Sarp, don't you know Rawlings does not count himself amongst us mere mortals and is therefore above the law? Railings by the virtue of the drunk Scottish blood running through his veins think he is better than every Ghanaian and that is why he talks down to us. He knew he had killed innocent people that is why covered himself with the indemnity clause.

I have read through the comments of Trokosi Gersis, Kojo T, Dzikor and Princewilly, i'm yet to read from crazy bald head, C.Y. Andy K though - and I came to the conclusion that: either these Nyebros lack comprehension - which I doubt - or are just being plain idiots. The crust of the matter( which Sarpong has just demonstrated in this essay which is printed in plain and simple language for any buffoon to understand) is that, even if we put aside or overlook the illegality of what Rawlings said, thus the 'Trokosi Justice' which he is foolishly trying to prescribe for Ghanaians,he has no moral right to say what he said, judging from the fact he Rawlings himself is the father of all Senseless killings in our contemporary history. "Who born dog"? In fact Ghana is forever doomed, so far as we have these cassava grating so called Western Togoland Seperatists group dwelling among us. Mahama will win my vote, and Ghanaians will live happily ever after, if he grant them the permission to peacefully bow out. There would be enough fully grown fishes to feed my people since the fishing of those small fish they call Keta-Schoolboys will be a thing of the fast.

You people say the dumbest things to lose track of a good argument against bad people. And you become so illogical, you too might be guilty of murder, if you allow us to investigate you. In the same way one can declare a judge who sentences a murderer to death, an aide to an executioner.
Rawlings said, if you murder someone in cold blood, you deserve the death penalty. PERIOD. If anyone can bring evidence against Rawlings for murdering anybody in cold blood, I will be the executioner. Treason is also punishable by death...

Infact, fellow Ghanaians, these self appointed knights, who are high on their horses are capable of a cavalier and supercilious manner. Sarpong's mind is the type that plods along on 'foot'. His brain is lethargic. This guy, Sarpong is just a noisy braggart who ia still a sophist here on Ghanaweb.
Anybody who reads and quotes from the Daily Guide is sick or have a weak, muddled, and good-for-nothing brain. Indeed, such is the brain of this ill mannered boor, Sarpong!

I thought this diaper wearing octogenarian called GERSIS had gone into coma after spewing garbage on this site several years ago. The mention of his tin god Rawlings has awakened him up. I can imagine the hold this herd mentality called Nyebro has on him. The most blood sucking person and the biggest thief Ghana has had is Rawlings. Could he account for the 50 cedi bills he collected ? The selective killings based on tribe, wealth and hatred are still fresh in the Ghanaian mind. His henchmen who wore Afro Moses sandals now wear Italian tip pointed shoes and drive around in V 8 engine powered vehicles. and you call this man magnanimous , having sucked Ghana dry and looks like a bloated toad ? A Nyebro is always a Nyebro no matter what . In any case , your people want to secede from Ghana .

When did abduction and clandestinely killing people without trial become legal even if you think somebody is committing crimes? We are human beings who have laws we live by to safeguard society, protect the weak from strong, powerful and influential people. We don't live in the jungle where the law of survival depends on how strong you are.
If Railings is calling for execution of murderers, then he should be on the vanguard because abducting and killing another human being without trial is murder.

If in the High Court of Sarpong, located there in Texas, the murder of YEYEBOY was found to be by Jerry John Rawlings, then JJR would have to be extradited (hoping we have that treaty with the State of Texas).
And JJr will then be duly executed by your definition.
But if that was not done in the High Court presided by Justice Sarpong, here in the Republic of GHANA,how then do we implement JJR's proposal to HAVE MURDERERS EXCEUTED?
By the way, did JJR strangle YEYEBOY?
Or shot him?
OR butchered him?

I know tribalism has impacted the reasoning abilities of some of you Ewes when it comes to Railings but exercising your brains on issues concerning Rawlings will not cause you anything.
Railings has admitted killing Yeyeboy, some Witnesses have come out to say they were sent to carry out this murder, the same modus operandi used in the abduction and killing of the three Akan Judges and the retired military officer but you yahoo's are out here in force defending the indefensible.
Noo, it will not be in the court of Justice Sarong but rather it will be in the court of the state of Trokosiland, with lawyers for both the Prosecution and Defence haven been trained at the University of Trokosiland school of law and tribalism trained to perpetrate tribalism in the interest of NYEBROS.

My fellow, OKATAKYIE SARPONG, I can understand where you're coming from on Rawlings' call for the restoration/reintroduction of the Death Penalty. Of course, it is a tad ironic and hypocritical considering Rawlings' own murderous past in the history of Ghana.
However, even if Rawlings today confesses to his past crimes, you know he's preserved and protected by the Indemnity Clause inserted into Ghana's constitution.
Of course, you may disagree with Rawlings on this issue, but his past shouldn't necessarily put him on the wrong side of the argument. The Death Penalty is one of the issues there'll always be 'for' and 'against'. I wish you had rather focused on the message and on the messenger.

Thanks for you comment but if one has to be convicted for murder before he or she can be called a murderer let alone executed, can you tell me what court convicted YEYEBOY for Rawlings to abduct and kill him and others? Did you read the article? Read what Rawlings said about killing Yeyeboy.
"Rawlings, claimed that his main reason for ordering the execution of Torgbui Akakpovi Ahiaku, popularly called, Yeye Boy of Atidzive, near Abor in the Volta Region, as well as other traditionalists, was to demonstrate to their people that juju does not pay."
NOW TELL ME WHAT COURT CONVICTED YEYEBOY FOR MURDER.
You can't because if any court had convicted Yeyeboy, there would not have been any need to abduct and murder him.
Anyway, I am not a Journalist but if I was, I would not have lost any credibility for calling Rawlings a murderer because he is. He abducted and killed somebody and that makes him a murderer.

Rawlings is the founder of modern Ghana, he actually open wide and broad the eyes of every Ghanaian to wake up from their slumber, ashiantes and Akan speakers only hate him because of not one of their kins men but have forgotten that kumasi and their palace is founded in fetishes and human sacrifice... tell us is the yeye golden stool a gift from God in the sky? Primitive and Idol worshippers.
Sarp, don't you know Rawlings does not count himself amongst us mere mortals and is therefore above the law? Railings by the virtue of the drunk Scottish blood running through his veins think he is better than every Ghanaian ...

You must realize by now that "the myth
surrounding JJ, is TEFLON"!
I have read through the comments of Trokosi Gersis, Kojo T, Dzikor and Princewilly, i'm yet to read from crazy bald head, C.Y. Andy K though - and I came to the conclusion that: either these Nyebros lack comprehension - which ...

Rawlings is not a murderer. As a military personnel I do not like the way he managed the country under his coup d'etat, I don't like the way he managed the country after taking over.
You people say the dumbest things to lo ...

You are not worth anybody's time. Rawlings has admitted ordering the abduction and killing of Yeyeboy so what more evidence do you need to accept that he is a murderer? What court convicted yeyeboy of killing anybody?
With all due respect to "JJ THE MURDERER" What is he saying. Please Almighty Lord don't come on Earth now.
Those who did the murders in the 1980's/1990's should live to see thier doom. Their generations being wiped out. Lik ...

Rawlings killed his superiors to gain political power to enrich his family and friends. Sadly some sycophants cheered him on and innocent citizens lost their lives. Rawlings is a murderer and it is only in Ghana such a scum b ...

Yeye boy killed more people than JJ. He deserved to be killed.

Fellow Ghanaians
Sarpong is a caitiff, an agregious fool who is so foolish that he stands out from the herd. This Homo will fight for a whore but will run away from the 'Cardinal' truth.

See how these incestuous daughter molesters are. Anytime you bring their bastard little god to earth by exposing him as an airhead, these blabbermouth fools go bonkers.
Sarpong, I saw you cheering JJ and saying "Let the Blood Flow". Charlie, I was there. You were wearing that your green OBRONI-WAWU shirt. You were shouting at the top of your voice. You think I dont know you?
Duh!
I thought this diaper wearing octogenarian called GERSIS had gone into coma after spewing garbage on this site several years ago. The mention of his tin god Rawlings has awakened him up. I can imagine the hold this herd menta ...

Unbelievable: Rawlings sees others but NOT himself as a murderer even though he lined up individual SOULS against poles and murdered them in COLD BLOOD. 3 decades later he no longer sees himself as a murderer. Maybe ridding h ...

Fool, there is a law in Ghana for capital punishment and there was law in Ghana for capital punishment during the time of Rawlings. Fool, what right does Rawlings had to abduct and murder somebody?

Why Rawlings and his family are still living and enjoying their stolen wealth,after murdering innocent people is still beating my understanding.
Joe Manu,you're right,apart from Ghana no country in the world would let Rawlings to go Scott-free,and still live on tax payers money.After all the atrocities he and his men committed.
Rawlings & his Wife have proved to be more corrupt than the 3 former Heads of States (and Senior Military Officers), that were publicly executed
at Teshie Military Range. For this reason alone he
should face the same pen ...

Sarpong, same way as Rawlings; if you have good evidence Rawlings is a murder, you can bring out and initiate a legal action against him. Or is it about the INDEMNITY CLAUSE? Well I hope you gave your suggestions to the Const ...

A killer of murderers can never be killed. Imagine your brother travels on Yeye boy's car and is sent to his shrine to be killed. Or your wife is a friend of Yeye boy's wife, she (your wife) visits Yeye boy's wife and you hea ...

Do not worry about these tribalist buffoons
Listen to this brainless smelly illiterate old trokosi idiot. Stinky fool, your little god Rawlings is a murderer and has no moral authority to call for anybody to be executed.
You are still waking free in our streets
without being arrested for all the crimes you committed during your term of office.
You are a man animal,all that you know is killing,animal

If in the High Court of Sarpong, located there in Texas, the murder of YEYEBOY was found to be by Jerry John Rawlings, then JJR would have to be extradited (hoping we have that treaty with the State of Texas). ...

Ask JJ, You don't sound like you are the sharpest knife in the drawer. In any jurisdiction, the murderer is not only the person who actually did the killing. The person who plans the killing without actually doing the killing ...

Ask Yeye Boy about how many people he killed. You should be grateful of the death of Yeye Boy. It seems you were far away from the areas of Yeye Boy if you were born by then.
What court convicted Yeye boy of anything? Are you people just stupid or just plain imbeciles?
If yeyeboy was a criminal, why didn't we arrest and put him on trial instead of abducting and killing him?
Big FOOL and a son of a ritualist. I think Yeye boy made juju for your father so you post this. Which court and Judge could have tried that multiple killer who killed for your father to make money.
....when he botched his 15 May 1979 mutiny against the military junta of his day, even before his court-martial, JJ asked to be executed and his followers spared.An open trial and a revolution later,nobody had obliged.He agai ...

Your question begs the point either you back death sentence or you do not. It is not about whether is guilt of murder or not
Mr Jato! You have said it right, but do u know that you and your wife should be the first to be killed? Pls get yourself ready to be kill.
The evil deeds he committed against fellow Ghanaians will haunt his generation one by one. Rawlings out of frustrations and bitter anger targeted mostly Ashiantis and few Ewes as a compromise. Some of us were stronger than ...

OKATAKYIE SARPONG, thanks for putting things in context. But again, Rawlings is the richest source of irony and hypocrisy.
Justice, more often than not, I have respected your viewpoint but this time you have failed to impress me. Go back and re-read what Rawlings said, and then ask yourself: "HAS JJR EVER BEEN CONVICTED BY A CREDIBLE COURT OF L ...
