A staunch supporter of Flt. Lt. Jerry John Rawlings has underscored his love for the former president with a vow to defend the Rawlingses even at the peril of his life.<\/p>\n
Mr. Raphael Cubagee, the leader of the Real Democratic People\u2019s Party (RDPP), a breakaway group from the ruling NDC, said he trusted, believed and adored the ideologies and personality of the former president to the extent that if Mr Rawlings asked him to take a poisonous substance like DDT, supposedly, to cure an illness, he would willingly do that.<\/p>\n
The man who described Mr Rawlings as \u201cmy mentor in the whole world\u201d, was sharing his thoughts on Adom FM, Monday on the seeming wrangling in the NDC \u2013 between the camp of President John Evans Atta Mills and that of former First Lady, Nana Konadu Agyeman-Rawlings.<\/p>\n
The formation of Mr. Cubagee\u2019s RDPP party was said to have been necessitated by the perceived marginalization of individuals close to Mr. Rawlings, by members of President Mills\u2019 government. The party which is based in the Brong Ahafo Region has the camel as its symbol, and its motto, \u201cTogether we build, together we enjoy.\u201d<\/p>\n
Mr Cubagee condemned people he said were \u201csmall boys\u201d within the party whom he claimed were casting aspersions at Mr Rawlings. The Rawlings admirer enumerated numerous contributions he said the Rawlingses had made in the NDC and could not fathom why some latter-day appointees and followers would denigrate the party founder just because they oppose the former first family\u2019s candid opinions.<\/p>\n
The NDC party, he indicated, has been polarized by the two camps, adding that with the kind of acrimony between the two, it would be very difficult for the NDC to reconcile ahead of the 2012 general elections.<\/p>\n
Cubagee said the party is currently sitting on a time bomb, which he said would explode anytime soon, disintegrating the front of the NDC and that the fallouts would inure to the benefit of the RDPP.<\/p>\n
He said judging by how some people in the party are treating the Rawlings family, he would be excited to see Mrs Rawlings win the party\u2019s presidential election. He will not be bothered if she loses the national election.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
