Who cares about Rawlings death is once so what is his problem.
@asem. Rawlings in the first place didn't have any smooth democracy to give us. He st0le our democracy with military force and had to return it to us under strong duress. He never wanted to return Ghana to democratic rule but powerful local and foreign pressures on him made him vomit what he st0le from us. He never did any Ghanaian a favour.
@Simon, at least he gave a smooth democracy which Ghanaians are not making use because of their illiteracy rate.
He who sucks blood, blood must be sucked from him. You do me i do you!
Of course yes! Rawlings has no plan to seek medical attention outside, because for his all most twenty years in control, he will be guilty if he seeks any medical attention outside.
