Victor Smith; a victim of illusory energy must know J.J Rawlings is great by deeds, not by birth

Flt Lt. Jerry John Rawlings, Former President of Ghana Flt Lt. Jerry John Rawlings, Former President of Ghana

O Victor Smith! I ordain for you to have concordance in your heart, unanimity in your mind and freedom from hatred, the fragrance of flowers spreads only in the direction of the wind but the goodness of a person spreads in all directions.

This write-up is the result of Victor Smith’s interview with Ekourba Gyasi on Atinka AM Drive on the 8th-January-2018 where he stated that, Mr. Rawlings does not listen to wise counsel, Although carefully presented, it is fiction and highly misleading, so much so that I thought of sharing my thoughts as a fellow of Ghana Institute of Social Democracy-[NDC Ideological School] where I have the privilege to study about Mr.Rawlings and wife. I do not have any issue with its political motivation; my outrage is the way it belittled the Former President character and integrity.

No deliberation made by a single person will be successful; the nature of work which a sovereign has to do is to be inferred from the consideration of both the visible and invisible causes. The clearance of doubts as to whatever is susceptible of two opinions, and the inference of the whole when only a part is seen is possible of decision only by our creator, Hence a President shall sit at deliberation with persons of wide intellect and Mr. Rawlings stood tall and despise none, but hear the opinions of all as a wise man shall make use of even a child’s sensible utterance.

Victor Smith must strive to move away from untruth towards truth and avoid unpleasant arguments on radio because words of a powerful orator are in vain if he is hazy about the task at hand. Of what use is the spoken after everything is put in black and white word? Use your words, only where they are honored for Unity in the National Democratic Congress for Victory 2020.

The actions of people with uncontrolled minds and illusory senses are as wasting time bathing an elephant the symbol of the New Patriotic Party [NPP] therefore I want to appeal to Mr.Rawlings to triumph over Victor’s imaginary statements and not fall prey to it because Honey is in the tongue of bad people, but their heart is full of poison.

Even the weak can succeed if they unite; if you tie blades of grass together to form a rope they can tether an elephant in rut. Let Unite for NDC Victory 2020…..
