Lungu, I want your opinion about the attempted coup against the Burundi President who wants to run for a third term against his country's constitution.
Do you think the "Coupists" are justified in their attempt to remove him by force or he should be allowed to run? Waiting for your response, Professor.

Lungu, I thought the overwhelming evidence clearly shows the One Party State, President for Life and the PDA precipitated the overthrow of the messiah or the redeemer. I am not a fun of Rawlings, but some coups are justifiable. Nkrumah's comes to mind. But Limann 's was clearly uncalled for.

Kwadwo, I am trying to get Lungu opinion about whether the coup attempt in Burundi was justified. I already have one Nkrumaist saying the coup in Burundi was justified. I need Lungu opinion about that coup.

Kojo T,
But, Mr. Indemnity Rawlings is also telling us the past is a guide for the future.
So, what purpose/integrity is Jerry Rawlings serving when he now says, as reproduced above:
"...The Ghana Armed Forces as I used to know it is an institution with a very high level of integrity and quite frankly much as we are happy with the fact that military interventions are becoming events of the past we also must wake up to the fact that the proper way of preventing those interventions is through proper governance, maintaining integrity in government and remaining accountable to the people..." (23 May 2015).
QUESTION: Might that be the proper frame of reference for Jerry Rawlings to bring to the table, for the future?
Seems to us nation wreckers have no responsibility to propose solutions.
And when they have Indemnity Clauses on their behind, don't it behoove them to be circumspect in their utterances and actions, when we know a lot of people are in their corner, many for the wrong reason(s)?
Thanks.

I wonder how fakes like you and your murderous star JJ see when you take a look at yourselves in the mirror?
What reflections do the mirrors give back to you?
Aren't you ashamed of yourselves of the lies you ethnocentrics live?
You talk about Nkumaism like you know what that stands for.
Did you really understand Nkrumah of blessed memory and what he stood for?
I don't think so.
You are just a "mimicker". Nothing more!
Nkrumah was neither an ethnocentric bigot nor a fake "Pan Africanist". He was the real deal and I'll bet he weeps and turns in his grave every time copycats like you and the blood-thirsty vampire like JJ profess to be what the two of you are DEFINITELY NOT... and that is PAN AFRICANISTS.
You two are just lip-service Nkrumaists... just using that moniker to hide your hardcore ethnocentric tendencies. You can't even tolerate your own Ghanaian brothers and sisters of different tribal leanings and you have the audacity to talk about a continental platform where more than two thousand different tribes might be encompassed.
Just blowing hot air to make yourself look good on paper is downright deceitful if not ungodly.
SHAME UNTO YOU, YOU HOLLOW-MINDED FAKE!!!!

Are you Nkrumahists against or for that Burundi attempted coup? I Lungu is afraid of that question, are there any known Nkrumahists columnist on this website willing to address that question?

The fact that President Nkurunziza refuses to honor the Burundian constitution,does not mean the Military should step in.The core of his argument is that he is elegible to stand again this month for his "second term",because the Burundian constitution (2005)which(in non legalese)says the president should stand for two five-year terms by 'universal sufferage', does not apply to his earlier election by the National Asembly - after the civil war and before the constitution was drawn up.
In a sense,Nkurunzizi is saying that his first election in post - transition which was not by universal suffrage,should not count towards the mandated two terms restriction.He was supported by the Constitutional Court of Burundi in its ruling. However,the Chairman of the African Union that brokered the deal to end the civil war(300,000 Burundians deaths)in Arusha - the Arusha Peace Accord,2005 - disagrees with the Constitutional Court's decision.
In view of these different interpretations of the constitution by both sides,was it necessary for the Military to intervene? The answer is a qualified NO!
First,as former Harvard Professor Samuel Huntington has shown,the Praetorian Guard in newly independent and developing countries,fare worse than the civilians they overthrow.(We in Ghana don't have to look beyond our borders).
Second,Burundi not too long ago ended a civil war(inter-tribal) with 300,000 deaths and 40,000 fleeing the country.Its nascent democracy,with POWER SHARING between the majority Hutus(80%) and minority Tutsis(15%),is still fragile and tenuous. Any civil war precipated by a successful coup led by Tutsis,will undoubtedly bring about a possible genocide and major refugee problems.
Third,already there's a lot of pressure on President Nkurunziza coming from aid donors in the West,the UN and the African Union,to vacate the presidential palace,as his term end this month.
Overall,sqeezing recalcitrant leaders diplomatically and economically(SOFT POWER )to quit is far better and the "lesser of two evils",than to support coups which later lead to repression,looting of state treasury,and counter coups.
GHANA HAS BEEN THERE,DONE THAT !
