Former president Jerry John Rawlings is dead, all you need to know about him

Former president Jerry John Rawlings is dead, all you need to know about him

Ghana’s former President Jerry John Rawlings has died on Thursday November 12. He was 73 years.

He died at the Korle Bu Teaching Hospital in Accra after suffering a short illness.

Jerry John Rawlings profile

He was born in Accra on 22nd June 1947, to a Ghanaian mother from Dzelukope, near Keta, in the Volta Region, and a Scottish father.

He was educated at Achimota School where he obtained his General Certificate of Education ‘O’ Level in 1966.

He enlisted as a Flight Cadet in the Ghana Air Force in August 1967, and was subsequently selected for officer cadet training at the Ghana Military Academy and Training School, Teshie, in Accra.

In March 1968, he was posted to Takoradi in the Western Region to continue his course.

He passed out in January 1969, as a commissioned Pilot Officer. He won the coveted “Speed Bird Trophy” as the best cadet in flying and airmanship.

He earned the rank of Flight-Lieutenant in April 1978. He was an efficient officer with a close rapport with his men.
During his service with the Ghana Air Force, he witnessed the deterioration of discipline and morale, reflecting the corruption of the regime of the Supreme Military Council (SMC) at that time.

As promotion brought him into contact with the privileged classes and their social values, his awareness of the injustices in society was sharpened. He was thus regarded with some unease by the SMC. He read widely and discussed social and political ideas with a growing circle of like-minded friends and colleagues.

On May 28, 1979, Flt.-Lt. Rawlings, together with six others, appeared before a General Court Martial in Accra, charged with leading a mutiny of junior officers and men of the Ghana Armed Forces on 15th May, 1979. There was strong public reaction, especially after his statement had been read in court, explaining the social injustices that had prompted him to act.

The ranks of the Armed Forces, in particular, expressed deep sympathy with his stated aims. When he was scheduled for another court appearance on 4th June, 1979, Flt.-Lt. Rawlings was sprung from custody. With the support of both military and civilians, he led a revolt, which decisively ousted the Supreme Military Council from office and brought the Armed Forces Revolutionary Council (AFRC) into being.

The AFRC, under the chairmanship of Flt.Lt. Rawlings carried out a “house-cleaning exercise” aimed at purging the Armed Forces and society at large of corruption and graft as well as restoring a sense of moral responsibility and the principles of accountability and probity in public life.

Meanwhile, following the programme already set in motion before the 4th June Uprising for civilian administration, general elections were held.

On 24th September 1979, the AFRC handed over to the civilian Government of the People’s National Party (PNP) under President Hilla Limann.

On 31st December 1981, Flt. Lt. Rawlings led a section of the Armed Forces to overthrow the PNP administration. A Provisional National Defence Council (PNDC), composed of both civilian and military members, was established, with Flt-Lt. J.J. Rawlings as the Chairman.

His interests include reading, building model aircraft, horse-riding and swimming. He is married to Nana Konadu Agyeman-Rawlings with whom he has four children – three girls and a boy.

Flt-Lt. Rawlings ceased to be a member of the Ghana Armed Forces with effect from September 14, 1992. He formed the National Democratic Congress, which contested and won the 1992 Presidential and Parliamentary elections. He and the party again won the 1996 elections.

His term of office ended in the year 2000.

He is the joint recipient of the 1993 World Hunger Prize. He holds an Honorary Doctor of Law Degree from Medgar Evers College, City University of New York and Lincoln University Doctorate Degree for Diplomacy and Development.

Shatta Wale blasts Samini for endorsing Nana Addo “He’s a confused liar”

Last week, Samini was in the news for endorsing Nana Addo. That was after the reggae/dancehall singer released a song for his Nana Addo’s campaign dubbed ‘Kpoyaka’.

Many were surprised at Samini’s actions whiles others blamed his ‘dwindling’ relevance for his swift u-turn. Thus, one of the loudest backlashes Samini received for his political endorsement was the fact that he awfully condemned the act few years ago. Besides, Samini was seen in a video stating some time back that he would never endorse any political party.

Moreover, seems Samini’s former arch-rival, Shatta Wale is also not too happy about his decision. Speaking in a recent interview at Angel FM Kumasi, Shatta Wale stated that Samini is confused and a liar for endorsing President Nana Akufo-Addo.

Shatta Wale said:
“You told Ghanaians including your supporters that you will never endorse any political party. You condemned celebrities endorsing political parties, but now Samini has endorsed NPP. He (Samini) is confused and a liar.”

Shatta Wale questioned that if Samini was not a liar, why would he make such a quick U-turn after telling Ghanaians he will never endorse any political party? Nobody should trust Samini again, Shatta said.

“Supporters of Samini and Ghanaians shouldn’t trust Samini again for making a sudden U-turn on political party endorsement,” He continued.

Shatta Wale warns Samini

Shatta Wale then went on to warn Samini that he would soon stop him from deceiving Ghanaians.

“I will surely get time for Samini very soon because I won’t allow him to deceive Ghanaians. You told us you won’t do it but now you are happy doing it. Liar and confused Samini can never be trusted.” Shatta Wale added.

Sarkodie rubbishes Nana Addo as he reacts to his ‘Happy Day’ endorsement “Shout out to JM”

We broke the news of rapper, Sarkodie’s endorsement of the incumbent president, Nana Addo. However, Sarkodie’s first reaction to this endorsement news seems to be quite dicey.

Hours after Sarkodie released Happy Day, the song in which he endorsed Nana Addo, the President tweeted in complement of the song. But Sarkodie being quite frantic with the President, replied telling him that he should not take advantage of him or exploit him[Sarkodie].
