indelible blotch on our history . It's a cautionary tale that must be told every generation of ghanaians with the warning "Never Again". It pales in comparison to the Holocaust in terms of the atrocities and the millions of Jewish lives lost but we should never ever forget June 4th lest it happens again.
