I am not sure what JJ's beef is with this Ukraine issue. We have our own problems in Ghana and even in Africa. What was he able to do about the Somalia problems when he was given the responsibility? He loves to visit and hang out in the West and speak in his undefined "awam" accent trying to be an American but yet he hates the West. What an idiot!

Unfortunately some of the people who comment on this platform needs to be schooled. Your hate for President Rawlings will definitely consume you one of these days.
The speech given by President Rawlings on this occasion was superb. The clarity of thought and the wisdom in what he was drawing the attention of our parliamentarians in the Pan-African parliament, Presidents and other dignitaries present to was fantastic. As a continent we have suffered enough and it is about time that we take the bull by the horn and start charting a different course for our continent. The examples of Syria, Ukraine, Libya, Ivory Coast and Iraq were used to illustrate the need for Africa to wake up from its long slumber and unite for the benefit of the continent. President Rawlings hit the nail right on the head. We need bold leaders on the continent like him to act now. Trying to criticize and insult him is a excercise in futility. I am very proud of this true son of Africa and I salute him for always saying the truth. God bless Africa and may its leaders begin to put issues related to the continent on the front burner of their agenda. Like Rawlings stated we have the numbers and the resources to make our voice heard. We should stop playing second fiddle to the western powers and take our rightful place in the global arena. Amandla !!!!!

Rawlings has hit the right note in the speech he made. This old style American politic would not fool anyone this time around. After the cold war, Russia was the one to let go of her communist empire-the wassau pact. America has refused to let the Nato pact go. Instead, is closing in on the formal Russian nations. No government would continue to seat and allow this to be happening. We need world peace and the whole world must speak up against this old style of doing things. So, Rawlings talk is in the right order. We need courageos leader to speak up on issues so that peace prevails.

When shall Africa have leaders like this man again? These are sort of visionary leaders Africa need. Unfortunately, they are no more there. Those around are only fighting for their stomach in a form of corruption, stealing, looting and killings. Since this man left power, Ghana continue to be sinking like astroid coming down to crash the earth. Before The great Rawlings leave power, Ghana do not have millioneers. But today soon after he left we have billioneers politicians who stole from nation coffers and public money. Why? Ghana used to have foreign reserve account, soon Rawlings left, we went into heavy debt. They came and deceive Ghanaians that we are going to HIPIC while stealing from the government. This is the time Ghana in particular need a strong revolution to kill all corruptor and decapitate them for the rest of their life.

Listen to the hypocrite Rawlings. Not every Ghanaian is an idiot to be fooled. This is the guy who collaborated with the IMF/WB to destroy Ghana's industrial base, did all their bidding in the nineties to destroy the greatest number of the enterprises and assets Nkrumah left us! This is the same Rawlings who received bribes from the British company, M & J, in exchange for their building bad bridges! And suddenly today he Rawlings is a patriot and nationalist? This is the guy who worships and honours Kotoka whose coup was sponsored by you-know-who, and today he, Rawlings, gets up to denounce foreign-sponsored coups?
Yes, what is good for the goose is good for the gander. So we'll say execution by firing squad was good for the traitor, Afrifa, and execution by firing squad should be good equally good for the traitor, Rawlings!

Kwame Nkrumah is known to have declared "Seek ye first the political kingdom and all other things will be added". I do not often disagree with Kwame Nkrumah insights, but I disagree with this aforesaid declaration. This speech by Jerry Rawlings seem to fall in the same line of thinking. Whether the essence of the speech is what Jerry actually believes or whether his speech writers are the ones who fed his this way of thinking, the fact is economic power trumps political power. The trust is that one needs to develop economic, political and military power concurrently, but economic power must be at the very top. It does not matter how many "excellencies" there are in Africa, they are all comedians. Ghana, and Africa has got to learn that taking care of ourselves economically is the first thing we need to do in order for other people to take us seriously. Lee Kwan Yee of Singapore demonstrated this admirably. Nobody paid any attention to Singapore as a serious player on the world stage until it burst on the world economic scene. Now, everybody listen to Singapore. I still remember when it was reported in the press that Jerry Rawlings was campaigning in Ghana for the people of Ghana not to but soap manufactured in Ghana by Appiah Menkah. I grant you Jerry has admitted himself that he does not understand economics. Now he owns a chocolate factory and the Nsawan Cannery and I am sure he would not appreciate it all if the sitting head of state does the same thing to him. Now he makes such a speech. I wonder if he has grown up enough to understand that short sighted political vindictiveness of the kind he himself exhibited is part of the problem. Making generaised statements for Africa to be respected has to begin with Africans helping each other get on their feet - a Jerry Rawlings helping Appiah Menkah to grow his business instead of sabotaging it. We have to minimize the "skin-pain" attitude that we all have. Our strength will come not from politicians but from the general population unleashed to develop at its own pace.

THE FACT THAT WHILE THE WHOLE OF AFRICA WAS BURNING, AND THE CULTURE OF COUP HAD ENGULFED GHANA WHICH SHOULD BE PLAYING A LEADERSHIP ROLE IN AFRICA THEN, IF NOT FOR YOUR COUP , NO ONE COULD HAVE SAVED GHANA AND AFRICA OF THIS DESTRUCTIVE TREND, IF EVEN THEY DO NOT WANT TO GIVE YOU THE HONOR, THE EVENT THAT FOLLOWED AND THE STATE OF GHANA AND AFRICA TODAY CAN TESTIFY THAT , BUT FOR YOU INTERVENTION AFRICA WILL STILL BE IN THE TROUBLE OF INSTABILITY ALL AROUND. IT IS THEN RIGHT TO GIVE YOU THE ACCOLADE OF THE SECOND MESSIAH FOR AFRICA. LOOK AT THE WAY THE WHOLE CONTINENT OF AFRICA WAS HELPLESS AS THE WEST WENT FOR GADAFI AND MURDERED HIM LIKE A CHICKEN, THE WORST THING ABOUT THIS IS THAT NO AFRICAN LEADER FELT ANY SENSE OF INDIGNATION ABOUT THIS SAD INCIDENT. BUT THEY ARE CRYING IN THE WEST ABOUT RUSSIA AND UKRAINE.WHAT HYPOCRISY!! WE ALL HAVE TO TALK TO THE FRANCO PHONE AS THEIR NATIONAL STATUS WILL NEVER ALLOW AFRICA TO BE UNITED AND FREE, THE REST OF AFRICA HAS TO TALK TO THE FRENCH SPEAKING AFRICAN LEADERS , THEY ARE ALLOWING THE ENSLAVEMENT OF AFRICA BIG TIME!!

Rawlings indemnified the suspension and abrogation of Pan Africanism in Ghana's constitution by indemnifying the NLC 'Proclamation for the constitution of a National Liberation Council for the Administration of Ghana and for other Matters connected Therewith' which suspended the 1960 constitution. He also indemnified the NLCD 380 Constituent Assembly Ammendment decree which abrogated the 1960 Constitution. The 1960 Constitution provided for the surrender of sovereignty to an African Union Government. Rawlings decreed, with PNDC 282 and PNDC 253, and appointed people to indemnify the 1960 Constitution and to make Pan African constitutionally illegal in the 1992 Constitution, which he signed as Chairman of the Provisional National Defense Council. Rawlings is anti-Pan Africanism. His party recognized the National Transitional Council as the government of Libya while Qathafi and the Jamahiriya was still in the war against NATO and their CIA trained Al Qaeda terrorist mercenaries. He is talking about Libya and Ivory Coast but his party, the National Democratic Congress betrayed both Bagbo and Qathafi for the same US imperialism that he is criticizing in South Africa. He even marched at the judas of Pan Africanism, KOTOKA'S village on 17 April 2007 to honor him.

I am tempted to call you a bigger fool but it will defeat the purpose of what I want to share with you.
No reasonable person is criticizing what the ex prez is saying,the problem is he had knowledge of the west being scam ages ago when he was in power for close to 19 years.The question is,what did he do about it then?A time when he had more executive powers to initiate this much welcomed call.
We currently have a prez who talks a lot and does almost nothing so people are getting fed up with hearing promises or dreams that they know won't materialize if any from past promises are to go by.
Please learn to analyze situations from both arguments in any debate before you judge.
At the end of the day what do we benefit from denigrating each other?

Brilliant discourse, your arse! Only an idiot, a simpleton like you is fooled by sweet words uttered by a man who collaborated with those he now condemns to ruin his own country. Only a true retard like yourself fails to see the walking contradiction that Rawlings is. He has no ethical locus to speak on any issue. His history, past actions rule that out.
The issue of the current geopolitical chess game being played out is one thing. The intelligent observer does not need Rawlings to point out the farce, the contradictions and plain lies, the imperial schemings. Rawlings' record, his past history of collaboration with the same forces he now condemns is what matters to the intelligent observer. We are not fooled by the phony utterings of Rawlings like you the irremediable idiot!

The narcissistic Rawlings has no true self. Abandoned by his Scottish father, he suffered from severe separation anxiety as a young child and as a defense developed a falsely grandiose psychological shell surrounding an essentially empty core. He is desperately focused on preserving his image, because he relies upon external support for a lack of internal structures.
Individuals LIKE RAWLINGS with narcissistic personality disorder generally believe that the world revolves around them. This condition is characterized by a lack of ability to empathize with others(eg. his callous remarks to the BBC after Prez Mills' death) and a desire to keep the focus on themselves at all times(he loves media attention and will do everything to get one, – SUCH AS GATE CRASHING A BIRTHDAY PARTY TO COURT ATTENTION - he does not want to leave the political scene - his appearance at the NDC congress in Kumasi notwithstanding his being sidelined by the Ahwois, Tsikatas, Kofi Awoonor, HIS U-TURN IN SAYING THE NDC WILL WIN 2012 AFTER SAYING THEY WILL LOSE).
Narcissistic Personality Disorder involves arrogant behavior, a lack of empathy for other people, and a need for admiration(he loves the hero worshipping and superstar status)-all of which must be consistently evident at work and in relationships. People who are narcissistic are frequently described as cocky, self-centered, manipulative, and demanding(wanted to dictate to Kuffour, Mills and now Mahama) . Narcissists may concentrate on unlikely personal outcomes (e.g., fame) and may be convinced that they deserve special treatment. Related Personality Disorders: Antisocial, Borderline, Histrionic. Narcissism is a less extreme version of Narcissistic Personality Disorder. Narcissism involves cockiness, manipulativeness, selfishness, power motives(constant coup detats), and vanity-a love of mirrors. Related personality traits include: Psychopathy, Machiavellianism.
Narcissists tend to have high self-esteem. However, narcissism is not the same thing as self-esteem; people who have high self-esteem are often humble, whereas narcissists rarely are. It was once thought that narcissists have high self-esteem on the surface, but deep down they are insecure. However, the latest evidence indicates that narcissists are actually secure or grandiose at both levels. Onlookers may infer that insecurity is there because narcissists tend to be defensive when their self-esteem is threatened (e.g., being ridiculed); narcissists can be aggressive(beating Arkaah and slapping his ministers). The sometimes dangerous lifestyle may more generally reflect sensation-seeking or impulsivity (e.g., risky sex, bold financial decisions, DRUG ABUSE, COUP DETATS, SUPPORTING DIFFERENT POLITICAL PARTIES).

Motherfucker, Trokosi goon, Son of a bitch! Always shouting, shouting, shouting, in front of a gathering of morons!!! Only fools will grant you such a forum, where you always go barking like an old, sick, mad dog. Your rightful place is the Ankaful Psychiatric Hospital, where inmates can grant you better audience. Blame yourself for Africa's woes, you coward, charlatan and hypocrite. It took Martin Luther Jnr many years of excruciating experience: hard work, forbearance, sleepless nights, etc to realize his dreams, gain freedom for the Black people of America. You JJ had a bloody fucking 20 or so year reign. What was your own personal contributions towards merging Africa's power into one strong voice? You rather visited mayhem, terrorism, anarchy, etc on the good people of Ghana. You ordered junior officers to strip women naked in public and given strokes of the cain. And their inner legs were forced open for public viewing. Army Generals were killed, in the name of stupid, "stinking" revolution. Three prominent, innocent High Court Judges, including a pregnant mother, were all murdered in cold blood under your develish AFRC/PNDC regime. Fearing the repercussions of your evil deeds, you saw it prudent to quickly switch on to democratic governance. Even with that, you and your wife's hands are soiled with high level corruption, thievery, etc. Yet, you have the guts to preach corruption, probity and accountability. You have the effrontery to blame and insult everybody, from Mr Nobody, to NDC Old, Evil Dwarfs with sharp teeth, to Prof Mills, then to Kufuor, whom you bitterly hate for no reason. You said he monoplized corruption? God have mercy on you, Mr Saint JJ. How has your equally greedy wife, Konadu accounted for the moneys realized after she sold Nsawam Cannery? What about other State Corporations that you JJ personally sold? Nkrumah had dreams of uniting Africa, yes. All presidents, except Mahama, did better than you, judging from the length of time you had altogether? As for Mahama, he is a total failure, the least said about him, the better. Until Nkrumah's overthrow, it's on record, that he fought so tirelessly, so aggressively towards achieving his number goal, a United States of Africa status. You've already wasted all your years, you old bastard, so don't waste our ears. If you JJ feel or think that you have something better to offer, go to your "countrymen", Trokosi partners, in the Volta Region. Charity, they say, begins at home. Haven't you realized the poverty-struck nature of your region? Go and turn it into a paradise, a tribal paradise for Ewes. That feat should earn you the "international" accolades you want. For now, Mahama can't do anything there, and the people are said to be threatening "to show NDC where power lies" come 2016. Ghana is not all about Volta Region, get it tribal bigots.

President Rawlings is the only current Ghanaian leader who sounds like a President, the others sound like leaders of internal affairs, who are managing on behalf of imperialism.
Ghanaian/African politicians are mute on foreign affairs issues, they beg so much that they can't open their mouths for fear of losing their opportunity to beg.
Love him or hate him, President Rawlings is definitely the most relevant voice in Ghanaian politics today, I would like to make it absolutely clear that I am no fan of President Rawlings, however, facts being what they are, compared to President Mahama, President kufuor and Nana Akufu Adu, President Rawlings is the only unmuzzled Ghanian politician, let the truth be told.
Ghanaian politicians seem to be dead in the water, they do an excellent job of shadow boxing, insulting each other while failing to solve the country's economic problems, and their blind followers continue to applaud them.
Ghana/Africa needs a new kind of politician, politicians who think as people of action, and who act as people of thought.

This is strange. Rawlings forgot to insult Kufuor. The more he insults the more people sympathise with Kufuor because Kufuor never insults back. JJ, get a degree now that you have time to learn.

Anyone is entitled to o comment on the West- Russia power play. Rawlings is absolutely right when he points out the hideous hypocrisy of so-called Western democracies. According to the West it is OK to invade Libya , Afghanistan and Iraq, thereby causing the death of over a million people. But it is NOT OK for Russia, feeling threatened by growing encirclement by an aggressive NATO to act to protect its exposed flank. Today the USA and its allies find themselves in an extremely perplexing situation. There is a saying that when the bully on the block pushing little kids about comes across the big boy with his hands in his pocket then the bully should be afraid.The Americans must wonder how they got themselves into such a fix. HAVING BEEN USED TO PUSHING WEAKER COUNTRIES ABOUT AND INVADING AT WILL COUNTRIES WITH PUNY MILITARIES US POLICY MAKERS HAVE OW BEEN BROUGHT TO A SHUDDERING HALT BY A CLUB WIELDING PUTIN.It is all very well for the Americans to send out a dozen or so c aircraft carriers criss-crossing the oceans and threatening and bullying poorer nations worldwide. However these aircraft carriers are no good when confronted by a MILITARY SUPERPOWER such as Russia. Our american friends and their sycophantic allies will do well to remember that Napoleon bonaparte and then a century later Nazi Germany discovered how foolhardy it was to invade Russia. Putin has exposed the impotence and dire limits of American power to the whole world. The sneers and mocking tones coming from various Russian leaders and politicians directed towards the USA has not gone unnoticed by the world.Now we know that the bully on the block has now met his match.

Efo Flt. Lt. John Jerry Rawlings these are the sentiments and the hypocrisy of the west we have been writing about. We at times ask ourselves are western leaders from homes or they are on drugs whenever they take decisions. They act like Gods and it is only Gods who do not have feelings and are unaware of how their actions affect others. For the first time in my life I am on the same wavelength with Rawlings. I have a daughter in Russia and a granddaughter in Poland with my daughter-in-law. I also have friends in all Eastern European countries and I am most disturbed when the west handle the people of Eastern Europe as just things.

My comments from Panel Discussion United Nations February 8, 2014.
Greetings to the most distinguished panel:
I am honored to have been in attendance.
The world is a better place to have had President Nelson Mandala, a wonderful humanitarian, whom I will always think of as a "Freedom Fighter" for which he spent 27 years wrongfully, in prison for; because some powers-that-be thought he had no right to be free during this one way journey. Nelson Mandela is the product of "First Civilization". Africa is NOT a third world country; Africa is the ONLY "First World Continent/Country". Africa is the only continent that is NOT third world.
It is time the world treated Africa as a World Power. Africans must treat African (s) as a first world power and start dealing with the continent as a first world people.
This wonderful forum was hosted by Cheryl Wills Anchor for NY 1; who came to the audience after the panel discussion. Everyone in the audience expressed their feeling which was unanimous when it comes to the victims apologizing to the victimizers; the only people that ever forgive, express tolerance and reconciliation are African People and down trodden European people. None in the audience ever remember any Europeans/colonizer "Forgiving" anyone.
I got there before the session started; I had the honor of meeting and talking to Honorable Mohammed;
a member of the United African Congress, he and I talked about Africans, naming themselves, defining ourselves, as we are the, "First Civilization". When European people/the colonizers talk about ancient times they go back to Greece and Rome. The Greek and The Romans attended schools in Africa to learn from the "The First People", prior to setting up their learning institutions. Greek and Roman history is taught in the most prestige schools; {that were started by en-slavement money. The founders of America were the first Presidents of these prestigious schools}. Most learning institutions would have us believe that Africans evolved from {En} slavement. Not from Kings and Queens the owners of the "first monarchy".
The Europeans did not bring any enslaved Africans to the Americus; all captured/kidnapped/bought Africans were free until they reached the auction blocks on this soil.
Everyone on the panel had spoken very eloquently about forgiving, tolerance and reconciliation, but, referring only to African People being forgiving, being tolerant and conciliatory.
From colonizing, dividing up Africa, assigning African Countries and people to European countries, en-slavement, Jim Crow, and today James Crow Esq. we, the victims, are still expected to forgive. We built the pyramids; lined them up with certain stars, without microscopes!!! We founded the use of microscopes later. (Even though the Geico commercial and the Big Bang Theory’s introduction theme song claims the Pyramids were a mistake and the Pyramids were built by them, respectively). If we demand reorganization that we are the proven, “First People” we could put a stop to such Historical assassinations.
Every country has taken valued, natural resources and people from Africa for centuries and given nothing back; Africa has been used as a refrigerator by the self-appointed richest countries in the, "developed world".
African countries must develop Africa; Africa must bring back their own courts, (The ICC is not qualified to judge Africans). The colonizers must NOT sit in judgment of any African. Africans must establish their own banks, set up rules/laws to keep lawless foreigners out of the goldmines, diamond mines, etc. to pass on to generations in Africa . Every culture looks out for their future generations; African must do the same for African Diasporicly and Indigenous.
My Brother, Honorable Mohammed, we must keep in touch to firm up the plans for our “First Civilization” Conference/Seminar for 2015. Africa is waiting and crying to be saved by Africans on the continent and the Diaspora. Africa is the mother of ALL CREATION, we must do the work the Creator created us to do.
