Former Youth and Sports Minister and Member of Parliament for Ningo-Prampram, ET Mensah has said that the bond between Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo and Jerry John Rawlings grew stronger because the president respected Rawlings.

Before Rawlings’ death, he built a better bond with the PNP leader over the neglect of the party he formed, the NDC.

Most people have questioned the friendship that existed between the two who belonged to different political divisions.

But speaking in an interview with Accra-based Adom FM supervised by MyNewsGh.com, ET Mensah indicated that Jerry John Rawlings reached out to Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo because the president listens to his advice.

According to him, President Akufo-Addo also accorded Rawlings the necessary respect considering the fact that he was the founder of the Fourth Republic and the mastermind behind Ghana’s democratic pillars.

“I was not surprised by their relationship. Everybody knows something good and for Rawlings if he advises you and you listen he likes you. Nana Addo also recognized that he is the founder of the fourth republic. All the things we have done with her since the transition to the district assembly were geared toward building a democracy that would stand the test of time and he was in the driver’s seat. “
