The National Democratic Congress (NDC) is taking bold steps to immortalise its founder, the late former President Jerry John Rawlings, with sweeping proposals aimed at embedding his legacy into the party\u2019s institutional identity.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

At the 46th anniversary of the June 4 uprising, held at Agormanya Lasi Park in the Eastern Region, NDC National Chairman Johnson Asiedu Nketiah announced that the party\u2019s Functional Executive Committee (FEC) has approved a series of proposals\u2014pending ratification by the National Executive Committee (NEC)\u2014to honour Rawlings\u2019 towering influence.<\/p>\n

Top among these is the renaming of the party\u2019s national headquarters to\u00a0\u201cJerry Rawlings House.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cParty headquarters across the world are named after their founders. Ghana cannot be an exception. We will begin the process to rename our national headquarters as Rawlings House,\u201d Asiedu Nketiah declared to thunderous applause.<\/p>\n

He also revealed plans to amend the party\u2019s constitution to designate June 22, Rawlings\u2019 birthday, as a significant party day. Additionally, the entire month of June is proposed to be commemorated annually as\u00a0\u201cNDC Month.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Asiedu Nketiah did not hold back in expressing dissatisfaction with the current state of Revolutionary Square, located opposite the Jubilee House.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cPlease establish a planning committee to advise on how we can get Revolutionary Square back to its original status. If we need to contact the Museums and Monuments Board, it must be done.<\/p>\n

\n

“It doesn\u2019t just represent a monument\u2014it teaches our youth a lesson,\u201d he charged.<\/p>\n

The June 4 uprising, led by then Flight Lieutenant Rawlings in 1979, remains a cornerstone of the NDC\u2019s political heritage, symbolising the values of accountability, discipline, and revolutionary change.<\/p>\n

The proposed reforms are seen as a major attempt by the party to institutionalise this legacy for future generations.<\/p>\n
