General News of Tuesday, 5 June 2018Source: Graphic.com.ghCharge irresponsible drivers who cause accidents with manslaughter – RawlingsFormer President Jerry John RawlingsFormer President Jerry John Rawlings is angry over the growing indiscipline on the country’s roads leading to the loss of many lives through accidents. He has therefore suggested that drivers through whose action such irresponsible accidents occur must be charged with manslaughter in order to help make the country's roads safer. According to him, the so-called accidents in the country are not accidents and that such incidents occur as a result of the irresponsible behaviours of the drivers. Flt Lt Rawlings led a group of junior officers and men of the Ghana Armed Forces in an uprising against the then Supreme Military Council (SMC II) regime led by General F.W.K. Three months later, the Armed Forces Revolutionary Council (AFRC), led by Flt Lt Rawlings, handed over power to an elected government.
