What's most striking about the great Rawlings is his honesty. He doesn't pussyfoot, sugar coat or mince words like other politicians. When the interviewer said "people don't have money in their pockets", he just said "yeah, that's true". What a man! Even with all his amazing achievements, he was still quick to admit that there was more still to be done. Fantastic leader!
Ghanaians should come and watch .. a president who was driving by himself with no motorcades .. no fleet of cars .. I miss JJ .. best president in my lifetime .. Nkrumah is my hero tho ..
"I'm saying that, we can vote people in and out ...personalities, okay? But my dear, what we need to do in this country is to establish a situation even if it was the devil who should come and sit on top of affairs in Ghana, by virtue of certain procedures, certain practices, the devil cannot get away with doing what he wants. He'll necessarily have to do what the people expect of him. ......... so that Rawlings being here or out, is not really important". What a word!! May the soul of our departed hero rest in eternal peace.
Brother people will forget Papa J but I will never forget him until my last day on this earth, the man with integrity, cried about the situation of his citizens man who wants the citizens leaves better, villages and cities have to get ases to each other, l don't know how to describe him, people just envied him because he wants everyone to be the same like Americans Australia and Europeans , look at today those people who said he is spoiling the country has become the worst ever leaders may his soul rest in peace
@ananejoseph5217 my dear, all these that you have said about Papa J is so true and even less of everything he stood for. As for his haters, the least said about them, better. They portrayed themselves as messiahs, but in reality, they are devil incarnates. 😈
This made me tear up a bit. Jerry's passion for Ghana's development, anger, frustration, and heartbreak etc were all evident in this interview. God rest his soul.
Growing up, I came to know that man; Rawlings and his approach to national issues and the manner in which he tackled them head on. He has paid his dues to our beloved nation-Ghana. We will miss him
What he said must be taken note of. Africa is being kept on a leash all the time. You will have to conform to Western policies and criteria to be qualified for just enough to barely keep your head above water. We are still not learning.
As a revolutionary, I learned a great lesson from J J Rawlings. Never let anyone dictate your destiny. Live a purposeful lifestyle, that way when you are long gone, ur legacy will speak for itself. J J Rawlings, A LIFE Well Lived.
As at now in Africa and else whenever you mention of the name Rawlings,then you have mentioned God's name,I do quite remember he was been named junior Jesus.
I bet 80% of Ghanaians never saw this video.... see how Rawlings was struggling fighting thinking finding ways and means to make Ghana better... .all most Ghanaian, especially my people- the Ungrateful selfish corrupt liars Akan tribe mostly Asante & Akyem clan knew about him back then or even now is the propaganda lies about him and the killings of the evil corrupt selfish greedy bastards who brought us- millions of Ghanaians these calamities.

Yet, they demonized him in certain areas bcos our parents n grandparents were victims
My oh my! What an interview.

They see, they know...all well planned. They push u till you hv no choice than to depend on them
WOW.
These are the documentaries to be shown on tv
That's a true leader❤❤❤

Eeeii .... I saw Asiedu Nketsia ooooo 😂😂😂😂😂 So why are such documentaries not shown on the national television, especially GTV?
Bcos they will tag the tv station as NDC anti NPP etc.
Really? Where is he Asiedu Nketia
Wow
Was that love I see in the eyes of Diane Sawyer?😂😅
11:49mins Rawlings was talking about the devil Akuffo Addo:)
Should the leaders of the 3rd world countries not be outspoken, or courageous?
Great memory
He was nothing but a COWARD ! Hurray to the Guitar Boys ❤
Uneasy lies the head that wears the crown
Who is here 2024
She sounds so discriminatory in this video smh
Ghana hard no be today 😂😂
