Author: NKREKETE Posted: 2012-06-04 12:22:29 Mr. Rawlings knows that he is now history and has lost all relevance to the modern day democratic process. Leave him alone; he will burn himself out pretty soon. Could it be the ghosts of the numerous people he murdered and killed gave him some hallucination? A dying animal always struggles so is Mr. Rawlings.
Waste no time on him.
This is acting

rightly so
Author: Kwesi Posted: 2012-06-04 12:25:58 Mr. Rawlings has hit the nail right in the head. the ordinary Ghanain is now neglected whiles government functionaries are amassing wealth and fattening thenselves like animals for butchers to kill. POTAG is crying for what is rightly due them but not to avail. The ordinary Ghanaian is the street is just hopeless. May God intervene in this mess.

Re: Rawlings grudgingly lights perpetual flame
Author: Nicholas J .Bedzo Posted: 2012-06-04 12:43:32 This demostration shows that it hurt his feelings. As for Mills he can only steals the votes to win as Government in power.
An indirect endorsement of NPP?
Author: Bright Posted: 2012-06-04 12:56:10 Rawlings willingly lighted this same flame throughout the 8years of NPP even in the face more gangantuan corruption, property grabbing, serial killings, Gizel Yazys, Hotel Kuffours, GH@50 monecracy etc. even after the June 4 public holiday was revoked. What he did today is just an indirect way of saying the NPP were not corrupt thats why he willingly lighted the flames and dipped his finger into it throughout the eight years. Why then is he demanding for the same people he endorsed by this flame to be sent to prison because they were corrupt? If they were corrupt why did you light the flames throughout? food for thought.
STOP THE NONSENSE
Author: Frank Mensah, Tikobo No. 2 Posted: 2012-06-04 12:57:53 This lighting of the so-called perpetual flame must stop or be stopped. This is a complete insult to our democracy. It's just a stupid show-off by a man who thinks he has changed the world. He actually should have been sent to the Hague long before Charles Taylor. Murderer.
Why bother go there then?
Author: ZONGO BOY Posted: 2012-06-04 12:58:30 Well said, Kwame Wiredu.
What are the principles, values and ideals of June 4ht that Rawlings talks about? Is it the killings of innocent Ghanians? Is it the hardships his actions brought on Ghanaians? or is it the shameful treatment she put Ghanaian women through? This idiot has lost his mind and he will rot in HELL.
freedom n justice

greedy bastard

JJ shd look inward for peace, joy
Author: Analyst Posted: 2012-06-04 13:05:28 Until Rawlings looks into himself (rather than outside himself) and makes amends to his wicked ways, he will always be a man full of grudge -- a man without inner peace and joy.
Is it not surprising that someone seemingly as successful as a former head of state, anytime he makes a public show, he is always full of anger. Of all the good looks he portrays on the outside, it is clear that he is being tormented inside.
What the wise man says in the Bible at Proverbs 16:25 is relevant here: "There is a way that seems right to a man,But its end is the way of death."
Rawlings will never get this inner peace by trying to run other people's lives for them. Instead, he must examine his selfish ways and repent.

Author: Whatever Posted: 2012-06-04 13:11:46 Is it by force to hold june 4th and perform rituals? I cannot understand Rawlings. If he no longer has the zest to perform june 4th rituals, why did he participate? At 65, why didn't he sit as his corner, read the newspapers and drink some tea? Is someone forcing him?

NO ONE, repeat, no one forces you to use words. If you don't understand an expression don't use it. What is the relevance of "MORAL TURPITUDE" is this phrase?
I still don't know the eligibility for the recruitment of journalists for the various media outfits in Ghana but you are all a disgrace to the pen fraternity in Ghana.
Rawlings has lost the moral turpitude to light a flame!!! How funny, or how stupid, depending on how people appreciate such nonsense!

Corruption or killings= EVIL
Author: Saay Dsane Posted: 2012-06-04 13:44:49 Rawlingses and Kofi Adams should be fed up now with the unnecessary shouting or barking. They behave as if the are the only righteous people in Ghana. Their political end is close.

JUNE 4th Sad day in our History.
Author: Washington Insider Posted: 2012-06-04 13:48:16 Jerry Rawliwngs and his revolutionalist can celebrate that fatal day but I think that those who were murdered in the name of Revolutio souls are hunting Jerry Rawlings. Examine his outburst to any government that came after him as no good but his government. But Jerry Rawlings has forgotten that it his enter by force to Ghana left us as we are today. He sent the Republic back 50 to 100 years. He was in Kuffour's throat for 8 years and 4 years of Mills. Who is he? He should be grateful to the Citizens of the Republic who refused to raise arms to fight him as others in parts of Africa did. Ghanaians kept mute. Ghanaians are smart and god fearing folks else Rawlings wouldn't have a breathing space for all his nonsense. The Souls of the Judges Koranteng, Agyapong and Sarkodee and Major Enninful, Gen. Oddartey Wellington, Afrifa, Acheampong, Fred Akuffo, Bob Kotei, Amedome,Roger Feli, Yaw Boakye,
and Utuka. Let us not forget all those men and women who lost their lives in the name of failed revolution of GREED is hunting Rawlings. The next time, he would his aannual rituals at another location in Volta Region and the next time it will be in Togo. God has put a caurse on you Jerry Rawlings. You are not going to get your day in court. For God will give you a long life for you to be miserable. Continue to complain and your hearth will stop whiles you are laughing. Enjoy all the money you and your wife stole from the people and parading around the globe as if you are a saint. Keep On Jerry your cup will be full sooner or later.

Because of democracy we have accepted your offer by then. Why are you treating him and disgracing the party we cherish so much? He would do your wish/will if only it would favour Ghanaian.Remember we are no more in military rule.I always observe June 4th, but this year I lost interest.
RAWLINGS TELLS THE FIRST TRUTH
Author: BONSO Posted: 2012-06-04 16:04:22 "Mr Rawlings said he had lost the zest and moral turpitude to light the flame as the aloofness of government to the plight of the ordinary Ghanaian had made it a travesty to continue to light the flame.
He told hordes of NDC cadres at the ceremony that the lighting of the perpetual flame had become a meaningless exercise..."

WEEP NOT CHILD
Author: mensah abrampah Posted: 2012-06-04 16:36:06 Whatever you sow is what you reap. Rawlings formed the p/ndc and taught and mentored his followers and devotees. So why is Rawlings weeping? A teacher has not taught his students unless they've learned. If he insists he taught them the ideals of probity, integrity and accountability then why are his former students now turned leaders of government so corrupt and inept? He was either a good teacher or a very bad one. If he was a good teacher then the evidence is what his mentored students have turned out to be. Jj taught so well and his students learned so well he has reproduced himself and his students are doing whatever he taught. He sowed corruption and he's today reaping corruption. On the other hand he was a bad teacher/leader/dictator and like all dictators he believed he would live forever and so failed to teach/mentor his followers so that long after his exit there'd be more Rawlingses to carry on his dream. All dictators are afraid of even their own shadow and they refuse to trust anyone but themselves. What we're witnessing is the sad end of all dictatorships. Look around you and tell me if there's just one dictatorial regime that has lasted forever. Rawlings is just being a hypocrite. He's a failed dictator who could not live what expected others to live, ie, probity, integrity and accountability. To date no one knows how he financed his children's education in the best institutions overseas or how much his total assets are worth. In short Mills and co are doing just what Rawlings mentored them to do. The apple or orange doesn't fall far from the tree that bore it. "WEEP NOT CHILD" . In John Fifi Atta Mills and his lieutenants you've got more than you ever asked for. Rejoice that you've lived long enough to see your works come to fruition. In a little while yet no one from future generation will ever remember that name and if they do it'd have become a hiss word.

Rawlings, mills and NDC has no focus
Author: koo fa Posted: 2012-06-05 00:49:58 how can NDC stay on power. Ghanaian can never be fooled again. Shame to NDC, Rawlings and Mills Admnistration. Ask peace of wisdom from J.A. Kuffour and Nana Akuffo-Addoh. Shame!!!!!!!
