A supposed daughter of late former President Jerry John Rawlings, has been blocked from viewing his mortal remains.
The 52-year-old has claimed to be the biological daughter of Mr Rawlings.
She calls herself Abigail Rawlings
Mawutor and has since vowed to willingly subject herself to a paternity test if need be.
But she was blocked from viewing the body of Mr Rawlings which is lying in state at the Accra International Conference Centre.
Mr Rawlings passed away on Thursday, November 12, 2020 aged 73.
He is to be buried tomorrow, Wednesday, January 27, 2021.
And Abigail is claiming to be his first daughter.
She has claimed that she first revealed her identity to popular TV personality, Grace Omaboe otherwise known as Maame Donkono.
She said Maame Dokono gave her money to leave Ghana in 2003 for fear of being assassinated.
Speaking with the media, Abigail stated that “Maame Dokono knows about this. In 2003, I paid her a visit and told her about my story, but she told me if I don’t keep quiet about it I may die. So she gave me money and I left the country.”
She revealed that her mother met Mr Rawlings during his military training days.
According to her, when her mother confronted Rawlings of her pregnancy, he [Rawlings] asked her mother to keep it to herself for fear of being dropped out of school by his guardians.
She further mentioned some three doctors as her witnesses in addition to Maame Dokono.
