NPP depicting Rawlings as a ‘killer’ – Ade Coker
Greater Accra Regional Chairman of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), Joseph Ade Coker says the National Patriotic Party (NPP) is on a mission to portray former President, Jerry John Rawlings to Ghanaian youth as a murderer.
According to Ade Coker the NPP is bent on staining the former president’s highly earned reputation and tarnishing his image before he makes the journey to meet his maker.
In a recent documentary by JoyNews, Rawlings is being purported as the mastermind behind the murder of three High Court Judges namely, Justice Fred Poku Sarkodie, Mrs. Justice Cecilia Koranteng-Addow and Justice Kwadwo Agyei Agyapong, as well as a retired army officer, Major Sam Acquah, who were callously murdered under strange circumstances at the Bundase Military Range in the Accra Plains.
But speaking on the subject for the first time, Ade Coker lamented that Flt. LT. Jerry Rawling’s ‘new friends’; the NPP, are backstabbing him after he backed them to win power from the then NDC Government in the 2016 elections.
“It’s very sad, see what JJ’s new friends are doing to him. At above 70years and preparing to meet your maker, the NPP is exposing you to the youth that you are a murderer”, Ade Coker said.
Mr. Ade Coker further explained that the current outcome appears to be some payback of a sort to the founder of the opposition NDC who has not failed to wash the party’s lapses in public.
“This is what you get when you insult and undermine your own party to its defeat and even keep insulting them in opposition claiming you are being disrespected. Call your wife Konadu to defend you,” Ade Coker added.
Ade Coker finally said, “But for the NDC and Voltarians, the NPP would have eliminated you a longtime ago, see where you have boxed yourself into.”
The former president has vowed to release a ‘bombshell’ about the killings when he gives a public lecture at the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (NKUST) in Kumasi in the coming days and take the opportunity to put issues emanating from the documentary into perspective.
