Why Jerry Rawlings offspring with Nana Konadu Agyemang-Rawlings must reach out to those claiming to be their siblings

Why Jerry Rawlings offspring with Nana Konadu Agyemang-Rawlings must reach out to those claiming to be their siblings
28.01.2021 LISTEN

Precisely because of the values their very privileged family, represent, symbolically, in Ghana's political world, it would be wise for Hon. Zanetor Rawlings (who is her late father's torchbearer), to invite all the individuals, who have made known, to the world, claims of being the offspring, of her late father, to meet with her, and her siblings, and their widowed mother, former First Lady, Mrs. Nana Konadu Agyemang-Rawlings.

Dispassionate discussions, for DNA tests (to establish the truth or otherwise of those blood-tie-claims), can then be held, in private, away from the glare of intrusive media platforms. It will be a noble gesture, worthy of their great father, to enable them to bring closure, to that emotionally painful matter - and enable them make a new beginning as a united family clan.

Throughout his life, their late father fought for fairness in society. It really is vital, therefore, that all who indeed have former President Rawlings' blood, coursing through their veins, are welcomed, by his four known official children, Zanetor, Yaa Asantewaa, Amina and Kimathi, and finally allowed, by them, and their dear mother, Nana Konadu Agyemang-Rawlings, to formally become part of the J. J. Rawlings family clan. May their great father's soul rest in peace. Cool.
