In 1979 when Rawlings forced himself on to the Ghanaian Political theater i was then 25 years old then living at kokomlemle -Accra.I therefore,know all the "bad bad things Rawlings don do" to quote the BLACK PRESIDENT THUS SAINT FELA ANIKULAPO KUTI.Rawlings can dilute the facts in the book but we the people of that era don't need any editorial by murderous and ARMED ROBBER rawlings,because we witnessed all the murders, atrocities,corruptions,tribalism,nepotism,intimidations,wanton disrespect and arrest of people during curfew,jealous confiscations of peoples businesses and properties,lynching of naked market women infront of their families, stealings are all he WROTE.But facts must not be twisted by Rawlings.The book is good for posterity and those who were in diapers during rawlings infamous era who see him as somebody!

Omnipresent describes something present everywhere at the same time. If we take your logic and and that of like-minded literally, then Rawlings must surely possess such powers then.
I was also in Accra and was witness to some of the atrocities of those heady days, the one indelibly etched on my mind was the infamous "hain-kanie" incident where on the command of soldiers, "transgressing" women would open their legs apart, exposing their private part and closing them. I also heard of the widely reported incident in Koforidua market where a woman was compelled to consume some of the pepper she was selling because it was allegedly exorbitantly priced. The list can go on and on and on and not once will anybody definitively put the physical presence of the "devil" called Rawlings at the scenes.
I have always had difficulty with those who distort facts for their two minutes of fame. From Nkrumah's government through Ankrah, Busia, Linman,Kuffour and Mills, wrongs were committed by the over-zealots without the say so of the incumbent. My personal experience was nearly being frog-marched because we were visiting a relative who was a driver at Public Works and failed to stand when the military liaison officer (military honcho in-charge of Public Works) was being dropped at his Ministry. Should I have gone around blaming Rawlings for the experience? NO!!! Facts must not be twisted as you succinctly put it or we shall be doing those in diapers and posterity a lot of disservice.
As for Mr PHD blaming a LEGAL COUNSEL for taking the case of Rawlings in a dispute with his "maternal uncle", the least said the better as it shows the type of educated mentality at work.

We see on this forum and all over the place the wickedness and evil being promoted by these ndc idiots in our midst . Their message and propaganda only result in hate and death. They want to use divide and rule tactics so do their best to turn the Fantis and Brongs against the rest of the Akans so their undeclared war against us is ongoing. Fantis are not as illiterate or stupid as you wish so are not buying the Anti Ashanti hate propaganda you sell since they know it only beefs up the general Anti Akan agenda you promote . The undeclared warfare against the Akans is recognized for what it is and these youth with justice in their hearts will not follow this ndc treachery no longer . Tribalist northers and hegemony of the ewe are the only ones who in their stupidity think the suffering of others means their benefit . Nobody believes in the fake ashawo govt and we shall make our country better by relying only on ourselves and hard working people , all they have now is the deep resentment and our despising approach . their govt is spoilt rotten with their corruption meant to keep the Akans in poverty but God is on our side and we shall prosper , their skinpain will kill them off one by one .only an illiterate fool like does not see the catastrophe this pepeni govt has brought upon us . Fitch is only confirming what we have been saying all along and that is mahama's incompetence , corruption and idiotic stubborn foolishness has destroyed all the positive efforts of all past govts including his former boss mills who he murdered . the bloody revolution will cleanse this menace once and for all

The problem is that there is nothing good to write about that son of a bitch. Rawlings is a kleptomaniac murderer and that is all you can say about that Scottish bastard.

Kwame I have great respect for your articles but I think in this case you are below par regarding Atta Akyea. Atta is a lawyer and not a politician. Are you saying that Atta never have taken this case or allow his practice to take the case because his uncle is the other party? I thought you are a self-style disciple of democracy. Are you now moving the goal post because it suits your purose? Let me tell you something, if you write with emotion instead of logic, you will always make a fool of yourself. My brother, stick logic and facts so I will keep enjoying your articles.

I was then about seventeen. In incarceration, Rawlings would have been killed if he were not to be liberated by his fellowmen. In the wake of the revolution, there were both positive and negative side effects. There were even other failed counter coups d'etat. The architects of them were either killed or took refuge in other countries; perhaps you Kwame were one. Yes, Rawlings' role his played in Ghanaian politics should be covered in full but not only hammering on only the negative excesses. And whatever may be contained in Prof. Danso-Boafo's book is not what I'm about. But I'm about you, Kwame Okoampa-Ahoofe. Hatred flows in your veins, especially against the Ewes and even those who don't follow your narrow banded mind of thinking within your own political party. You and the likes of you are the problem for Ghana. Can you, for once, write a piece of article that will talk of love, unity and onward progress of Ghana?

Okoampa-Ahoofe, you're a hypocrite. Distance has never been an issue with you as you post your daily worthless articles here about happenings in Ghana. You were merely sitting on the sidelines to see the opportune time to pretend to be in support of Professor Danso-Boafo. Okoampa-Ahoofe is a failed and worthless academic. Professor danso-Boafo does not need you as a mouthpiece, for he's capable of taking on the fight without the aid of your lunatic articles, Ahoofe.
