President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo should have apologised on behalf of late former President Jerry John Rawlings "for the pain that he caused", according to Dr. Arthur K. Kennedy.
Speaking on the back of the burial of the former President, Arthur Kennedy said he would have wished Rawlings had apologised personally before his demise, but since he couldn't President Akufo-Addo should have done it on his behalf.
"I would have wished that he apologised for the pain he caused but unfortunately he didn't so I would say may he rest in peace, but may his victims also rest in peace," he said.
Dr Arthur Kennedy who was speaking in an interview on Neat FM believes the founder of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) 'wasted our time' with his 'leadership'.
"I think that he meant well but his leadership by and large wasted our time . . . I wish that before Mr Rawlings was buried, President (Akufo-Addo) on behalf of all of us had apologised to those who were victims of the AFRC and PNDC revolution . . . we should be careful what we celebrate," he indicated.

However, T.T. Caterno, a member of the Communication team of the NDC criticised Dr Arthur Kennedy for saying the former President 'wasted our time' with his leadership.
Speaking on the same platform, he said even though no human being is perfect, Rawlings' regime was not a waste of time.

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.
asonya!
