When Rawlings was president there were some elements in the society who claimed he is not a Ghanaian. They claimed he is either from Scotland or may be from Togo. At present there are some other group of people who claimed JA Kuffour is not a Ghanaian. They claimed Kuffour is from Congo or Sudan. In the remote past it was the great Kwame Nkrumah who was from Liberia, IK Acheampong from Sierra Leone and Dr Hilla Limann from Burkina Faso.
