The former Minister for Information in the NPP administration and member of Parliament for Okere constituency, Hon. Dan Botwe says Ghana faces a possible coup d’etat following comments made by ex-President J. J. Rawlings. The former president after a National Executive Committee of the NDC was quoted to have said “things are not moving on in the right direction so action must be taken.” The former President said Mills is slow in governing the nation accusing him of lacking dynamic leadership and not putting things in their right perspectives. In an interview with Peace FM’s ‘Kokrokoo morning show, Hon. Botwe referred listeners to 1981 when ex president Rawlings organized a coup d’etat against Dr. Hilla Limann. He said similar comments were made before undertaking the treasonable act. Hon. Botwe reminded Ghanaians not to be deceived by the fact that the ex-president helped bring the NDC and President Mills into power, saying he (Rawlings) brought Dr. Limann to power, and turned around 29 months later to overthrow his government. According to him, this shows that the former President expects people he brings to power to kowtow to him, so if president Mills fails, he could use all means to overthrow him like the way he did to former President Limann in 1981.
