Former President John Agyekum Kufuor has stated that only God can decide who goes to Heaven and not human beings.
His comment comes after Mr Rawlings’ outburst during a meeting with chiefs and elders from Mepe in the Volta Region last week where he described former President Kufuor as ‘evil’ and former President John Dramani Mahama as a ‘rogue’ for destroying the country.
Mr Rawlings stated that he will flog the duo if he sees them in heaven.
Though the former military leader has apologised to the two former Presidents, Mr Kufuor in a statement said, “As to Heaven, it is only God who decides who goes there or not.”
The statement added, ‘He has never divested any state property to himself or his family members’.

Kufuor replies Rawlings
The attention of former President John Agyekum Kufuor has been drawn to the publication of a very damning and unpalatable diatribe about him by former President Jerry John Rawlings and his (Rawlings’) subsequent withdrawal and apology for same in the last few days.
However, despite that President Kufuor accepts the apology, he wishes to make it clear that:
- He has never divested any state property to himself or his family members.
- All the divestiture of state properties and enterprises that took place during his tenure in office was done legally and according to laid-down procedures, rules, and regulations, and to the utmost benefit of the people of Ghana.
- President Kufuor never tried to unduly influence the promotion or appointment into the security services, more so, based on tribe. Emphatically, in his government policies, he never used tribalism in serving the regions and tribes of Ghana.
- As to Heaven, it is only God who decides who goes there or not.
- Finally, as to the creation of the medal the Order of the Black Star and Eagles of Ghana, President Kufuor believes that it is the prerogative of the president of the state to make such a creation and he as such did so as the exclusive title of presidents when they attain that unique office. President Nkrumah had created all the others upon Ghana attaining independence.
