The Editor-in-Chief of the New Crusading Guide, Kweku Baako, has said that ex-president Jerry John Rawlings has no right to mount the moral high ground and inflict his ‘holier than thou’ attitude on Ghanaians because he has more cobwebs in his cupboard.According to him, it is typical of Mr. Rawlings to make unsubstantiated allegations against others.Speaking on Metro TV's Good Morning Ghana programme Thursday, Mr. Baaku, an avowed critic of the Rawlingses expressed misgivings on Mr. Rawlings's statements concerning his ‘beef’ with President John Evans Atta Mills.Mr. Rawlings said in a statement signed on Wednesday that his problems with the Mills government stems from the President’s failure to correct and punish officials of the past government for their corrupt practices and to pursue the moral mandate of the people to reinstate truth, transparency and justice which he [Rawlings] believes is leading to institutionalization of crime and corruption among other things.But Malik Baako, incensed at what he terms the “holier than thou” attitude of the ex-president, asked whether Rawlings was the same person under whose watch over 100 prisoners were executed, 246 Ghanaians disappeared under bizarre circumstances, hundreds of Ghanaians put in jail, thousands going into exile, homes getting destroyed while businesses were collapsed.The Editor-in Chief claimed that maligning and undermining others [heads of state] has been ex President Rawlings’ stock-in-trade since the days of Ghana’s first president Dr. Kwame Nkrumah.“If I were him I will thank God and history for favouring me and then mellow in [how I ] go about dealing with my politics,” he advised.Listen to the attached audio for more on Kweku Baako’s comments on Rawlings' misgivingsBy: Dorcas Efe Mensah/myjoyonline.com/Ghana
