J.J. Rawlings lies in glory!

Ghana is in mourning. The reason is not far-fetched. Large numbers of Ghanaians are filing past the coffin of the former president, Jerry Rawlings, ahead of his funeral tomorrow. The open casket is surrounded by flowers, candles and a glass screen at Accra’s international conference centre.

Mourners are wearing face masks and are socially distanced, in line with the covid-19 restrictions.

Mr. Rawlings was 73 years when he took his bow in November from an undisclosed ailment suspected to be heart related.

His burial was delayed, in part, because of disagreement between Ghana’s current political leaders.

During two decades in public life, he twice led military take-overs, before later returning the country to multi-party politics and winning elections.
