Okay, sir, I do respect your views about J. J. Rawlings that he was the most corrupt President of Ghana, according to you. The fact remains that although he may not have been perfect as a human, he definitely made Ghana better than he met it. The Continent of Africa can attest to this, & we do appreciate his little contribution to the people of Africa!!!
Jerry Rawlings was a brutal military dictator who made two military coups and murdered his countrymen including , heads of state and judges and brought a lot of pain and suffering to Ghanaians. He seized sveral individual companies whose owners he imprisoned arbitrarily or forced them into exile. Unstable , he was first, a maxist and made Ghanaians very poor, wretched and famished , but later adopted the liberal economy, having been isolated by the West as a marxist. He finally metamorphosed into a democrat with a constitution, thereafter Ghanaians began to enjoy human rights and some marginal improvement in the economy. After 19 long years in power , Rawlings could not transform Ghana as he had thought. He is however credited for relinquishing power 8 years after becoming a democrat by force , but left Ghana still a poor, untransformed , underdeveloped , corrupt and very indebted nation today. The question one may ask is : Like many military regimes in Africa, which significant improvement did Rawlings' military coups and regimes bring to Ghanaians after about 20 years in power ? Was it not a waste of Ghana' s time , making Ghanaians guinea pigs for experiment ?
Tell me what improvement other govt after him has done? He came to power in Ghana were there was no bread to eat.. He gave Ghana free and fair election, we don't have that in our country. Ghana has opportunities to choose leaders that can transform Ghana. That's enough achievements for me, if that is the only thing he achieved.
May God bless his soul… He was a man of honor 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
The best Ghana has ever and will neve have.
The late Jerry John Rawlings was a man of destiny who fulfilled his destiny...
DESTINY TO MURDER AND STEAL??
ARE YOU A GHANAIAN?
@@anstaranstarmention one good leader who never kill before
Enjoyed your video👏 sidenote: you showed a video of frmr SA president Zuma instead of Atta Mills
That's what I'm talking about---- someone like Jerry Rawlings who had not only a vision, but total, complete, ....vision for Africa 🌍! May his soul rests in peace ---- yes perfect eternal ❤️ 👌 ♥️ 🙏 💙 💖 ❤️ peace!
REST ON PAPA NO ONE BE LIKE YOU, YOUR RECORD AND LEGACY REMAINED UNBEATABLE, MAY ALMIGHTY ALLAH OVERLOOKED YOUR SHORTCOMINGS, ACCEPT YOUR RETURNED AND GRANT YOU ALIJANA FRIDAUS AMINA.
A Legend❤
A what legend? Black man sense, the one who came to destroyed everything because of envy and hatred . Where are the factories, industries and the companies such as Akasanuma, Sanyo, Dumas, Asutsuare Sugar, Komenda Sugar, Tafo Rubber, Akosombo Textiles, Juapong Textiles, Ghana Brigade, GNTC, UAC, UTC, GIHOC ,Nsawam Cannery and others. Rawlings sold them to his family and leaders of ndc leaders to become millionaires today and denied the youth of today jobs. Shiakai a legend my foot. Be wise a bit black man
Well done Papa Jay Ghana's Best President after Kwame Nkrumah!!!!
Better than Nkrumah
May his soul continue to rest peacefully. A true Pan African hero.
🙏🙏🙏
Good analysis! Would have been way better if the image of Atta Mills wasn't shown as the ex president of South Africa. That was shameful
That's a mistake from my editor but I have taken responsibility since the first day of publication of the video. I appreciate your observation.
JJ was a brave man. He wasn't a coward ,like those who hid under their beds when there was tension. Great man . He is not dead oooo
If he wasn't a coward why did he introduce the indemnity clause?
The image at 11:48 is of President Zuma, fmr,from South Africa, not Atta Mills
in Kenya, we need a Jerry Rawlings
J.J Rawling thomas sankara lumumba are and will be forever and aftican nationaliste and patriotic
May his cherished soul ever rest in the bosom of the Lord.
And if he left them, what do u think they would have done to him? Do you get the picture?. What was rampant at that time? Friendship?
Only Our Creator knows the right person we can't judge. 🎉🎉🎉
😮
Actually what saved JJ Rawlings from being executed was a leaked letter that General Olusegun Obasanjo wrote to General Fred William Akufo asking why he (Akufo) was holding a useless trial for the coup plotters. Obasanjo suggested that they be executed immediately so as to not give the wrong ideas to young Nigerian army officers who were watching events in Ghana. Upon hearing this a group of Ghanaian military officers led by Major Boakye Gyan stormed the prison and released Rawlings. The rest was history.
This is interesting.
@@backinhistory9 This is where I got that Information from- an interview given by Major Boakye Gyan himself. If you don't mind I will love to post the link here. It adds a twist as to why and how Rawlings escaped execution. Do I have your permission, sir?
And Obasanjo's Legacy in Nigeria is the suffering Masses Of Nigerians. Very gifted & talented citizens but the country keeps failing them.
@@ekusondebango3568please post it here, share the link
@@Judging_Politics_Network Actually what you described is not Obasanjo's legacy at all. He laid some solid foundation both as military dictator and as civilian leader only for those who followed him to dismantle the whole thing. I can list some of his accomplishments but why even bother.
Seemed a good man, very few today, hardly know of one, possibly the lady from Germany AM.
Mans greed will be his destruction!
Why was Zuma's picture used when talking about Atta Mills?
Interesting narrative, though I personally don't agree with everything.
May God bless J. J. Rawlings's love for his country. He died in a Hospital in Ghana in a state hospital. Unlike other foolish presidents who die in other country hospitals bcoz they allowed Hospitals in their countries to delapidate in the name of sanctions
Despite all these killings by Rawlings, has corruption stopped in Ghana? And if it hasn’t stopped, is Ghana expecting for another Rawlings to carry out more executions?
The execution was not only to stop corruption alone, Rawlings selfless agenda brought a different dimension into the entire Ghana as a country and its citizens as Ghanaians, there are many horrible things going on in Nigeria which an average Ghanaian wouldn't ever want to get involved with, such as internet fraud and scam, terrorism, kidnapping, boko haram in Nigeria. Rawlings instilled that self discipline and dignity into all Ghanaians, during Rawlings reign robbery, corruption, bad leadership and politician embezzling public fund reduced drastically so in a larger aspect his ideology really affected Ghanaians till date, he forced Ghanaians to live uprightly.
Nigeria needed military men like J.J Rawlings
He stabilized the polity in that after his tanure democracy was sustained from one democratically elected president to another. But his regime was not with its flaws. Rich men who worked for their money were victimized and even their vehicles seized, even innocent market women, and came with an egalitarian blur that everyone should have one toilets in their houses, some socialist unrealizable thing to do. It was like he hates the rich then even the innocent ones while he became rich himself through the privilages in office. The penalty for corruption is not execution in Ghana but imprisonment. Generals were executed for overthrowing Nkrumah, but he too staged a coup but enacted a law to protect himself. Not just the generals but there was reported killings during his regime. He did well, but has his dark spots too.
Life is too short. The grave yard is our Permanent Home. The grave yard is our True Home. The grave yard is our Lasting Home
Nope. It's either the New Jerusalem coming down out of heaven from God or the lake of fire according to Revelation
The graveyard isn’t our true or permanent home man
What does jacob zuma of south Africa has to do with this video?
Editor's mistake. But I take responsibility for it. Thanks for always stopping by.
The blood shed negates any achievements.The killings were awful.
The killings sent fear to all corrupt people in Ghana
RIP LEGEND
He was the greatest president Ghana ever had next to Nkrumah. Womp3 ah ko wu. Go and mention Ghana anywhere in political circles anywhere in the world. Only two names will be remembered and mentioned. Nkrumah and Rawlings.
Ghana 🇬🇭 need a Military Regime Leader like Jerry Rawlings today, Addo is a Headless 😂foreign Agent France 🇫🇷.
Rawlings is the BEST leader Of Ghana thus far after Nkrumah! He never had even ONE foreign Bank Account.
Your image of President Attah Mills is wrong. You showed a video of Jacob Zuma
I have responded to this previously. That's a mistake from my editor. I have known Zuma too well to make a mistake of that nature. I take responsibility in any case.
Papa Jerry rest in peace!!!
Showing Jacob Zuma of South Africa while talking about John Atta Mills is very bad editing.
Apologies. Pardon my editor. He will be more careful next time. Thanks
Talk abt jack toronto, aka nana addo has also killed people
Rawlings didn't end corruptions but rather a corrupt man himself. He brought indecipline in Ghana. I can't wait for his party NDC ti diet with him. I wonder why his so called father didn't want him.
He was the reason why President Koffour took us to Hippic. He gave us Rawlings Chain.
If you understand economics, you will know thag we didn't need that HIPC after all.
Nothing lasts forever.May he continue to rot in is grave.He ended up being one of richest people in Ghana.This supposedly came to fight corruption.A Big Lie.
Stop fooling and the stupidity
He became worse than those he executed. Today his party ndc leader mahama is corrupt than any other politician in Ghana.
Please how come John Atta Mills could dramatically and genetically changed to Jacob Zuma at 11:48 timeline? Wow. Please check and verify.
Mistaken by my editor. I had long apologised for that and taken responsibility. Many thanks for pointing 👉 it out.
Are you sure they were man! General Acheakpong lol
Oddly, he didn’t have a strong bond with his children. I read he purposefully designed it that way and because of that his children suffered depression from being not connected. 😢Also, how did he ever become president because his Father is a European not a Ghanaian. Therefore, he is not a Son of the Solid. Highly curious.
He was born in Ghana to a Ghanaian mother. How is that confusing?
@@edamable492 Apparently, You are not AFRICAN because you wouldn’t ask this insane question. Whatever YOUR father is what YOU are. He father is a EUROPEAN which Simply means he is NOTTTTTTTTTTT a SON of the SOILD. If his Mother was European and Father is Ghanaian then it’s a TOTALLY DIFFERENT STORY. Stoppppp Popping off at the mouth and Humble yourself and become AFRICAN
@@edamable492 Apparently ur not African. It doesn’t matter if he was born in Ghana. His father is not AFRICAN. In the African history, tradition YOU are where YOUR father is From. Stopppp being a SMART ASSSSS and learn to become an AFRICAN.
If you read enough, you will know he intentionally didn’t have a strong bond with his kids because he could be killed any day and he didn’t want them to be affected
@@NiiCudjoe That LOGIC is INSANE and so are you.
that's Jacob Zuma of S.A not John Atta Mills 😎
Why is Jacob Zuma of south Africa featuring in this narrative?
EXACTLY
They died for their sins against the Ghanaian. The widespread corruption we are seeing today dare not happen in the era of this Great leader. Useless post. Did he kill your father?
You used Zuma's video as mills. Get your facts right
Particularly at what point, please (the location when measured in minutes, please).
Good story telling. I am an adent follower of your channel. The error about Zuma is on minute 11:49 to 11:58
And Covid - 19 executed him.
Not interested
Quite embarrassing to have this half-Euro as the leader.
He executed others now he is dead also😅
Oliver Cromwell wannabe
The animal behind our tribal politics.
You 3 heads of state and thats your achievement.
You have met them very earlier than you expected while there are other older heads of states are still living hsppy life and well respected.
May your nemesis follow you even in yout grave.
JJ the best of all . U guys hate him cos he's not an Ashanti. The peace u are enjoying today is Courtesy JJ. He was an upright man
Nonsense. You guys hate Ashantis for no reason. God punish you for the hatred,envy, jealousy bitterness. Do all people who speak Twi or Akan Ashantis? Why Why and Why?
Yes, an upright man who sold State Owned Enterprises to his wife and cronies and destroyed people's hard work by confiscating their companies.
Rawlings wasn’t corrupt every body knows
What happened to Nsawam cannery, GIHOC and GNTC?
Or you're too young to know. Jerry was the worst.I lived through it and I know. He killed people he didn't trust, people he hated and rich people.
Not forgetting the three judges
What is South Africa's Jacob Zuma's speaking on a podium, where you should have placed John Mills Attah (11:45 - 11:53), doing there?
J.J. Rawlings didn't purposely change his last name to Rawlings, it was done by some entrance examination result that inadvertently addressed him so and he didn't bother correcting it. If I were him, I would not have borne the name of the man who fathered him because the man rejected him at birth and never acknowledged him. Not even when he was an adult, and visited Scotland, did the man relate to him as his son. Jerry met him in his Scotland country home but the man pretended being someone else and told Jerry that John was dead. Jerry knew the man was lying and left -- and never tried to reach out to him thenceforth.
Thanks for your insight. This is great. As for the Zuma photo, sincere apologies, please; it's my editor's mistake. I take responsibility on his behalf, 🙏 please.
@@backinhistory9 👍👍
He killed those he feared
Rawlings executed the 3 former rulers yet they didn't execute him when they could have done so in the past.
Your logic doesn't stand. They had no grounds to sentence him to death; he had every reason to execute them
Rawlings father was Arab
His father was Scottish not Arab
First time I have to disagree with your content. Rawlings is not seeing as the one who fought corruption but rather the man who instituted corruption in Ghana. He died as the most corrupt person in the history of Ghana.
That’s why I have said in the video that some persons see him as the man who fought corruption in Ghana while others see him in a different light altogether and have even described him as draconian and dictatorial.
Great to see you, broh. Please disagree with me anytime you feel like doing so. I do not hate criticism. I will always offer an explanation. Happy new year to you.
😮 really are you sure bro cos no body has fought corruption in ghana better than JJ Rawlings that’s an undeniable fact unless you have some one else in mind also many rather accuse him of going overboard with that even market women with unfair prices were not spared
😊You just one of the so called Ghanaian Tribal Bigots that suffering mentally 😊 Lol.
Rawlings was sent to dealt with the Tribes that we’re fooled and used by the White man against the greatest Son of Africa/Africa’s Messiah 😊!!
So being honest to yourself ( Rawlings and This current Beggar on your Presidential Seat - Akufo Addo ) who is the worst and mad Corrupted?
Lol
@@nathanot1076it started with him. The killings also continued during his time. He wanted rich people dead aswell. He killed many just for sport. He’s not a man to be celebrated!
Big lie
Rswligns as matter of fact WAS A TOGOLESE. WHO CAME TO GHANA. WITH HIS MOTHER....HIS FATHER WAS A SCOTTISH
