JJ Rawlings is a laughing stock on the African continent. He is the most corrupt Ghanaian ex-president and no. 1 corrupt African head of state of all times. He covered his corruption with the indemnity clause smuggled into the 1992 constitution. Mahama comes next after Rawlings on the corruption league table.

U think if the NPP had evidence of corruption of their greatest enemy, they wouldnt have hanged him while they were in power for 8yrs? If they took away his privileges just for criticizing their gment, what else couldnt they do have done if they had an aorta of evidence of corruption against him?
Why didnt they add his alleged corrupt activities when they tried him at the National Reconciliation Commission which had the powers of a High Court? Dude, Jerry Rawlings has proven to be incorruptible when he ruled for 20yrs. Those who ruled for JUST 8yrs have corruption printed on their foreheads. Shame unto u.
Just like the NPP and their cohorts accused Afari Gyan, Otumfuor, Atuguba, Mahama and co. of electoral corruption, so will they accuse everybody with no single evidence. SHAMELESS GROUP OF PEOPLE INDEED

Mr Attah-Krufi Hayford, your definitions and how you apply them are very interesting, particularly with regards to military coup d'etat. Does that mean all the military coups in Ghana (1966, 1972, 1979 and 1981) were all acts of corruption or just the one's involving Rawlings?
Whilst I shared most of your analysis on the sale of state enterprises and assets to the rich and powerful in society as corruption, I wonder why you restricted the analysis to only the Rawlings era because it has happened since the 1966 overthrow of Nkrumah and still happening.
I also agree with you that Rawlings can never be as white as he claims to be because he cannot say he is incorruptible when he supervised the sale of state assets (land, properties and enterprises) to his wife, friends and cronies (even if he personally did not buy some.
In the same way, I disagree with those who claim that Nana Akufo-Addo is incorruptible. Yes, he might not have been personally involved in any corruption as it's been claimed but for him to say that, the sale of state lands cheaply to his colleague ministers in the last NPP administration was wrong but did nothing to stop it, in my view does not make him incorruptible. He is more or less corrupted by his silence and by association. The one who is truly incorruptible is the one who does not engage in corruption directly or indirectly as well as fights it when he becomes aware of corruption.
To extend my statement above, if it is true that Gabby and Kweku Baako found evidence of corruption by Rawlings, then, why did the last NPP administration fail to prosecute him? Was the NPP government scared of prosecuting him or what? If you are correct but the NPP government failed to prosecute him for whatever reason/s then by this failure they were also corrupt by their failure and let the nation down. Was it guilty conscience that made them unwilling or incapable of prosecuting Rawlings for the corruption that was unearthed by Gabby and Kweku Baako?
In my view and applying your own definitions and analysis, most, if not all Ghanaian politicians and people in positions of trust are corrupt. This is because politicians go into politics for what they can gain and steal from the state rather than to serve the people. From what I now know about Nkrumah, he is probably the only Ghanaian politician who truly went into politics to serve the people. Perhaps, Busia and Attah Mills as well but they did not last long so I am not too sure. All the current ones, especially, Mahama and Nana Akuafo-Addo and the rest all want to be president, ministers, MPs, party officials, MCEs/DECs, etc because of what they can gain personally and that is corruption by your definition. That also include yourself by being the Chairman of NPP (UK & Ireland). I am sure you benefit personally from your position and will benefit immensely if Nana Akufo-Addo ever wins the presidency. What do you say to my comments?

No matter what they do victory shall be ours for God has most certainly made them blind so they lack any wisdom and see no solutions . These pagan ungodly souls have lied and stolen from us on a daily basis but their days are surely numbered . Somebody quickly remind them i am still waiting in vain to be arrested or see the effects of their juju which they promised because we told our people to prepare for revolution and war . Today its clear the pepeni have armed themselves so we also begin to arm ourselves against these criminals, if you can not buy a licensed gun then make sure you sharpen your cutlasses well and keep them well polished and oiled . pepeni has appointed his incompetent criminal friends , family and tribesmen into various positions of state , little do they know that its not about building empty meaningless careers but they should know its a duty to serve the interests of the people and seek the well-being prosperity of all citizens regardless of stature , religious affiliation , ethnic background , age or gender . They plan and scheme to steal our oil and any wealth we are able to create. they work to systematically destroy even the basic family unit by try to thrush down our throats perverse gay homosexual values as being the ideal .They do not see the beauty of the unity in diversity of the various tribes of Akan rather they encourage and facilitate conflict amongst ourselves but it will not work as our people are now more sophisticated than that as no one is blind to their divide and rule tactics except the few idiots who think they build a political career in the oligarchy which has now crossed over into all parties . Be strong and vigilant oh children of Akan as our day draws nigh . long live the republic of Akan

Useless thing you like you, son of a bitch. Your parents had better not brought you into this world, because you are so useless. Have you asked yourself why JJ has used an imdemnity clause to 'purge' himself of all the crimes he committed against humanity, in the name of revolution? I wish your fucking asshole father was among the Army Generals JJ killed. Or one of the judges he murdered in cold blood. You think he will never pay for all of that? For us, it looks as if nothing will happen to him because it has been such a long time. In the eyes of God, a thousand days is equivalent to one day. For you to think that it's the figment of someone's imagination that JJ did all of that, shows how myopic, stupid, ignorant and evil you are. Even if you know, you will pretend you don't know. That is the nature of NDC, a party founded on corruption, terrorism, vandalism, abuse of fundamental human rights. Women were stripped naked and whipped in public for selling a little above the market price, popularly called "kalabule". In the end, JJ managed to use the tax payers' money to finance his children's education abroad. Kweku Baako will be exonerated one day, it's just a matter of time. Those allegations are not fairy tales; they are true, real and coloured. They happened in Ghana. Some of us who were born in the early 70's witnessed a little of JJ's tyrannical rule. What happened to Nsawem cannery? What facts do people want again? If the word of God is anything to go by, then we shall all see the end of this trokosi bastard, who keeps roaring like a mad dog, pointing accusing fingers at everyone, especially Kufuor, because in his time, Konadu was arraigned before court on this Nsawam Cannery issue. There is a saying that 'Everyday for the thief, one day for the master'. JJ is unrepentant, stiff-necked, arrogant, spiteful, boastful, always defending and justifying his numerous sins. This is what will cause his downfall. Where is Qathafi, Hosni Mubarak, and a host of African leaders who turned themselves into God Almighty? Fool, it's your clueless president, Mahama and his create-share-loot brigade who are a shameless group of people. The economy is sick, nothing seems to be working well. They killed Mills, robbed the elections, conspired with Atuguba to overturn the election petition verdict. The world saw it all and God too. He will strike at His own appointed time. Now they want to eliminate Apraku and say that Akufo Addo has a hand in the crime, because of the mounting tensions between the two, in the wake of a series of derogatory remarks Apraku has made against Nana. All will never wash.

Reading through this article with careful eye and a well focused mind, you just seemed to be heard. For instance, the government that Rawlings overthrew first was itself not constitutional. And what led to the firing of those officers? Was Rawlings not jailed to be fired? Isn't it kill or be killed? Before Rawlings came to the scene, 'kalabule' and all sorts of corruption, per your definition, were abound. Yes, there were some atrocities that were carried out, and many people were shouting 'let the blood flow'. People overdid things before it even came to the notice of the authorities. I was thinking you will be able to mention all the people Rawlings sold the state assets to. And was Asare Otchere-Darko's and Kweku Baako's vow to naked the Rawlingses ended fruitfully? It was fruitless. Where is their report? Let's all try to rewrite the history of Ghana using the right lens. The truth should not be banded with lies.

He said Kufuor of monopolised corruption. Oh! Now I get it. Because NPP, under Kufuor, arraigned Konadu before court, it's obvious that is why JJ hates Kufuor so much. A day is coming when this old bastard and crook will pay dearly for his criminal past.

Mr. Atta-Krufi, you may have impressed yourself and your ignorant followers with your definitions of corruption, especially by crediting Aristotle and Cicero with the origin of the term. What you've succeeded in doing in your so-called article of "litany of Rawlings' corruption" is that for the most part you've made wild and unsubstantiated allegations against the former President; you've not given any concrete evidence to support your charges of corruption against him. Consider, for example, your allegation that "[he] hatched a plan to sell off Ghana's hotels to himself under the pretext that they were not making good profit for the nation." Or, consider the ff. statement of yours: "GHACEM was sold to SCANCEM of Norway for $3 million after he and members of his administration took a bribe of $4million. This was revealed in 2007 in a Norwegian court. A Norwegian minister was being interviewed by two Ghanaian editors, Asare Otchere-Darko and Kweku Baako, during their visit to Norway to investigate matters involving evidence before a Norwegian court that top people under the National Democratic Congress government received bribes of more than $4 million from Scancem with the purpose of consolidating the then Norwegian-owned firm’s hold in the local cement industry."
If you're really serious about proving that J.J. was truly corrupt, how can you base your indictment of him on hearsays and innuendos when some are coming from his arch-enemies like Asare Otchere-Darko and Kweku Baako? Fact is, your so-called charges of corruption against J.J. are motivated purely by your hatred of him and so they can't stand in any competent and unbiased lawcourt.
If you want people to take you and your articles seriously, do your research well and provide concrete evidence that J.J. was truly corrupt. Remember, he was succeeded by Mr. Kufuor and his NPP administration. If he was indeed corrupt as you've alleged, why did Kufuor and his administration not bring charges against and imprison him as he did some of J.J.'s ministers like Messrs. Peprah, Yankey, Abodakpui and Selormey?
the name Rawlings can draw attention to you.
JJ Rawlings is a laughing stock on the African continent. He is the most corrupt Ghanaian ex-president and no. 1 corrupt African head of state of all times. He covered his corruption with the indemnity clause smuggled into th ...

Rubbishy cum Rubbish!
An empty head is not really empty; it is stuffed with rubbish. Hence the difficulty of forcing anything into an empty head.
Mr Krufi, don't forget all the GNTC properties in Greater Accra region Rawlings gave to his wife, Yaa Konadu Agyemang Rawlings including their warehouses and 543 acres of prime land that now has been sold to Trassaco Real Est ...

Mr Attah-Krufi Hayford, your definitions and how you apply them are very interesting, particularly with regards to military coup d'etat. Does that mean all the military coups in Ghana (1966, 1972, 1979 and 1981) were all acts ...

It's just not there. There is no need to try and address something or instigate something that isn't there now. It sounds to me like someone has too much time on their hands.

You have nothing to say! Except name-calling and saying baseless!
You lack brains. What kind of foolish write-up is this? U CAN ACCUSE AND ACCUSE. The issue is providing proof of your baseless allegations. Very stupid piece put together. What the fuck
Atta-Akrufi, dont forget the fact that most of the hbuildings/properties were sold to P V Obeng who has changed all the titles to his sister and mother's names. Most of them were not even paid for.
