We'll Take Back Our Party And Govt...Konadu Is Not Interested In That Chair - Rawlings

The 32nd Commemoration of the June 4th Uprising has ended in Kumasi, and as usual Ex-President Jerry John Rawlings took centre stage pouring out venom once again on the Mills' administration whiles addressing the crowd at the Jubilee Park. Sounding angry at the way the country was being governed, the former President, who spoke right after the former First Lady, Nana Konadu Agyeman Rawlings' address, said there was the need to inject more committed and selfless young people into government than these group of old obstructive, Greedy and Selfish characters currently in power. �Free and fair elections can also be very tricky as we keep discovering all the time...the list is huge, disinformation, misuse of money, etc to destroy good people and they use money to flash around and virtually buy people and at the end of the day your vote, your conscience is being bought and the wrong people are back in power." �What I think we owe this country is to be able to take back our government, take back our party, take back this nation, clean around and prepare, identify a more responsible discipline younger generation and pass the development programme unto them to move this country forward," President Rawlings noted in his speech. He opined that the former First Lady "is not interested in that chair, in that throne, in that seat, we�ve made a mistake that has taken us back and instead of working our way forward, we appear to be continuing in that direction when you gave us back the power�that is when she (Nana Konadu Agyeman Rawlings) said no let�s take it back, not to sit on it but to rectify the mistake that were made, solidify it as we pass it on to a younger generation to move this country onward,� Mr. Rawlings said.
