In a statement issued in Accra on Friday, President Rawlings said:
“In advice or caution to the Libyan people, let us hope in your fight for your freedom you will not end up trading one form of freedom for another.
Amongst the nations coming to your rescue are the genuine believers of freedom, downright opportunists and crass mercenaries.
To Egypt, to the transitional military government you owe it a duty to your people not to betray the revolution. You have a duty and a responsibility to set in motion the quest for accountability, transparency and integrity in governance.
A peaceful revolution as we saw in Egypt must be protected and nurtured until it becomes a shining example of the creative energy of an empowered people.”
