    We GHANAIANS did not defend our BELOVED PRESIDENT OSAGEFO DR KWAME NKRUMAH . I personally I was a child in primary school but still I was aware of the coup . I was in class 5 at GOVERNMENT SCHOOL AT LIBERTY AVENUE ADABRAKA I saw the marching in the street of Liberty Avenue. At that time we at that age we don't know what is ahead of us . I went to school on KWAME NKRUMAH'S FREE EDUCATION . The overthrow of OUR BELOVED PRESIDENT OSAGEFO DR KWAME NKRUMAH was a big blow to not,GHANA 🇬🇭 as well as the whole of AFRICA.
    MAY HE REST IN PEACE. HE IS MY FAVORITE PRESIDENT OSAGEFO DR KWAME NKRUMAH.

Without mincing words, Akufo Addo and his bunch of Thieving bloodsuckers uncle, father etc were the very bribe taking traitors the USA govt lured to screw us. They hated Nkrumah, simply because he was smarter, patriotic, savvy and above believed in the principle of egalitarianism as opposed to their self inflated ego of entitlement. Anyway, thanks ever so much for rekindling the works of the Legend called Nkrumah.

People say Nkrumah wanted to unite Africa as if he had a magic wand. Talk is cheap otherwise, Nyerere, Kaunda, Mugabe and the other pan- Africans would have carried out the dream of a united Africa.

    Kwame was indeed a great revolutionary leader but a poor administrator of the nations resources and destiny.
    A lot of our history does not show that the man turned the country into a one party state and was set to entrench himself as life president of Ghana.
    The ideology of Pan Africanism was dead in arrival because almost all so called founding fathers in East and west Africa countries set up themselves as life presidents and did atrocious things. Gabon, Togo, Ghana Cameroon, see the mugabes of our time. Simply put we moved from white masters to black masters.
    Africa was never and will most likely never be democratic. We were used to monarchies just like the middle east. We need to find our own path as a people and forget about this western democracy

      "You can't over take something by being the very thing."
      Especially when the ones who own it are your oppressor and competitor. Remember Nkrumah mission was to make Africa a market force and further the super power, therefore it is anti any super power, unfortunately still our minds and thinking is captured and we are still playing by the masters rule.

      The problem was that Ghanaians did not have the patience to understand his mission and what he was doing. Moreover, the Ashanti empire and the Northerners as well never liked him being the president for fear of them losing their powers over their territory, so they demanded Ghana be divided into states. They did many things to take him down, distracting numerous projects and missions he was undertaking for the country's development. He did all those things to control their attacks and complete the projects and Africa Unity within the shortest time. But it was a crying shame that they achieved that when he was out of the country.

"...the battle has ended", "GH is free forever", etc. I think he was rather impatient. The people did not see themselves as Ghanaians, it was their tribe first (which is still the case). He got preoccupied with African Unity, even though the timing was not quite right. At that time at the world stage, there was ideology battles going on (btn commun-ism and capita-lism; which was why he even travelled that day).

    Nkrumah’s misplaced priorities are arrogance engineered his ultimate downfall.
    Ghana the first subsaharan Africa country to gain independence was not intended to be an island of independent country in black Africa, it was the colonial masters pilot program to see how the black man would manage his own affairs.
    But unfortunately the first dictator and egotistical post colonial president Nkrumah failed to see that.
    Instead of Nkrumah upon ghana’s independence simply displaying prudent management of limited resources together with high level negotiations aimed to convince the colonial masters to free the rest of Africa.
    Nkrumah rather and arrogantly decided to use the limited resources of his fledgling newly independent country without basic infrastructures to finance an unwarranted war against the well entrenched colonial masters for total liberation of Africa.
    In the end apart from the tragic loss of lives in the difficult and convoluted war path strategy Nkrumah adopted, he also squandered resources he could use to build highways and other infrastructures across ghana in the war.
    Instead of Nkrumah using the army of his newly independent country of six million people and without basic infrastructures to help start a revolution in roads and highways construction across ghana, Nkrumah rather deployed them in Congo to fight.
    Ironically the soldiers Nkrumah deployed in Congo to fight returned to ghana to overthrow his dictatorial government.
    Had Nkrumah engaged the soldiers at home to help execute national and patriotic duty of building infrastructures in their newly independent country, they would not have had the time and inclination to plan to topple his government.
    And Nkrumah would have had the same political stability lee kuan yew of Singapore had to make his dream of a modern and civilized Singapore a reality.
    A word to the wise is enough.

      It's been established that he made several mistakes... He became more respected in retrospect than while in active duty. Thank you for your feedback, I appreciate you. 💙❤️💙🙏🙏

      How has Ghana enjoyed the Western world's liberal agenda since they destroyed the great Kwame Nkrumah?
      African slave mentality!!!

      The fragmentation of Africa require a unity that would harness resources for an independent development, something a visionary saw. Your thought lined with the ugcc, " let stay in our small place and forget the big picture ". That thought breed the hatred in Tribal and egoistic disloyalty to Nkrumah dream of an African nation. To date, no western prescription has resulted in us having even common decent standards of living above 30% percent in all of Africa. So who is Right? The visionary or the short sighted marginalized commentator?

      They said Jesus was arrogant, I'm not surprised but I'm shocked to learned that after all the time for a postmortem our people are still not learning meaning of true self governance, how to achieve it and what it takes to achieve. WESTERN DEMOCRACY IS NOT THE ROUTE TO AFRICAN DEVELOPMENT, IT IS A MEANS BY WHICH EMPERIALIST MAINTAINS CONTACT AND CONTROL OF STOOGES ALEVATED TO THE STATUS OF LEADERSHIP TO SERVE THE MASTER'S INTEREST. remember the meeting in Germany to divide and share? It resurface when China took interest in developing pacts with African nations. He was reminded that YOUR STATUS IS HERE WITH US AND YOU MUST PLAY BY THE BOOK, MR CHINA, THE GAME IS EXPLOITATION AND NOT ALEVATION.

      That's a uninformed, stupid as well as an arrogant comment. Incompetent even. You sound like all the other false propagandists that are attempting to prolong some character assassination of Kwame Nkrumah to prevent the continuation of the wider priority of continental unification.
      Primary understanding of President Nkrumah and the political objective of Pan-Africanism can only be correctly interpreted through the honest study of his writings. Not through the enemies of a liberated, independent Afrikan continent. You can never win by merely parroting western sentiments.
