Former President Jerry John Rawlings on Sunday paid tribute to John Lewis, a civil rights leader and Congressman of Georgia, United States of America, who died on Friday, July 17, at age 80.
In a tweet, he said: "Congressman John Lewis dedicated most of his life to combatting racial segregation, confronting violence with non-violent activism".
"Abused and beaten for seeking equity, he remained fearless and unrelenting."
