Stephen Kwaku Asare, an influencer in social media, reprimanded former president Rawlings on his recent comment that "times are tough" in Ghana.
Yesterday, MyNewsGh.com reported that former President Jerry John Rawlings had admitted for the first time that the situation was difficult in Ghana and that, in the current context, nothing seems to work.
Mr. Rawlings pointed out that the difficult situation was so serious that it had had a negative impact on those attending even a funeral. He said that at such times, Ghanaians should support each other.
"We all know how difficult the situation is in Ghana right now. The times are really hard and at critical moments such as these funerals, the expenses incurred by the family are not a joke. Things are not going too well for a lot of people. I plead with you all. The way things are, we have no choice but to help each other. I wish I could support, "he said.
According to him, things are not going very well for many people in the country, including himself; indicating that he wished he could do more to support the bereaved family but "it is not easy" for him.
But Professor Azar thinks that Rawlings must explain what he means by "difficulties" because the state provides it fully.
"The former head of state, Jerry Rawlings, said that he was facing difficulties. How can that be when the state provides it all and does it for thirty years or so? ", Did he declare.
"He has the right to free housing, free cars, free staff free of charge, free allowances, free trips abroad, free pensions and so on. What exactly are the difficulties? He must educate us. "
At the same time, the president of IMANI Africa added his voice to the "discourse on difficulties".
"Did Rawlings really say that? Well, we are grateful for the little mercies and are also the guardian and guardian of your neighbor. We are living in difficult times, but it will be fine.
