Yes, they were both corrupt but Jerry always play the saint. That is just annoying. I guess sometimes we should just leave Jerry alone because we don't know what he has inhaled at a point in time.

AUTHOR : WOMANS WISDOM-------------*******You can say whatever you want about ex president Kuffour but I can tell you with all sincerity that president Kuffour is the best among all the past governments because he made a whole lot of developmental programs that have placed Ghana on the right path to success. He was able to bring in money from the international community to construct important projects that is uncomparable to any done by any past or present government. Focus your mind on the Bui dam, and it is Kuffour. Gaze at the discovery of OIL and it is Kuffour. Look at N 1 and Akwapim mountain Highway and it is Kuffour. The building of all three main sports stadia and it is Kuffour. Kuffour is the originator of Free maternal care, the national health insurance scheme (NHIS), school feeding program for students,metro mass transport, free cocoa spraying for farmers, improved workers salary, easy availability of loans for workers and small businesses, restoring and face lifting of government buildings left dilapidated by evil NDC. Notably, the Castle & Peduase Lodge, rebuilt the Flag staff house. Kuffour ensured freedom of speech, brought the national youth employment scheme,raised ghana from HIPC to lower middle income economy, and many many more. It took him just eight years to do all those. NDC has been on the spot light as a ruling government for a total of about 25 years, there is not even one single developmental project, not even one... come on and how foolish can anyone be to do nothing but insult such a statesman? If this stupid group called Inside Ghana (NDC thieves)has nothing good to say about Kuffour, they must go probe Mahama the chief thief, Atta Mills the hypocrite and JJ Rawlings the murderer and all will not be the same again. Fools.

Does Rawlings want us all to believe that the CIA Director has nothing better doing with is time than to come all the way to Ghana to warn a President about the possibility of a coup due to alleged corruption?

In the grand scheme of things, how strategic is Ghana to the US's interests for them to expend such great political capital? Kufuor should ignore this attention-seeking idiot.

Jerry Rawlings remains an incorrigible fool at his age and his comments should be treated with utter contempt and disdain.

now we see the international community through their credit agencies moody's marking the state of the country's economy as going from bad to worse in reality its just hopeless as long as pepeni and his crooks are there . this time their feeble hogwash bullshit excuses of blaming the npp and the Akans has been exposed .they did not fall for the story of not being able to work because of a petition or that a drill ship saga undermines their ability to perform but looked at the facts and saw the govt is a useless piece of shit and the only reason its not worse is the effort of the industrious enterprising Akan. they are so busy stealing and working to sabotage and undermine the Akan economy due to their intrinsic envy and hate that they have got no time for anything else . even here we see they go into a hysterical frenzy when they hear the patriotic nationalist call of yen Akanfuo as they do not know what it means so think it means what they think when they conspire against the Akans . Akans unlike the scots , yugoslavs , russians etc are not allowed to think of political solutions that dont include them ruling .pepeni is a natural born toxic liar who has surrounded himself with grossly incompetent ministers with suspect criminal motives . not a single minister came to to office with projects, ideas, solutions or even concepts of how to move the economy forward except steal and take bribes for work not done . they count on the blind support of their tribesmen and a system that ensures they will always declare themselves as the winners of any election . we saw the determination of the people to remove them from there and how very naively some went to sleep over night to exercise this power , little did they know that ayigbe jj had already put his key men in place to rig these elections . the only way to secure true democracy is with a war or revolution until then we remain in this desolate wilderness of pepeni /ayigbe evil. long live the republic of Akan

A journalist on a popular radio, this morning made a joke which is of far reaching implications than a joke. Discussing this topic, he joked that if Kuffour monopolised corruption, then corruption remained with a few. That restricted its spread and popularity. But with the current de-monopolization of the evil act, the situation has become wide-spread and endemic.

I laughed over the joke.

However, recent media reports seem to confirm and suggest that Ghanians (individuals and institutions)are competing one another over corruption

But dear reader which is your choice; a few sick people or a nation full of sick person?

With all the protective laws he made t protect himself Rawlings shall not go into the grave peacefully. He who kills by the sword dies by the sword. Kufour did not come into government forcibly,because others have stolen we should also take our turn; we no go sit down make them cheat us,he never stole aircraft chairs into his room before he became the President, he was not someone who could not pay for Yokegari before he voted for the presidency. The 3 high court judges killed and set on fire as a cover up of Rawlings evil deeds are still fresh in our minds so Kufour should not talk much. Rawlings came to popularize corruption even the wive was used to acquire Nsamam cannery.Rawlings should stop making noise for that only reminds us of our pains. He would do ghanaians good by hiding himself from public gatherings.

AUTHOR: EBO QUANSAH---------------Dear reader, forgive me for diverting from the topic I promised yesterday. I have been compelled by Jerry Rawlings’ outburst in Nigeria about corruption, as if he himself is a saint. I am compelled to do this expose on the former junta head for those who do not know his role in promoting corruption as a national concept. Read on!
In June 1979, eight top military officers, including three former heads of state, were lined up and executed at the Teshie Military Firing range in two batches. Gen. Ignatius Kutu Acheampong, Gen. Frederick William Kwasi Akuffo, Gen. Robert Kotei, Lt-Gen. Akwasi Amankwaa Afrifa, Rear Admiral Joy Amedume, Air Vice-Marshall George Yaw Boakye, Emmanuel K. Utuka and Colonel Roger Felli were accused of corrupting the body politic.
In an interview with New Nation, a monthly magazine circulating in Nigeria and now defunct, the Chairman of the Armed Forces Revolutionary Council, which supervised over the most famous case of extra-judicial killings in the history of the political evolution of Ghana, justified the action of his military junta as a necessary action to rid the body politic of corruption.
“They were jumbo-sized armed robbers whose killings left the world smelling nicer,” Flt-Lt. Rawlings was quoted by the magazine as saying in explanation.
Jerry Rawlings said the officers had to be killed, “because Ghana was faced with their type of thievery breed of criminals who were worse than Nigeria’s armed robbers” in the 1970s.
“Now, I’ll tell you what we have here. We have a breed that is, perhaps, worse than your armed robbers,” he told reporters of the New Nation in an exclusive interview. “They are the pen robbers. These species of vermin have for long perpetrated corruption with impunity.
“They have not only bled the nation white, but as a result of their thievery, Ghana has suffered hunger, loss of national spirit, loss of pride and respect in the military uniform. So, as you can see, while Nigerians have perceived their main social problems to be the proliferation of six Naira armed robbers, we, in Ghana, think that our problem is that of people who take widow’s mite from a bankrupt nation.”
In the words of the ex-junta head: “While you (Nigeria) content yourself at the Bar Beach by watching the executions of mal-adjusted labourers, mechanics or clerks, we in Ghana, have killed the jumbo armed robbers, call them generals or brigadiers – whose going to leave the world smelling sweeter.”
One interesting thing about this claim is that Jerry Rawlings and his righteous AFRC members could not account for monies lodged in AFRC Account 48, which was specially created to lodge huge monies paid by businessmen and other persons and institutions found guilty by a so-called people court to have corrupted the system. Monies from seized goods auctioned to the public at so-called control prices were also lodged in the account.
When President Hilla Limann took power after the AFRC had left the scene on September 24, 1979, the new Head of State complained that there was nothing in the coffers, insinuating that the famous Account 48 could not be traced.
When Flt-Lt. Rawlings, who had refused to accept the new government’s offer to go on course abroad, was questioned on the disappearance of the huge lodgings in the account, he replied that he was not an accountant. Incidentally, the fate of PNDC Account 48, established by the second junta led by the same person, has not been accounted for as you read this piece.
One of the most interesting developments in Ghana’s political evolution was the decision to abolish the General Certificate of Examinations -Ordinary and Advanced levels- by the Provisional National Defence Council. The main reason given was that the old educational system had favoured only the children of the elite class.
At a time ordinary folks of the land were enrolling their children in what became known as the Junior and Senior Secondary schools, whose certificates -BECE and SCCE- were not recognised beyond the four corners of the country, Jerry Rawlings enrolled his children at the expensive Ghana International School in Accra to read subjects that qualified them to sit for the GCE Ordinary and the Advanced levels his PNDC administration had prohibited the mass of Ghanaian children from.
I do not believe corruption is only putting state money in one’s pocket. Exploiting state resources for one’s advantage could even be a worse form of corruption. That is why I have an axe to grind with Jerry Rawlings for enrolling all his children abroad to study with the GCE Ordinary and Advanced levels, acquired outside the formal sector in the country.
What I call Jerry’s Stupid Schools has debased education up to the tertiary level, where lottery numbers, other than real academic work, determines qualification at the first degree level.
To add insult to injury, when asked to tell Ghanaians how he was funding the education of all the three children -Ezanator, YaaAsantewaa and Kimathi- in expensive universities in Britain and Ireland, Jerry Rawlings looked at Ghanaians in the face and answered that unknown benefactors were picking up the bills for their fees.
The Almighty is a kind Lord. It emerged that companies the state of Ghana was dealing with and which were milking Ghana dry, were picking up the bills of Jerry Rawlings’ children. And such a person has the audacity to complain about leaders being corrupt.
I dare state that corruption was elevated into an art under Jerry Rawlings. The circumstances under which he transformed himself from a military dictator into a civil constitutional President smells of corruption all the way to the Castle.
After eleven and a half years of the ‘Gospel According to Jerry Rawlings,’ a period he himself identified as the ‘culture of silence’, Jerry Rawlings and those who claim to believe in him used the resources of state to convert his military oligarchy and the entire governance system into a political party. With the Electoral Commission and the entire process under his thumb, Jerry Rawlings exchanged his military garb for a description as Constitutional President of the Republic of Ghana. God Almighty should remain where he is.
The eight year administration he led, as Constitutional President of this Republic, eulogised corruption as a state-sponsored event. State asserts were transferred to cronies under the guise of divestiture. As you read this piece, Nsawam Cannery, one of the flagship projects of the now defunct Ghana Industrial Holding Corporation, belongs to Caridem, a company floated by Mrs. Rawlings’ 31st December Women’s Movement, in a purchasing agreement that parceled the company to Caridem for a pittance.
Under the Government of the National Democratic Congress Mark One, corruption festered on a large scale. It would take volumes to chronicle corruption under the NDC. But four prominent issues stand out. Getting to the end of the first term of office, newspapers that had been freed from the bondage of the culture of silence began chronicling evidence of corrupt deals by leading members of the regime.
In 1996, the Commission for Human Rights and Administrative Justice investigated one matter and established massive corrupt deals against Ibrahim Adam, then Minister of Agriculture, Colonel E.M. Osei Owusu, a former Minister of the Interior, P.V. Obeng, a Presidential Staffer, and Dr. Adjei Marfo, a Chief Executive Officer of a state-run company.
Instead of prosecuting them, the Government of Saint Rawlings rather issued a While Paper exonerating the corrupt elements, and rather indicted the media for highlighting the issue.
In Britain, Mabey and Johnson was prosecuted not too long ago for corruptly influencing Ghanaian politicians between 1994 and 1999 to gain bridge contracts, The news in these contracts is that barely one year after completing two bridges in Ghana, including one over River Oti, the Ghana Government had to contract experts from Britain to repair them as they threatened to cave in.
In 2002, the former Managing Director of Ghana Rubber Estates Limited, Mr. Etienne Arthur Marie Popeler, told an Accra Fast Track High Court that he gave millions of dollars to Mr. Dan Abodakpi, then Deputy Minister of Trade and Industry, Ms. Shirley Ayittey, then Treasurer of the 31st December Women’s Movement, in bribes before his French company, SIPH, could secure GREL.
The case of Ms. Cotton, an unemployed American, secured $20 million of scarce state cash from compromised state officials, ostensibly to grow rice for Ghanaians at Aveyime in the Battor area of the Volta Region. Even when Ghana’s Ambassador to the United States had sent a warning letter about the background of Ms. Cotton, and intimating that she was incapable of undertaking the task, state officials paid the money. As it turned out, the main motivating factor was the cut they all stood to make.
If corruption is endemic in the body politic after the so-called June 4, uprising, the genesis could be traced to Jerry Rawlings who executed eight Ghanaians officials on unproven trivial charges, and out-doored full- blown corruption as a state policy.
In other exposé next week, I intend to draw the link between the free for all looting that assails the body politic in the Mills-Mahama regime, and the adventure of Jerry John Rawlings as Head of State of this Republic. I shall return!

In my POLI 408 Course, titled Ghana's Foreign Policy, I got to know that Kuffour was the best thing that happened to Ghana in terms of foreign policy followed by Acheampong. Jerry de John was at best a corrupt dictator who never had the interest of the nation at heart. If Jerry is bold enough to call names when it comes to corruption, he must as well be bold enough to add his name since it is an established fact that every leader that Ghana has had is one way or the other corrupt. The only reason why i will pick Kuffour any day is that even if corrupt, he was able to implement many developmental projects that can rival any visionary leader's in the world...

don't you guys see what he is trying to do. he is diverting attention from himself. this guy killed his generals because he proclaimed that they were corrupt, he seems to have a problem explaining his revolution at this point in time, as the saying goes you cant sow cassava and reap corn . In the case of kuffour he may be corrupt but he never killed anybody publicly because he said they were corrupt. some of us just want this man to realize that what he did was wrong, THE GOOD LORD SAID VENGANCE IS MINE SO I HAVE NO BUSSINESS IN TRYING TO JUDGE JJ but what he did was wrong and he will definitely suffer the consequence WE SHALL ALL REAP WHAT WE SOW, WE MAY NOT CARE NOW, BUT THAT DAY WILL DEFINITELY COME

when accusations and counter accusations are hurled t each other by our past leaders, it helps to give the ordinary man a glimpse into the goings-in of the Presidency? It is not for the good of the ordinary Ghanaian that many of these former presidents did all they could to ascend the throne. It was an income generating activity for they and their families and acquiantances. what else explains why very old and depreciated men are striving hard to either remain on the throne or to keep on contesting? Yes, pwoer they say corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely. The presidency is the hallmark of absolute power.

A friend recently told me during a visit to London that the reason corruption and money grabbing is not seen among NPP officials is that, they (NPP) are perceived by most people as having been "well established" before entering politics. On the other hand, the NDC folks are known to have very modest backgrounds financially, so whenever both sides display financial affluence it is easy to accuse the NDC officials corruption whereas the NPP people can always fall back on their "well established" argument to deflect accusations of corrupt. I never thought, I could hear this being said "officially". I guess my good old London friend was right.

Many of politicians in the WESTERN WORLD are well established before entering the political scene.
That do not make them corrupt and hide behind their success before their political life.
Your Rawlings' coup was totally to rub corruption out of the scene in Ghana,but it looks like,now his party is strongly propagating/preaching corruption.
Therefore all that Rawlings is doing now,shows clearly,his aimsand aspiration,that led him to kill lots of people,have come up to nothing,and therefore,people would be aiming,maybe on what next to do to him.
His indemnity clause trick doesn't resonate in the minds of the now citizens of Ghana,therefore,stands the chance of being amended.
I guess RAWLING has no peace of mind,because,one day,I believe,he would be caught and the law will dictate,what should be done to him.

I did not say that NDC politicians are angels neither did I say NPP people are evil. I only expressed how some in our society perceive both sides differently when they become corrupt and amass wealth. Believe you me, most of these politicians (and others) do steal from public funds. If by what you are saying, you want to blame NDC for corruption and absolve NPP from it, that is your point of view, but others have a different view. I absolve neither.

We would have seen a more developments in Ghana, if the whole 20 years that Rawlings spent in power was even given to a dog. That bastard spent 2 decades in power but there was absolutely nothing to write home about in his regime. A country like Ghana had only one television station in his regime. People couldn't speak on radios against his his government without having them arrested or being harassed. Kuffour came to power to give Ghanaians life. In Jak's regime people were expressing themselves freely on radio. Banks were given credits to individuals, and there was huge circulation of money in the country for the small businesses. Now you have NDC in power again, and things are really messed up. People are suffering and they seem not care about it. Only people who are in this government are chopping the money with their families. The ordinary NDC supporters are starving too. But Rawlings sees nothing wrong with this government because he is chopping the money too. Where is Rawlings logic?. Your party is in power, and corruption is vividly seen in this government. Instead of him advising the president how to fight against the corruption in this government. Interestingly Rawlings has rather turned around and criticizing someone who has been out of power for several years. It's clear, Rawlings is a JEALOUS man.

Kufuor has been too gentle with Rawlings over the years. Rawlings has been churning out one lie after the other about Kufuor but surprisingly Kufuor has treated him (Rawlings) with kids gloves and that has emboldened this criminal. I think Kufuor should respond in kind and also play it dirty too. It is simply sickening for Rawlings to suggest that Kufuor "monopolised corruption". No Ghanaian in their right mind will ever say that. Kufour has been out of office for 5 years but not a single act of corruption has been levelled against him personally or any of his ministers. So how can Rawlings justify what he is saying here? So many corrupt deals characterised Rawlings regime for which some of the ministers who served under him were fairly trialled and jailed. Rawlings educated his children abroad by stealing from state coffers and yet he has the audacity to point accusing finger at an innocent man. Rawlings is sick!.

CIA has got the time with stupid things about any countries economy. They are a security for the interest of USA not any other country.
Those who spoke to Rawlings after June 4 to being ghana back to democracy were not the CIA as he was thinking, they were members of USA foreign officers in ghana at that time. Their office was in Osu close to where he Rawlings and Konadu watched dirty dancing with me and other people after he Rawlings and Konadu smoked Wee at the back of US ambassy fence 1975. Train (kitiki) disco and a cinema where the filling station is now was where were watch the film.
Just because of not going to south africa he wants to try his luck on the govt to see whether he can bring it down. We he trying with the deposted military advicer to John Mahama to have a coup in ghana.

"Mr Ageykum said Mr Kufuor, unlike Mr Rawlings, was a well-established person before coming into power"

That is the nonsense that Kuffour's people peddled before he came to power and ever since. Well established? He was corrupt and a thief who travelled with an entourage that did go through any body scanners. He was an honest person he would tell us where the $3m dollars from the sale of the drill ship is. He had the affront to tell us that corruption is as old as Adam and Eve.

IT'S VERY SAD TO SEE THE YOUTH OF TODAY APPLAUDING JOHN RAWLINGS IN EVER SPHERE OF GHANA AS BEING A MAN INTEGRITY-'RAWLINGS FACTOR'-EMPHASIZE MINE.
RAWLINGS HAD SURPRISED THE WHOLE WIDE WORLD.HE IS NOW SAYING PRESIDENT KUFFOUR CAGED GHANIANS DURING HIS RULE AND THAT HE WAS AUTOCRATIC?WHAT A SHOCK NEWS.THROUGHOUT THE ELEVEN(11)YEARS OF RAWLINGS GOVERNANCE,NOBODY IN GHANA HAD FRESH AIR TO BREATH IN.EVERYBODY WAS AFRAID OF HIS MILITARY DICTATORSHIP.EITHER YOU KEEP QUITE OR YOU FACE MILITARY HUMILIATION-TORTURE.THE MANY CURFEWS THAT WE EXPERIENCED,UNLAWFUL DETENTION,CONFISCATION OF PEOPLE'S ASSETS WITHOUT TRIAL,ETC.
HE NOW TURNS ROUND TO SAY HIS PREDECESSOR WAS AN AUTOCRATIC.WHAT A SHOCK NEWS.
ONE THING THAT I'VE DEDUCED FROM RAWLINGS IS THE FACT HE ALWATS WANT PERSONAL ATTENTION FROM THE PUBLIC,ESPECIALLY WHEN HIS NAME ISN'T MENTIONED FOR QUITE SOME TIME.THIS NORMALLY GIVE HIM THE CHANCE AND THE OPPORTUNITY TO CASTIGATE HIS INNUENDOS ON THE PEOPLE HE THINKS ARE HIS ENEMIES,IE-FORMER PRESIDENT J.A.KUFFOUR.
RAWLINGS DOESN'T COME ANYWHERE NEAR KUFFOUR WHEN IT COME TO:AGE,KNOWLEDGE,EDUCATION,FAME,BOTH INTERNATIONALLY AND LOCALLY.RAWLINGS HAD ALL HIS EXISTENCE IN HIS PLANET AS A LIAR,OPPORTUNIST,SYCOPHANT AND A VILLAIN.
I CAN SAY WITH AUTHORITY AND ALSO BERT WITH MY LAST GHC1.00 THAT ALL OUR ECONOMIC WOES SHOULD BE ATTRIBUTED ON HIM(RAWLINGS).
IS HE NOT THE ONE WHO CAME AS 'SAVIOUR'OF GHANA AND LATER ON ENRICHED HIMSELF BY CONFISCATING OUR MONEY THROUGH RE-DENOMINATION WHICH ENDED UP IN HIS POCKET,BECAUSE HE FAILED TO GIVE BACK OUR MONEY.
HE LIED TO GHANAIANS THAT ALL HIS CHILDREN SCHOOL EDUCATION ABROAD WERE WERE FINANCED BY HIS FRIENDS,ESPECIALLY ONE DR.BOADU IN U.S.A.
ISN;T THIS SAME MAN WHO SOLD GOVERNMENT PROPERTIES TO HIS WIFE,KONADU AGYEMAN RAWLINGS,HIS FRIENDS AND SYMPATHIZERS LIKE HUDU YAHAYA,E.T.MENSAH,OBED ASAMOAH ETC.
HE SHOULD LET SLEEPING DOGS LIE AND SLEEP QUIETLY.
HE HE WANTS TO HEAR MORE OF HIS SYCOPHANCY AND HYPOCRISY, HE WILL DEFINITELY RECEIVE MORE AND MORE.

AUTHOR: EBO QUANSAH---------------Dear reader, forgive me for diverting from the topic I promised yesterday. I have been compelled by Jerry Rawlings’ outburst in Nigeria about corruption, as if he himself is a saint. I am compelled to do this expose on the former junta head for those who do not know his role in promoting corruption as a national concept. Read on!
In June 1979, eight top military officers, including three former heads of state, were lined up and executed at the Teshie Military Firing range in two batches. Gen. Ignatius Kutu Acheampong, Gen. Frederick William Kwasi Akuffo, Gen. Robert Kotei, Lt-Gen. Akwasi Amankwaa Afrifa, Rear Admiral Joy Amedume, Air Vice-Marshall George Yaw Boakye, Emmanuel K. Utuka and Colonel Roger Felli were accused of corrupting the body politic.
In an interview with New Nation, a monthly magazine circulating in Nigeria and now defunct, the Chairman of the Armed Forces Revolutionary Council, which supervised over the most famous case of extra-judicial killings in the history of the political evolution of Ghana, justified the action of his military junta as a necessary action to rid the body politic of corruption.
“They were jumbo-sized armed robbers whose killings left the world smelling nicer,” Flt-Lt. Rawlings was quoted by the magazine as saying in explanation.
Jerry Rawlings said the officers had to be killed, “because Ghana was faced with their type of thievery breed of criminals who were worse than Nigeria’s armed robbers” in the 1970s.
“Now, I’ll tell you what we have here. We have a breed that is, perhaps, worse than your armed robbers,” he told reporters of the New Nation in an exclusive interview. “They are the pen robbers. These species of vermin have for long perpetrated corruption with impunity.
“They have not only bled the nation white, but as a result of their thievery, Ghana has suffered hunger, loss of national spirit, loss of pride and respect in the military uniform. So, as you can see, while Nigerians have perceived their main social problems to be the proliferation of six Naira armed robbers, we, in Ghana, think that our problem is that of people who take widow’s mite from a bankrupt nation.”
In the words of the ex-junta head: “While you (Nigeria) content yourself at the Bar Beach by watching the executions of mal-adjusted labourers, mechanics or clerks, we in Ghana, have killed the jumbo armed robbers, call them generals or brigadiers – whose going to leave the world smelling sweeter.”
One interesting thing about this claim is that Jerry Rawlings and his righteous AFRC members could not account for monies lodged in AFRC Account 48, which was specially created to lodge huge monies paid by businessmen and other persons and institutions found guilty by a so-called people court to have corrupted the system. Monies from seized goods auctioned to the public at so-called control prices were also lodged in the account.
When President Hilla Limann took power after the AFRC had left the scene on September 24, 1979, the new Head of State complained that there was nothing in the coffers, insinuating that the famous Account 48 could not be traced.
When Flt-Lt. Rawlings, who had refused to accept the new government’s offer to go on course abroad, was questioned on the disappearance of the huge lodgings in the account, he replied that he was not an accountant. Incidentally, the fate of PNDC Account 48, established by the second junta led by the same person, has not been accounted for as you read this piece.
One of the most interesting developments in Ghana’s political evolution was the decision to abolish the General Certificate of Examinations -Ordinary and Advanced levels- by the Provisional National Defence Council. The main reason given was that the old educational system had favoured only the children of the elite class.
At a time ordinary folks of the land were enrolling their children in what became known as the Junior and Senior Secondary schools, whose certificates -BECE and SCCE- were not recognised beyond the four corners of the country, Jerry Rawlings enrolled his children at the expensive Ghana International School in Accra to read subjects that qualified them to sit for the GCE Ordinary and the Advanced levels his PNDC administration had prohibited the mass of Ghanaian children from.
I do not believe corruption is only putting state money in one’s pocket. Exploiting state resources for one’s advantage could even be a worse form of corruption. That is why I have an axe to grind with Jerry Rawlings for enrolling all his children abroad to study with the GCE Ordinary and Advanced levels, acquired outside the formal sector in the country.
What I call Jerry’s Stupid Schools has debased education up to the tertiary level, where lottery numbers, other than real academic work, determines qualification at the first degree level.
To add insult to injury, when asked to tell Ghanaians how he was funding the education of all the three children -Ezanator, YaaAsantewaa and Kimathi- in expensive universities in Britain and Ireland, Jerry Rawlings looked at Ghanaians in the face and answered that unknown benefactors were picking up the bills for their fees.
The Almighty is a kind Lord. It emerged that companies the state of Ghana was dealing with and which were milking Ghana dry, were picking up the bills of Jerry Rawlings’ children. And such a person has the audacity to complain about leaders being corrupt.
I dare state that corruption was elevated into an art under Jerry Rawlings. The circumstances under which he transformed himself from a military dictator into a civil constitutional President smells of corruption all the way to the Castle.
After eleven and a half years of the ‘Gospel According to Jerry Rawlings,’ a period he himself identified as the ‘culture of silence’, Jerry Rawlings and those who claim to believe in him used the resources of state to convert his military oligarchy and the entire governance system into a political party. With the Electoral Commission and the entire process under his thumb, Jerry Rawlings exchanged his military garb for a description as Constitutional President of the Republic of Ghana. God Almighty should remain where he is.
The eight year administration he led, as Constitutional President of this Republic, eulogised corruption as a state-sponsored event. State asserts were transferred to cronies under the guise of divestiture. As you read this piece, Nsawam Cannery, one of the flagship projects of the now defunct Ghana Industrial Holding Corporation, belongs to Caridem, a company floated by Mrs. Rawlings’ 31st December Women’s Movement, in a purchasing agreement that parceled the company to Caridem for a pittance.
Under the Government of the National Democratic Congress Mark One, corruption festered on a large scale. It would take volumes to chronicle corruption under the NDC. But four prominent issues stand out. Getting to the end of the first term of office, newspapers that had been freed from the bondage of the culture of silence began chronicling evidence of corrupt deals by leading members of the regime.
In 1996, the Commission for Human Rights and Administrative Justice investigated one matter and established massive corrupt deals against Ibrahim Adam, then Minister of Agriculture, Colonel E.M. Osei Owusu, a former Minister of the Interior, P.V. Obeng, a Presidential Staffer, and Dr. Adjei Marfo, a Chief Executive Officer of a state-run company.
Instead of prosecuting them, the Government of Saint Rawlings rather issued a While Paper exonerating the corrupt elements, and rather indicted the media for highlighting the issue.
In Britain, Mabey and Johnson was prosecuted not too long ago for corruptly influencing Ghanaian politicians between 1994 and 1999 to gain bridge contracts, The news in these contracts is that barely one year after completing two bridges in Ghana, including one over River Oti, the Ghana Government had to contract experts from Britain to repair them as they threatened to cave in.
In 2002, the former Managing Director of Ghana Rubber Estates Limited, Mr. Etienne Arthur Marie Popeler, told an Accra Fast Track High Court that he gave millions of dollars to Mr. Dan Abodakpi, then Deputy Minister of Trade and Industry, Ms. Shirley Ayittey, then Treasurer of the 31st December Women’s Movement, in bribes before his French company, SIPH, could secure GREL.
The case of Ms. Cotton, an unemployed American, secured $20 million of scarce state cash from compromised state officials, ostensibly to grow rice for Ghanaians at Aveyime in the Battor area of the Volta Region. Even when Ghana’s Ambassador to the United States had sent a warning letter about the background of Ms. Cotton, and intimating that she was incapable of undertaking the task, state officials paid the money. As it turned out, the main motivating factor was the cut they all stood to make.
If corruption is endemic in the body politic after the so-called June 4, uprising, the genesis could be traced to Jerry Rawlings who executed eight Ghanaians officials on unproven trivial charges, and out-doored full- blown corruption as a state policy.
In other exposé next week, I intend to draw the link between the free for all looting that assails the body politic in the Mills-Mahama regime, and the adventure of Jerry John Rawlings as Head of State of this Republic. I shall return!

That is JJ everybody now know him quiete well that he will do or say anything to again popularity at the peril of others just to prove to the whole world that he is clean and a Junior Jesus.The guy has nothing to offer Ghana than to go around to talk trash.He did that with Mills,Liman,Obed Asamoah etc.but did not fly so now he is trying and looking form new tricks to see if the new ones will fly.This was a guy who told the world he was going to provide videos of Yaa Naa touring especially north and volta where he knows he is their God but could not travel to the other regions because he was going to be booed.This was again a man who told Mills his wife will not contest not knowing he was doing his behind the doors tricks only to contest at the last minute thinking the executives in NDC are shallow minded and fools so drove him away with their 3%.He tricked Liman he was not planning a coup after Liman was told to becareful about JJ and lo and behold he made Liman to one day wake up laughing at the wrong side.He was planning some tricks with Mahama but now he can see that Mahama is not somebody you play with because if he dare any wrong moves in Ghana he will be very sorry he did.So now Mahama is giving free respect just as a former President but if he dare try to abuse it he will be sorry.He better continue to enjoy all the booties he has.He needs to respect himself and learn from Clinton,Bush,Kuffuor and other x-presidents.He should always remember he is just a high school guy who came to the limelight via the gun and was able to stay on because Ghanaains were not educated much as today.The 1979 Ghana is not the Ghana we have today when he could go around slapping people today he should try to slap Mahama and see what happens to him.He came very very poor but went very very rich so who is he fooling he thinks Ghanaians can be fooled forever.

We all know Rawlings is crazy by birth and is jealous of Kuffour. So lets not pay attention to him.

I used to give Rawlings a lot of respect until he started making silly and foolish statements about ex-Prez. Kuffour during and after his presidency. Rawlings is a liar a con man and corrupt, even more than those that he's been going about trying to destroy. It's a sad thing but I think it is time for a courageous citizen to take him on and expose all his dirty things he did during his 19 plus or so many years that he imposed himself on Ghana with his gang spreading ethnic and tribal divisions.

Frank Agyekum STOP the falsehood. Who tell you Kuffour was well established before coming into power? Both Kuffour and Rawlings are thieves and crooks and they should be in jail.

Mr . Agyekum, please come again. If you are defending your boss to get your daily bread, please do so without lying to Ghanaians. Who says former President Kufuor was a well established peron before coming to power. Even his house where he lived before being elected as President was not completed. We knew Kufour before he became Presudent. Maybe you got close to him after he has used state money to put his house in shape and told Ghanaians that a farmer was the one who paid the bills. When he visited the the sitting Presudent(Rawlings) at the castle before taking office, his old Mercedes Benz car broke down and Rawlings had to give him a car for him to be driven home. Well established indeed. Please give us a break because the whole world knew how corrupt President Kufour was when he was in charge of the affairs of state and no amount of white-washing will estricate him from this. All the ill-gotten wealth he is currently sitting on will not save his life. One day he will give account when he faces his maker. Criminals!!!

As a matured person you ignore such comments. Why do African leaders always have little minds. Please for the future generation sake let your mind dwell on important things. What do you think the Americans think of African leaders - Shameful be matured. Long Live Ghana
