Kofi Adams, the spokesperson of former Ghana president, JJ Rawlings, has dared anyone with evidence to come out to accuse his boss of murder during his reign as a military ruler.
Mr. Adams said although there were some excesses during the revolution, Rawlings as the junta leader never had a hand in any killing throughout his military rule.
According to Mr. Adams, �not a single person has so far proven that President Rawlings took a knife or a gun, threw or shot somebody to kill that person. �
�The National Reconciliation Commission (NRC) that some people nicknamed 'nail Rawlings Commission', ostensibly established to do just that, it was all hear-say, we were told this; this man came and he told us this, and so on.
�But, I can say that yes ultimate responsibility rests on his shoulder, that is why he has not minced words when he has had to apologise for some of these excesses and that they were more like a necessary evil that we needed to live with at that time,� Adams added.
Mr. Adams, who doubles as a Deputy General Secretary of the ruling National Democratic Congress, was speaking on Citi FM�s Eyewitness News on Wednesday, where he reacted to comments of a former detainee of the obnoxious Preventive Detention Act (PDA) of 1958, J. S Boye-Doe, who said categorically that God will never forgive Rawlings.
In responce to those comments, Mr. Adams said, �let's even assume that what he [Boye-Doe] is saying was true and you assume God, you can only be mad to assume God because we can never assume God.
"It is only somebody who is not sane in his head that can assume God. �
Mr. Adams also indicated that former President Rawlings has apologised severally for the excesses during the revolution.
He said: �He has apologised many times, he has not stopped talking about the excesses of the revolution, some people said they are not satisfied with that type of apology, I don�t know how they want him to indicate. �
