Ewe indigenes in Ghana should consider the memory and legacy of Former President Jerry John Rawlings by voting wisely in the upcoming December polls, the International Ewe Council (IEC) has admonished.In a press release signed by its Director of Communications, Mr.
Livingstone Pay-Charlie to commemorate the fourth anniversary of the passing of Ghana's former President, the body of Ewes in Western Nigeria, Benin, Togo, Ghana and Ivory Coast said "It is a proud moment for us that one of our own was very instrumental and spearheaded the Fourth Republican Status of Ghana.""This is the democracy we are enjoying today.
President Rawlings and his lieutenants laid the foundation and gingerly guarded our development.
The only way to remember his memory is for us all to vote wisely throwing out corrupt, dishonest and selfish leaders.The IEC said that issues of "perceived or threats of intimidation, excessive deployment of security personnel in Ewe enclaves" should not encouraged by the government, traditional leaders and peace-loving citizens of Ghana."The heydays of Rawlings were very turgid with a lot of economic, social and political complexities.
