Former President of Ghana, Jerry John Rawlings has described the First Vice Chair of his party, the NDC, Anita De-Sosoo, as a ‘crook’.
Jerry John Rawlings in an address in a viral video described an act by Anita De-Sosoo at the 39th anniversary of the uprising of June 4 which was held at the Madina Social Welfare School Park, where she knelt and begged the founder of the party to ‘forgive’ members of the NDC for their ‘sins’ as an act of hypocrisy by a crook.
He said, “…she is a crook. She’s lucky I don’t talk about her. What she did was pre-planned. Yeah, the woman on the stage, June 4, when she went on her knees. How can a woman come on her knees pleading for forgiveness for the party instead of accepting it graciously and letting it go.”
Jerry John Rawlings recalled how Anita De-Sosoo used a similar tactic some years ago to maneuver her way into winning an election to become the NDC’s Women’s organizer.
He recounts how Anita De-Sosoo knelt before his wife [Nana Konadu Agyeman-Rawlings], grabbed her feet and touted “my mother, my mother, oh this and that and that…” in a move that would later see her win an election as a women’s organizer in the party.
Anita began her political career as a serial caller and rose through the ranks as a ward women’s organiser, a constituency women’s organiser, a former national deputy propaganda secretary.
She holds a Bachelors’ degree in Business Administration from the Ghana Institute of Public Administration (GIMPA).
