Kumasi, Dec. 23, GNA – Former President Jerry John
Rawlings, has asked Ghanaians to be extra vigilant and allow truth
to prevail on December 28 presidential run-off elections. He said a time had come for Ghanaians to give truth a
chance and allow justice to thrive in order to have a better future for
all. Addressing a press conference in Kumasi on Monday to
mark the beginning of a campaign tour of the Ashanti region, former
President Rawlings said Ghana had reached a very crucial point in
its history and there was the need for the people to ensure that truth
prevailed. He said there was so much decay in the system and there
was the need for a change. Former President Rawlings urged the media to let people
know the truth in their reportage always. Vice admiral Owusu Ansah, former Navy Commander,
attributed the influx of illicit drugs into the country and the depletion
of the country’s fish stock to the neglect of the Navy, adding that
the situation posed a great danger to the nation. Brigadier-General Nunoo Mensah, former Chief of
Defence Staff, said he broke away from the New Patriotic Party
(NPP) as a result of greed by some party functionaries in the NPP. He said it was time people stood up to resist acts that
sought to ruin the future of the nation. Mr Daniel Ohene Agyekum, Ashanti regional Chairman
of the NDC, said the time to set a new trend in Ghana was now and
called on Ghanaians to support the change that was coming to
them.
