CORRUPTION IN GHANA: EXPOSING HYPOCRICY OF RAWLINGS; SEE NO EVIL HEAR NO EVIL, BUT ENJOY MASSIVE CORRUPTION UNDER NDC REGIME

Consistently for decades, former President Rawlings has faced citizens of Ghana with cruel irony of citing innocent Ghanaians and their families for corrupt practices without good grounds. But in any sincere count of corrupt persons in Ghana, Mr. Rawlings must not look far but within his own, the NDC government.

Signing the book of condolence upon demise of Nelson Mandela, Mr. Rawlings once more took President Kufour to the unfair land of baseless criticism. Truth is that, Mr. Rawlings had a very nice opportunity to explain to the deserving Ghanaians, his wife, Mrs. Rawlings' kalabuley way of acquiring the Nsawam Cannery, a state owned factory. He again missed the opportunity to show the fast way by which young soldier who could not afford food and furniture, can now afford houses, cars, and to pay his kids school fees abroad.

Mabey and Johnson happened under the leadership of President Rawlings. So quite clearly, Mr. Rawlings either thinks Ghanaians have forgotten, or wishes we forget the rot he led.

The most unfortunate Mills led NDC government in its shameless and singular purpose of draining Ghana through sketchy judgment debt deals must not be lost so soon on the mind of Mr. Rawlings. The never ending list of Woyome, Watervile, Isofoton, etc, which led to Justice Dotse’s famous assertion of create, loot and share brigade, demands Rawlings' attention. Ghanaians are surely much awake and wiser than Mr. Rawlings takes us for.

Fellows are fairly right to question the sudden silence and blindness of Mr. Rawlings on the massive corruption under President Mahama. From SADA, GYEEDA to SUBAH, huge amounts of money have been paid to undeserving crook and cronies of NDC and their families.

Time and again, NDC which is the creature of Mr. Rawlings has represented colour of corruption, and a platform for scheming sketchy deals against the nation Ghana.

President Rawlings will do himself so much good, sweep Ghana much neat, and gain for himself the moral authority, if he can clean his own house, the NDC with urgency and stop those unnecessary attacks on President Kufour.

Thank you.
