Let’s keep values of Rawlings – Agumenu

Accra, Nov. 12 GNA – Special Assistant to late President Jerry John Rawlings, Dr. Donald Agumenu, says Ghana must keep the values of the late President.

He said the values of probity and accountability were what the country needed to fight corruption and urged the populace to uphold them dearly.

Paying glowing tribute on the fourth anniversary of the passing of Flt. Lt Jerry John Rawlings today in a news brief, Dr. Agumenu said his Boss “blazed through trials, tribulations and uncommon complexities” to bequeath a worthy legacy in Ghana’s democratic process.

“The density of his contributions to Ghana’s country’s democratic architecture, peace and security transcended the corridors of Africa,” he observed.

According to Dr. Agumenu, former President Rawlings “will forever be remembered by both his lovers and adversaries at large as the man who stood for truth and justice.”

To commemorate the occasion, the National Democratic Congress (NDC) held a special wreath-laying ceremony at the Party headquarters in Accra.

Mr. Kofi Attoh, a member of the cadres corps, addressed the gathering.

Former President Rawlings succumbed to a short sickness at the Korle Bu Teaching Hospital on 12th November, 2020.
