The former President seems to be upset with the ensuing conversation between his wife, Nana Konadu Agyeman Rawlings and one of his bitterest rivals, former President John Agyekum Kufuor.
The two have failed to see eye to eye on several issues and it worsened after spokesperson to the former President, Frank Agyekum sent a strong warning to Papa J as he is affectionately called to stop accusing his boss anytime he had the opportunity to be interviewed.
According to him, he was choked with the hypocrisy being exhibited of Chairman Rawlings anytime they met in public and as such did not want him to smile at him in such circumstances if he did not want to.

“He’s had enough of it. He[Kufuor] has a lot of respect globally and those false claims can destroy his image. There is no point pretending to laugh with him in public but inwardly you have issues against him.
“Mr Kufuor doesn’t pretend when he greets him in public. And so if he cannot maintain that cordial relationship with him, and is bent on always accusing him falsely, to impugn his integrity then we won’t accept that. If he has charges against him he should come out and make them, but the untruths held against Mr Kufuor is becoming too many”. he revealed
This could have informed his sullen mood as he and his wife sat by the former president who once served as secretary in his government and later run against him in the 1996 general elections on the ticket of the New Patriotic Party.
The actions of both former presidents have caused a great worry amongst Ghanaians whiles other took to social media to laugh over the issue.

It is quite interesting to note that President Rawlings only smiled and shared laughter with President Nana Akufo-Addo when it was time to socialise with the other dignitaries present.
President Rawlings has spoken highly of his former nemesis in recent times calling him a man of integrity and sound morals.
