It’s a sad event that Rawlings is gone. There are many who will grieve his loss. But there are others too who are celebrating. And that’s fine. Because the very essence of heroes requires that they have flaws.

Landmark in Africa! President Jerry John Rawlings.

May the good Lord preserve you, Sir.
