Former President John Dramani Mahama has stated that, while the late Jerry Rawlings is no longer with them, the ideals and values he espoused are still relevant today.
Mr. Mahama said in a brief statement posted on Facebook to commemorate the 31 December Revolution that the current generation must continue to believe in these ideals.
”Although he has departed from us, the values and ideals of truth and accountability that he espoused remain as relevant today as ever. The stories of our rise and fall, our triumphs and failures are what make up the tapestry of our history.”
He wrote ”Today marks the 41st anniversary of the 31st December Revolution, led by Chairman Jerry John Rawlings.
Although he has departed from us, the values and ideals of truth and accountability that he espoused remain as relevant today as ever. The stories of our rise and fall, our triumphs and failures are what make up the tapestry of our history.
We must, therefore, be guided by the enduring lessons of history to ensure that our proud democracy not only remains intact but also grows stronger.
And we must also guarantee opportunities for the development and prosperity of the Ghanaian people.”
