Contrary to claims that the statesman was ruthless, the actor revealed that President Rawlings had a magnetic personality that attracted people to him naturally.

According to the Actor Fred Amugi, he had worked with the late President on several occasions and he had an astute personality.
“He ensures that everybody around him was very comfortable. I worked with him on several occasions, I was in charge of the store at the State House, and during Christmas, he gave everybody presents to serve visitors at their homes.” He shared
