MADELA LOVED HIS ENEMIES AND THEY WORKED TOGETHER THAT MADE HIM DIFFERENT FROM NKRUMAH. MANDELA HAS THOUGHT US, THE BLACK AND WHITE CAN LIVE TOGETHER. NKRUMAH VISION WAS AFRICAN CONTINENT MUST WISE UP AND FREE FROM SLAVELY. EVEN THOUGH HE DIED EARLY BUT HIS VISION MOVED ON TO EVERY BLACK IN DIASPORA. JJ RAWLINGS CAME TO STOP COUP'S. MY PRAYER IS "HOLY SPIRIT" EMPOWER MAHAMA TO BE GREATER THAN KWAME NKRUMAH, MANDELA AND JJ RAWLINGS. FORWARD EVER BACKWARD NEVER.

How many national assets did he and his cronies grab for themselves? How many Businesses belonging to South Africans did Mandela collapse?

Does Mandela QUALIFY? To be a RAWLINGS!?

Something indeed went wrong, it is true tht he staged a coup; and there were excesses, the right thing to say shd be tht ppl were abducted; ppl were shot; yes; but JJ did not as a person abduct anybody. Those who were shot, were supported by some of u Ghanaians by shouting "Let the blood flow" Why are u now blaming him as an individual. Ppl took advantage of the situation and did a lot of bad things, but I don't think u can proof anything in court tht JJ handpicked anybody for abduction, or pointed a gun at anybody's head and shot him or her. Tht's why he came out to apologise for the excesses knowing very tht those things happened if not for the coup.

Mandela has set a new standard for leadership around the world. Good leaders forgive their adversaries. They don't line up all former leaders and kill them. Former leaders have families too !

Among the countless people he killed I am always sad about the innocent High Court Judges particularly the nursing mother. JJ will rot in hell fire just like Kofi Awoonor.

The rest of Ghanaians particularly, the Akans will tell you to rot in HELL. What have you done for Ghanaians? You have brought unprecedented tribal segmentation in Ghana. You have brought unprecedented corruption among government officials.
You killed innocent Akans.

Mandela did not harm even a pet of white South Africans who oppressed him and his fellow blacks. I think, JJ , you are being disillusioned. You think the Akans you and your Ewe gangsters murdered were not human beings. Why don't you try and die today and see whether you will be treated like good man Mandela. The insults and insinuations you will receive, I think, Kofi Awoonor will be better.

JJ Rawlings knows no shame. I think this sort of wickedness is Ewes type. They don't feel remorse for killing fellow innocent human beings. JJ Rawlings, you will be indeed unhappy, sad, lonely and rot real bad before you die. You yourself will see how horrible your last days will be here on earth. Unrepented killer like you want to compare yourself to good man Mandela. Your 'trokosis' will wail, but not the whole Ghana. Apart from trokosis media, no media in the world will mention your sorrowful death that will come upon you.

If you want a decent burial in Ghana as a whole, then get right with the Akans and other ethnics you hurt during your armed robbery revolution.

The heading of your article, 'JJ Rawlings: In Ghana I will be remembered as mandela', is quite misleading. Your article has nothing whatsoever to do with what JJ purpotedly said about asserting that he would be remembered as Mandela. All you seem to be interested in is to draw attention to JJ, especially from your point of view of how he killed all his enemies. Apparently, you seem to be motivated more by your hatred for him. After all, is it not awkward and unfair that you should completely accept as gospel truth a hearsay from a friend of yours who stated that he heard JJ say in the 1990s that he would be remembered as Mandela?

You have even revealed your motivation: soleley to draw attention to your article. How pathetic! If you do not have any way of confirming or denying the statement attributed to JJ, then why use it at all, especially as your heading?

If you don't want insulted, then you must be careful about how you reason and write. Otherwise this way of writing is going to provoke people and they would not spare you. Remember, you and your friends may hate the former President to the core, but he is still one of the most, if not the most, popular politicians in Ghana today.

If the quote was made in the early 1990's, I would not surprise me at all. In 1992, he stood for elections and won despite the stolen verdict. Where he went hundreds of people came out to cheer and see him. He was made to believe that he alone could lead Ghana successfully and supported by an equally energetic wife who drew the women along, what did you expect him to believe. I am one of those who believe that Rawlings could have done far better than what he achieved. If a head of state is not controlled by parliament and has good intentions, he can using a good national economic plan, develop the country systematically. Rawlings achieved raising the political consciousness of the people but now people have seen other leaders and can draw the conclusion that with his lifestyle now , he may not be as selfless as we were made to believe.

Thank you B.B.for your objective and transparent analysis.After nearly twenty years of Black majority rule,Blacks in South Africa live in deplorable conditions with no jobs,no decent housing and lack of education.All well-wishers were looking up to Mandela and his ANC for a total transformation of the unacceptable state of affairs.We expected Mandela's ANC to put a plan in place to empower BLACKS to take their destiny in their own hands but this has not happened in almost twenty years.This is the dark side of Mandela's legacy.

The ghettos are still there, lack of electricity, good housing sanitation and the almighty poverty is wide spread among black people. South Africa has the resources to turn the black areas around. The agreement to give political power to the blacks and allow the whites to control the purse was a bad arrangement. Ask Winnie Mandela and she will tell you the same.

Kusasi, be objective and give credit where it is due. I, JJ Rawlings, sincerely confess that my achievements are nowhere near the achievements of Nkrumah. It is for that reason Nkrumah's statue stands in front of the African Union Headquaters in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, and mine is nowhere, not even in Ghana. Everybody can see and feel what Nkrumah did, even the electricity you enjoy was brought by him. I only tried to stamp out corruption, but the Party I founded is now a Loot and Share Party. So, KUSASI, thank you for being a fanatical supporter, but acknowledge the truth, I am nowhere near the founder of our nation, the great Osagyefo Dr. Kwame Nkrumah.

Upon all Sampson foolishness we still blame Delilah that is how the world is people always put blame on one other, even it was in existence when Adam sinned he blamed God for given him Eve, Eve also blamed God for creating the snake and the snake should also blamed who? If your parents are fools does that means that you are a fool? Only black Africans I repeat only black Africans won't learn sense from the past so always fooling themselves why am I saying so? Since the time immemorial black Africans has been victimized to Europeans sinister but still never learn sense and always following their ways, from slavery to colonization, genocide, tribal wars, etc are there to teach us lessons.
J.E. Kwegir Aggrey said something about African, I quote: “My people of Africa, we were created in the image of God, but men have made us think we sare chickens, and still we think we are, but we are Eagles. Don't content with the food for chickens! Stretch forth your wings and fly!" J.E Kwegir Aggrey was speaking to Africans and for that matter Ghanaians as well, he was speaking as one who have vision for his people, he was speaking as one who knew the westerners way of thinking about Africans but yet still we encomium them we still called them our friends but in their minds they see us as their worst enemies.
Kwegir Aggrey said that Ghanaians and Africans as a whole, don’t content with the food for chickens because we are not chickens but rather humans created by YHWH, and my question is are we not content with the food for chickens? The answer is big yes with capital (B), if we are content with the food for chickens, then it means we as people of Africa and Ghana to be precise are chickens yes with capital (Y), why should it happened upon all our resource we are still chickens to the Europeans? After they abolished the slave trade they replaced it with colonization and after independence, they introduce war, upon all those mishaps and, the chaos they have caused in Africa the continent cannot rise on its own so African leaders seek something called foreign AID from western countries and remember, if the Devil promise to give you 10 percent of something, there are two things involve either he will demand 20 percent from you or you will succumb to his decisions so anything he tells you, you will do it or you give out your property and this is what is going in Africa or Ghana.
This is how the world market is about, in the world market the more you destroy your opponent the more your things are been purchase on high prices ever since the Europeans came in contact with black Africans they have found many ways to tarnish their image, example is the Evolution of Charles Darwin and his bogus scientist propounded, the idea behind the evolution simple means black people are not humans they are less evolved, so they started publishing books that can destroy the image of Africans, the more they tried to tarnish our image the more YHWH intervene for us. In their various meetings they planned how to destroy black people but our God is God who never allowed their plans to succeeded in Akan language they called Him Onyankr)pong, in Ewe language they called Him Mawu, in Ga language they called Him Attaanyomo is true that our ancestors knew God, so God also never allowed their evil purpose to succeeded. These entire unscrupulous acts happened when you and I were not born, how it is reflecting in our lives today? The evolution theory led to something called race and racism came out of race, racism is the last weapon to defeat the blacks, but this time they are not doing it alone but have got support from the east, the reason been that the east who never came to contact with Africans copied everything from the west and have lied about it and are saying that is their history now you see how the trend is going, so whom to trust east or west?
At times I asked myself so many question concerning black Africans upon all what these people are doing to us we still follow them, we still trade with them, upon all what they did and what they’re doing to us, another question also popped my mind why African leaders perform poorly when they elected as president, ministers, mps etc, African leaders steals the nation money and deposited in western countries, why they don’t care about their citizens? The new slavery system has taken over in our modern era, in this era is not about selling your follow human being to them, but selling your conscience to them. Then if modern slavery is about selling one conscience to the westerners then it means many Africa leaders have sold their conscience to them? Apparently yes. What I’m saying it takes critical thinkers and nature incliners to understand and know that am speaking the truth. Now Africans leaders have sold their conscience to the westerners, so the leaders are enemies to their citizens, so now Ghanaians or Africans are still slaves to west through their leaders. They have set our leaders as billboard but in reality they are still operating their slavery system and at this time with our prominent people of which some people consider them as literate in our society, that is why in my early written I stated that Ghana education is pseudo education with pseudo intellectuals it will be hard for any educational elites in Ghana to identify this if am lying.
Someone will tell me that, what I’m saying is rhetoric because there is no evidence. In United State of America system of government if you’re a governor and you refused to go by some secret society in USA constitution then definitely you will be assassinate example is J.F. Kennedy, if you want more information read this book, THE SECRET TERRORIST, the Author of the book name is BILL HUGHS. These people have the upper hand in all the biggest institution in the world talking of IMF, WORLD BANK, etc the one and the only governor who never succumbed to their decision is Kwame Nkrumah but he too was a power drunk. So immediately the poor citizens elect their leaders from then, the leaders becomes enemy to them by taking them back to slavery but at time is a conscience slavery or I called it slavery by conscience, poor citizens is not your fault to elect people to lead you as a nation but the fact is those leaders are slaves to their western masters so they take advice from their masters more than their citizens, they serve in the interest of their master but not the interest of their citizens.
When one becomes president in Africa and he/she is going for loan this is what they asked him/her are you going to use our constitution to rule? because they are slaves already they agree to them and after collecting it they begin to sell out the nation assets to them and devalue some valuable things in the nation, some of our leaders sold some nation assets to the Europeans for them to have power again in our nation, some of them devalued the education system, the currency etc on what grounds can Africa country buy a national assets in western countries? But when you come to Ghana you see the western countries buying our national assets oh what a moron country with moron people, anyone who doesn’t believe in slave trade, this form of slave trade is there for you to see. Now in the olden day’s slavery, they were selling humans but at this time our billboard leaders are selling the national assets and have devalued our valuable things such as our education system and our currency. The back bone of any country is education; any countries which have good education system develops so as it currency as an economic factor, now how can we say about Ghana? Poor education system and poor currency oh Ghana why? Now the nation is financially handicap and the leaders have filled their tummy with the national money corruption has become a canker among our leaders.
Condoleezza Rice, US general secretary in former President Bush administration once attended AU meeting and addressed our leaders not to trust east or west because they are coming for their own interest but not the interest of Africa, but what do we see because our puppet or billboard leaders have sold their conscience to them they still follow them, no wonder we are still slaves. We are still slaves my brothers and sisters, let’s not deceived ourselves that we are in the 21st century so everything has changed, it’s still going on, our national assets are been sold to them now they have say in our affairs oh God have mercy on poor Africa Ghana, you’re not in chains so you think is not true but it is happening day in and day out right in front of your nose. When our leaders come as president ministers and mps, they only think about themselves and how to sell a nation asset to their master. How can a president after looting and sold the national assets through dubious means and upon all the money he looted still demanding for an ex-gracias? How a president can kill some people because they have some little amount of money in their accounts and also have borrowed money from the bank and this same president sold national assets to his wife, looted the state, devalued our educational system and then sent his children to school in abroad? How a president can increased his salary 100% and are paying huge amount of judgment debts to some people? How a president can devalue our currency, sold national assets and sent away his follow Africans to their country? So you see the list can go on and on without endless, they all puppet or billboard leaders who are serving and were served the interest of the west by sending us to slavery.
No matter how you will vote for NPP or NDC they are all puppet or billboard leaders whose aim is to send us to slavery so citizens be careful don’t let these people ideologies entice you to fall a victim they have done and have succeeded. So why are you worry about these stomachticians who called themselves politicians whiles we can kick them off? So why are you worry about our puppet or billboard leaders while we can kick them off? I try to let my people understand the reality of 1800 theory from Charles Darwin, it fresh in their memory and when copy east who also copied read it, is the same thing but the victimization is upon my people back the more foolish they become oh God save your people. Now let’s answer the few questions are we not chickens? We are because we are getting AID, second hand clothes, fake things etc. I do not hate east or west neither do I hate Africans but the truth is the truth, stand for the truth always stand alone. Stay tune with me, more things are coming to explode your mind. E-mail wellsbrains2000@yahoo.com, whatsapp 008613566124757

You cannot compare Rawlings to Mandela because that latter didn't shed anyone's blood; he didn't incite tribes against each other in South Africa, neither did he openly accuse others of corruption or call them horrible name as Rawlings did to ex-Prez. Kuffour and his NPP party. Please spare us this pain; Ghanaians have experience a great deal of pain already. Just watch your words.

Did you read about that stupid Ashanti land guard - he just picked a gun, walked onto a plot of land and the next thing he did was to shoot 'poooo' killing a whole human being in a split second. This academic aggro of yours is nonetheless the equivalent of the stinking village aggression often displayed by your kinsmen – the ‘veritable kumapim brigade’.

l am shocked at the shallow mindedness that a number of people's commenting on this article with a largely deceptive article are showing via your comments which seek to vilify jj. ls it the case that you simply can't realise that the headline is at variance with the body which in itself is not founded on direct interview with jj or a statement attributed to him direct? every thing is built on the foundation of hearsay, what a poor article.

I appreciate your ratings. I take you as one of the surrogates whose job is to rebuff every opinion article at all cost. At least I make you relevant before you bosses. In retrospect, I deserve thank you from you.

Nkrumah B.B is not a honest person and intellectual. He is an hypocrite and liar. How can he, based on something he has been told by a friend, give this kind of title to his article? Had he hear such a statement from JJ Rawlings himself? Or he just wanted Ghanaians to attack President Rawlings? that's not honest and good. In any case, Rawlings has his lovers and fans like he has also his opponents. Let's wait and see.

INFO TO:

H.E.PRESIDENT OF GHANA JOHN DRAMANI MAHAMA

SPECIAL INFO ALERT TO:

H.E.DR.MR.PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA

HON. SECRETARY OF STATE JOHN KERRY

H.E. UNITED NATIONS SECRETARY GENERAL BAN-KI MOON

DATE: MONDAY, DECEMBER 9, 2013

SUBJECT: THIS IS TO REGRETTABLY SEND MESSAGE OF CONDOLENCES TO THE GOVERNMENT, PEOPLE OF SOUTH AFRICA AND THE BEREAVED FAMILIES AND FRIENDS OF H.E.FORMER PRESIDENT OF SOUTH AFRICA NELSON MANDELA OF THE SAD DEATH OF THE FORMER PRESIDENT.

THAT IT IS ALWAYS SAID AND POSTULATED THAT "TO EVERY LIFE JOURNEY, THERE IS A BEGINNING AND THERE IS ALSO DEFINITELY AN END" AND HEREIN, AGAIN NOT ONLY THE PEOPLE OF SOTH AFRICA AND AFRICA BUT THE ENTIRE WORLD WOKE UP AND HEARD THE NEWS ON THE AIR-WAVES OF THE SOUNDS OF RADIO AND TELEVISION THE SAD DEATH OF THE LEGENDERY AND A MAN I PERSONALLY CALLED "THE DOYEN OF SOUTH AFRICA DEMOCRACY AND THE RULE OF LAW" DEMISED.

THAT DEATH OCCURRENCE AGAIN, IS ANOTHER PROOF OF THE FACT THAT "DEATH IS INEVITABLE TO ANY MAN OR WOMAN NO MATTER THE STATURE OF ACHIEVEMENTS OF THE PERSON AND NO MATTER WHAT FATE OF HEIGHTS ATTAINED IN BOTH SOCIAL, RELIGIOUS, POLITICAL AND OTHER SOCIETAL STRATIFICATION CLASS THE PERSON ATTAINED THAT WHEN THE HOUR MOMENT OF TIME ARRIVES WHICH IS UNKNOWN TO US THOUGH MEDICAL SCIENCE HAS MADE SUCH AN INROAD INTO SUCH FATE DETERMINATIONS BUT STILL HIDDEN FORM ALL OF US IS "THE EXACT DAY, THE EXACT TIME, HOUR, MINUTES AND SECONDS" OF SUCE INEVITABLE OCCURRENCE ARE STILL HIDDEN FROM EVEN THE BEST SCIENTISTS OF THE WORLD.

MOREOVER, WHAT IS MORE INTRIGUING IN NATURE, CHARACTER AND FORM ARE THAT SCIENCE CANNOT PREVENT OR STOP SUCH OCCURRENCE IF THE TIME ARRIVED FOR IT TO OCCUR.

IT IS ONE OF SUCH EVENTS AGAIN THAT THE WORLD IS WITNESSING AGAIN, THAT THE GREAT LEGENDERY "MADIBA" H.E.FORMER PRESIDENT OF SOUTH AFRICA NELSON MANDELA HASS PAASED AWAY TO ETERNITY.

THAT NO WORD OR WORDS IN THIS PLANET WORLD CAN OR COULD BEST DESCRIBE THE MAN "MADIBA" AND EVEN IF THERE IS OR THERE ARE THEN THOSE WORDS MUST BY NOW BE EXHAUSTED IN VIEW OF THE VARIOUS MESSAGES AND CONDOLENCES EXPRESSED BY WORLD LEADERS AND ALL OTHERS.

HOWEVER, SINCE TRUTH NEEDS NO DECORATIONS OF WORDS BUT THE BARE FACTS THAT I REGRETTABLY SUBMIT THAT NOT ONLY THE PEOPLE OF SOUTH AFRICA AND AFRICA THAT LOST THIS GREAT LEADER AND INSPIRER BUT THE ENTIRE WORLD LOST A TRUE GREAT MAN WHO WAS THE "DOYEN OF SOUTH AFRICA DEMOCRACY AND THE RULE OF LAW".

THAT HE WAS A VISIONARY LEADER AND OPPORTUNITY GIVER AND CREATED THE PLATFORM FOR ALL OTHERS TO BE INVOLVED IN THE GOVERNANCE OF SOUTH AFRICA WHEN HE WAS FINALLY RELEASED FROM 27 YEARS JAILED AND BECAME THE FIRST BLACK ELECTED PRESIDENT OF SOUTH AFRICA.

THOUGH HE HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO SERVE A SECOND TERM BUT HE VOLUNTARILY GAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO HIS VICE PRESIDENT IN THE PERSON OF H.E.FORMER PRESIDENT OF SOUTH AFRICA THOMAS MBEKI WHO WAS SUCCESSFULLY ELECTED AS THE SECOND BLACK PRESIDENT OF SOUTH AFRICA.

THAT THE MOST SPECTACULAR DISPENSATION OF THE LATE FORMER PRESIDENT H.E.NELSON MANDELA WAS THAT HE APPOINTED THE WHITE PRESIDENT DURING THE APARTHEID REGIME WHO ADOPTED DIALOGUE TO FREE NELSON MANDELA FROM PRISON H.E. FORMER WHITE RACE PRESIDENT DE CLERK HIS SECOND VICE PRESIDENT AND MADE THE GOVERNMENT "AN ALL INCLUSIVE GOVERNMENT".

THAT IF THERE IS ANY HONOUR TO BE DONE TO H.E.FORMER PRESIDENT NELSON MANDELA LEGACY THEN THE ENTIRE WORLD MUST GIVE "PEACE A CHANCE TO RULE IN THE WORLD".

THAT DIALOGUE TO BE ADOPTED TO RESOLVE CONFLICTS SITUATIONS AND IF THERE SHOULD BE ANYTHING WORTH TO FIGHT THEN I RESPECTFULLY SUBMIT THAT IT SHOULD BE A FIGHT AGAINST "POVERTY, SICKNESS AND DISEASES, HUNGER AND IGNORANCE" AND FOR THESE CANCERS THERE ARE NO EXCUSE(S) FOR THE WORLD TO ADOPT A COLLECTIVE APPROACH TO FIGHT THEM TO GIVE A BEFITTING TRIBUTES AND TO PROTECT THE LEGACY OF THE LATE H.E.FORMER PRESIDENT OF SOUTH AFRICA NELSON MANDELA, THERETO.

MAY I NOW REGRETTABLY CONVEY TO THE GOVERNMENT AND THE PEOPLE SOUTH AFRICA AND THE BEREAVED FAMILIES AND FRIENDS OF MY CONDOLENCES AND ALSO TO REMIND THEM THAT MY THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS ARE WITH THEM.

MAY HIS SOUL REST IN PERFECT PEACE!

I ALWAYS WONDER WHY PEOPLE OF THIS FORUM COMMENTS ARE LACK OF SUBSTANCE AND INTELLIGENCE. ARE YOU ALL GHANIANS? OR STRANGERS TO THE HISTORY OF THE WORLD AND GHANA AS A COUNTRY?. YOU GUYS HAVE TO READ MORE TO HELP YOU REFLECT ON WORLD MATTERS. I HAVE SOME QUESTIONS FOR YOU ALL.
1. WHAT STOP GHANA FROM DEVELOPMENT AFTER THE INDEPENDENCE.
2. DO WE SEE IT WAS BETTER TO HAVE LET NKRUMAH TO DO HIS OWN THING WITH ONLY ONE PARTY SYSTEM IN THE COUNTRY AND ONE PRESIDENT TO DELIVER HIS DREAMS TILL THE LATE 1990'S? ( COMPARE TO EASTERN COUNTRIES WHO PRACTICED THAT GOVERNMENT)
3.WHAT WAS GHANA'S POLITICAL AND ECONOMIC LIFE LOOK IN THE 70'S BEFORE RAWLLINGS TOOK OVER?
4.WHO WAS ACHEAMPONG AND WHAT ARE HIS EDUCATIONAL OR INTELLECTUAL BACKGROUND TO GOVERN A COUNTRY.
5. WHO IS AKUFO ADO AND WHAT DO HE KNOW ABOUT GROWING AN ECONOMY OR MANAGING A COUNTRY.
5. HAVE YOU ALL STUDIED THE BACKGROUND OF NKRUMAH AND REASONS WHY THE WHITE-MAN DID NOT LIKE HIM FOR AFRICA.
6.HOW MANY OF YOU CAN DRAW ATTENTION TO THE MANIPULATION OF FOREIGN GOV'MENTS IN THE AFFAIRS OF AFRICA FOR THEIR BENEFIT.

Rawlings will by all standard br remembered by any deep progressively thinking Ghanaian and a patriot apart from his own 'nyebroist' trokosi kinsmen and some buffoonery blind 'ntafours, groups Rawling will go down the bad history as the bloody monster killer Pinochet of Chile.

Whilst Mandela came to heal and unite his people through reconciliation to forgive and forget, the poor hungry Rawlings simply came violently with hatred, killed a lot and politically disunited our country and destroyed our economy and the once envious education system.

Please no one dare to relate Rawling to the likes of great Osagyefo Kwame Nkrumahs, Patrice Lumubers, Amilcal Cabrals, the Yaa Asantewahs and the Nyereres.

Rawlings is nothing but a criminal monster killer and a con man who faked as a socialist revolutionary.
