J.J. Rawlings is one of Ghana's best President!

[@anstaranstar]

Rose its so insulting to us in GHANA when outsiders make a hero out of this wicked man. A murderer a thief You would not adore in your own country. Rawlings was infact.not A GHANIAN.HR WAS A FREAKY TOG OLESE WHO LIED HIS WAY INTO THE GHANA ARMED FORCES. ASK ANY.OF THE RRLAYIVES OF THE INNOCENT PEOPLE HE.KILLED.IF THEY AGREE WITH YOU

[@peterachina3887]

Great African Woman. I like how she prides herself in African Identity and Fashion. Peace and Love to You Big Sister !!

[@dorothydanso9820]

It is time for Ghanaians, especially we women, to shower love upon this great Lady who has done so much for Ghanaian womanhood. Let us not wait till she dies. Maybe I should start but where? I am not in Ghana. We love you First Lady Agyeman Rawlings.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@peterachina3887]

@@dorothydanso9820 Big Up to you for your Sincere Compliments. She never altered the Nubian ( African) Identity and best of all her Man loved her Africaness !!

[@employaccount7724]

Veteran Journalist Shaka . Hope you are still strong

[@DavidLarbi-n3h]

Nana Konadu Agyeman-Rawlings would have been an NDC President of Ghana if she had bidded her time.

[@gyamfia119]

Nana Konadu Rawlings, best first Lady and well dressed dressed first lady of ghana

[@mwendapoleee]

Mrs Rawling take heart may the Lord give you strength to mourn your husband! RIP

[@cafri2077]

This woman still has the qualities of becoming Ghana President. Mills is known as asomdwe hene but he disappointed Rawlings for not appointing Nana as his vice. He distorted the hardworking and sacrificial performances this lady put up for Ghana. No First Lady has worked like Nana!

[@odilemarthemengue646]

A great lady... May God bless her at such a sorrowful moment!!

[@dorothydanso9820]

I see Nana Konadu Agyeman Rawlings in the same light as Hillary Clinton. Nana is the best First Lady in Ghanaian history. It is time the country paid her her dues.

[@bsbshzhsgshsuavasv8899]

Out of sight

[@angeldzenyo4317]

Great interview I love it

[@mercyfrost9869]

Hello Mr.shaka.Sally..you look infact Ghanian Man.with the rich kente cloth shirt.

[@salimampofo]

Thanks to President Rawlings that,ever since Ghana's constitution was rewritten, Ghanaians have accepted democracy as a principle of good governance under freedom .

[@anstaranstar]

She is fata life. Never mentioned Fact of her husband's wickedness. Theft of state asserts. Mass.murderings

[@TommyWilson-b6c]

the is a suggestion the spelling of the Zulu chief's name is TSHAKA.

[@DavidLarbi-n3h]

Nana's suggestion of a fusion of democratic governance and the Ghanaian cultural values is mercurial. But like I said she should have stayed in NDC and bidded her time to become President of Ghana, so could have implemented her mercurial suggestion.

[@yvonnede-souza4809]

The best leaders we ever had in Ghana. The market prices were in order.

[@anniedorothyossei2920]

Bless you

[@sandramoore5924]

Lovely and sincere interview. We need a woman President NOW after President Nana Akuffo- Addo. Nana stay strong .

[@amegborgodwin4622]
