The Founder of Centre for Social Justice, Mr Sodzi Sodzi Tettey has described former President, Jerry John Rawlings as the fighter of social justice.

He said this in a short tribute when he joined other dignitaries to sign the book of condolence in honour of the late former President.

Mr Tetteh said that Mr Rawlings’ fight for democracy and his sense of patriotism were unparalled.

“Rest well, Your Excellency! And may the quest for social justice, the flourish of democracy, and the fire of patriotism lit by President Nkrumah, and massively reignited by your Excellency President Rawlings, inspire all patriots and progressive forces now and the times to come. Journey well!,”.

The government last Monday opened the book of condolence for high profile persons to pen their messages to J.J. Rawlings at the Accra International Conference Centre.

Among the people who eulogised the late President were Ambassadors, Clergy, Parliamentary and Presidential candidates, party faithful, and Mr Sodzi Sodzi-Tettey who is the Founder of Centre for Social Justice, a friend and a lover of the late former President’s ideologies.
