Third daughter of former President Jerry John Rawlings, Amina has disclosed how her father’s love for nature was made manifest even when he departed from the world.
Recounting events which unfolded among his canines at his residence, Amina Agyeman Rawlings indicated without citing their number, that they gathered around her father’s usual sitting spot and howled throughout the night.
“You made sure we grew up appreciating and loving nature. Always around animals, always in the field, always enjoying the freedom in nature.
“You created your very own Garden of Eden, full of all manner of animals living in harmony, where they would otherwise be each other’s lunch!
“From Jack Parlance your rooster to the wild geese who still think they own your home, to your doves, hawks and your many dogs to name but a few.
“It is no wonder, that at the moment of your departure, your dogs gathered around your usual sitting spot, howling till they eventually slept from exhaustion,” she noted in her farewell tribute to her father.
It is no secret that former President Flight Lieutenant Jerry John Rawlings was a deep lover of nature and animals as has been accounted on a number of occasions by all who came in contact with him.
So much so that, as far back as while in senior high school, Mr. Rawlings was the only one who was able to ride a notorious horse known to all as ‘Lucifer’. Riding this horse required one to be able to do so without a brass and thus the former president was one of only two people who could do so.
A former student of Achimota and Minister of Health, Alex Segbefia indicated that only ‘geniuses’ like Rawlings could ride ‘Lucifer’.

AS DESCRIBED BY KWKU BAAKO, "RWLINGS WAS A WLKING CRIMINL". HE WAS MURDERER AND A PRISONER OF CONSCIENCE FOR HIS CRIME AGAINST HUMANITY WHICH KEPT CRYING TO THE HEAVENS. THE WORLD HAS KNOWN VERY FEW WICKED PEOPLE LIKE RAWLINGS WHO IN THE TIME OF PEACE AND NOT WAR TIE PEOPLE TO THE POLES TO EXECUTE THEM WITHOUT JUST TRIAL . ALL THE PEOPLE HE EXECUTED, WETHER IN SECRET OR FALSELY ACCUSED HAD NO CHANCE TO DEFEND THEMSELVES AGAINS THE LIES DND FALSEHOOD MADE AGAINST THEM. THEY DID NOT RECEIVE JUSTICE. THIS MAKES RAWLING AND HIS COLLABORATORS THE MOST WICKED GOVERNMENT IN THE HISTORY OF GHANA. THANK GOD HE IS DEAD TO CLOSE THAT CHAPTER . I HOPE HIS COLLABORATORS WOULD BE WISE AND REPENTENT ENOUGH TO KEEP THE SLEEPING DOG LIE AND REFRAIN FROM CELEBRATING THE JUNE 4, DECEMBER 31 OR ANY OTHER DAY THAT PROVOKE THE MEMORY OF THE MOST WICKED AND SENSELESS REGIME OF GHANA HISTORY. ALL WHO CONTINUE TO DO THAT WILL ONE DAY DIE SHAMEFULLY AS IT HAS HAPPENED TO RAWLINGS. HIS DEATH IS CLOUDED IN SHAME. NO ONE CAN ESCAPE THE WRATH OF GOD. THE CLAIM OF HIS NEGLECTED CHILDREN SHOWS HIM AS DISHONEST, IRRESPONSIBLE AND HYPOCRITE. HE WAS NEVER ANYTHING HE CLAIMED TO BE IN SPITE OF ALL THE NOISE OF PROBITY AND ACCOUNTABILITY HE MADE. THE NEGLECT OF HIS BIOLOGICAL CHILDREN AND HIS REFUSAL TO DO DNA TO UNRAVEL THE TRUTH ABOUT THEM INDICATE THAT RAWLINGS WAS NEVER EVER WHAT HE CLAIMED TO BE. GOD IS MAKING THIS KNOW SO THAT ALL MAY REALISE THAT THE EVIL MEN DO LIVES AFTER THEM. AKUFFO ADDO DID WHAT POLITICIANS WOULD LIKE TO DO IN THE NAME OF POLITICAL CORRECTNESS. HOWEVER, IT IS TIME FOR US TO CALL A SPADE A SPADE TO PROMOTE JUSTICE AND FAIRNES FOR GENUINE HEALING OF OUR SOCIETY. WE MAY FAIL, AS HUMAN, TO BE TRUTHFULL BUT GOD WILL NEVER OVERLOOK SUCH DEEDS OF WICKEDNESS. EVEN DAVID, A GOOD MAN WAS PUNISH FOR HIS EVIL DEEDS. SO ANY COLLABORATION AND CONDONING OF CRIME AND WICKEDNESS ALSO NEVER GO UNPUNISHED. WHAT IS HAPPENING IN RAWLINGS FAMILY IS A TRUE TESTIMONY. IN FACT, HISTORY SHOWS THAT THE PUNISHMENT OF THE EVIL PEOPLE DO IS VERY MUCH REALISED IN THEIR COLLABORATORS AND THEIR DECENDANTS WHO DO NOT REPENT IN THE CRIME OF THEIR ANCESTORS.
He hated human beings and loved animals? No wonder he easily authorised the killing of the Supreme Court judges and the Army Officer. No wonder he also authorised the execution of the generals after 4th June coup. He loved to kill others and was scared of being killed? Something was wrong with this man.
