They have taken our independence away from us. Ghana is fully reliant on the West for its foreign and national policies. We want our independence back now.

The context of having the British stay on to transition is what Busia or JB Danquah implied. Even today, we understand the dangers of unplanned pull out, example Afghanistan.

And what is that danger? Afghans simply went back to their ways before America's invasion. There was never any true plan for Afghan. Dont judge them by American standards because America never and will never intend Afghanistan, or any other country for that matter, to be like America.
You can see that in her belligerence towards China, Russia etc.
America is in every continent sponsoring coups to obtain resources. Do your research or at least google and you will see that even Americans regard their country as a bully and terrorist state.
British wasn't helping Ghana. They were pillaging our resources just as they are doing now and just as France has done until recently that Burkina etal decided to kick them out

Left to them alone, we will still be under the British with a seemingly independence and the King or Queen as our head of state. These people love to play the second fiddle.

You are obviously misinformed.
Ghana adopted similar constitutional arrangement at independence. However, Nkrumah, true to the fears of the opposition, dismantled that arrangement by chasing away opponents when he introduced the PDA Act. In the end, he did away with the constitution and eventually introduced a one party state. The 1969 constitution was just to restore the arrangement at independence.

@Johnny........ Every group that was formed prior to independence was primarily concerned with promoting the primacy of their petty politico-ethnic interests. A unitary state was furtherest from their convictions. Nkrumah was the flame that set off that fire cracker of an idea called the REPUBLIC; a diverse sprinkling of people decidedly uniting under one banner to become a nation. He was the GREAT UNIFYING FORCE. Danquah's maxim was Independence in the SHORTEST POSSIBLE time; he never believed in a Republic nor was he interested in independence. He had a far more insidious and self-seeking agenda, decidedly CLANNISH, not unlike that captured in the odious AGYA PA DEƐ document and reminiscent of the peculiar management style of the current president. We were going NOWHERE FAST till Nkrumah broke onto the scene. JB never forgave Nkrumah for snatching "the grand prize" from him. Nor did his cousin Busia. All parties antecedent to the NPP are all veiled wolves which have pursued the same destructive ideology of never allowing Nkrumah's Ghana, their nemesis, from ever making any progress, not only to spite him but more importantly, to reap where they have never sown by auctioning it for private profit every chance they get.

First of all the British deserve all the folks who go there to seek greener pastures. The quest for empire raped a third of the world of their destinies and it is only fair that the world returns to the storehouse of their bona fide resources to reclaim it. Nkrumah proved eloquently and beyond reasonable doubt in 6½ years that we were more than capable of taking care of our own business. Europe would collapse in a heap if they did not have the cheap resources they fraudulently extract from us by way of uncle Tom presidents like this current one to prop up their deceptive "developed "status". The cruel irony is that it is people like you and your ancestors, stooges and patsies for the white jackboot, who have made sure at every turn that our forward march as a republic was always thwarted. You and your forbears continue to sell us out for a bowl of KOKO. Naniema kadan kadan...

We don't have a country called gold Coast nor Ghana.
It was through the European that we came together as one people with different identity and culture.
It will be extremely difficult for us to buried our differences and move together as a nation.
The birth of our independence started on a tribal line and so shall it be.
Even on a regional levels there is still a tribal and ethnic war and the people in this smaller places don't see each others to be one and for that the country cannot be one.
To move forward in my opinion we have to do away we our political system, give the power to the chiefs to rule and affects changes, have constitution that best suit ethics and tribes.

In any case if Dr Busia would raise an issue about "no agreed constitution" before independence, what's so wrong about that? They were very much aware that Nkrumah hated dissent and that is what he ended up being - a dictator in one-party state.

Let's be real and stop being hypocrite. Nkrumah couldn't develop Ghana after Ghana gained independent. First country to gained independent in sub shara but our development was very bad compare to many countries like Kenya, South Africa, Zimbabwe not to talk about the Northern Africans. Nkrumah's CPP were even against him. Ghanaians are so hypocrite and not speaking the truth. Where are the CPP members? Cpp don't even get 3 percent of the National votes in Ghana but yet you talked about Nkrumah's legacy. First president who elected in America is not the best president ever in America. Nkrumah's ideology of building Ghana was very bad. It doesn't mean Nkrumah gained independent and became First president in Ghana means he the best president in Ghana. No, that is absolutely wrong. Nkrumah could have done better in Ghana.

Stupid Africans. We always fight each other instead of unity. Yes others have different opinions from Nkrumah but it does not mean we are enemies. The real enemies are the people who enslaved us for over 500yrs and stole all our resources and are now just apologizing without returning our stolen boots. Our enemies are those who financed all the coups in Africa. We are our own enemies, one tribe thinks they are above all others. That's what the West uses to divide us and rule us. Stupid Africans.France steals $5 trillions from Africa every year then turns around and say Africans are poor. If Africans are poor why are French still in Africa? Are they our parents?? Rubbish!!!

That’s true! Nkrumah’ destroyed the Destiny of Ghana. He undermined the very people who brought him to Ghana and broke away from the UGCC to form the CPP Party. You normally don’t have to Divide your front to seek for Independence. He was power drunk. My uncle, an evangelist, had a vision about the 1966 coup and told one of his Ministers to inform Nkrumah that he wanted to go and pray with him. Nkrumah ordered his security men to go after him and he was arrested and sent straight to Nsawam Prison without trial or questioning. Nkrumah was overthrown 6 months later and my Uncle gained his freedom. His story from the Prison was Horrible and…

Nkrumah was a dictator and bastard who used all the resources of our country to indoctrinate and inculcate stupid ideals of Nkrumahism into stupid illiterates heads. We were there and saw it. What is happening is what he wanted to achieve. Propaganda machinery that will live for very long. He is the messiah, he never dies, he is God, he created the ghanaian. He is the only one who has ghanaian blood in him. All his political opponents hate Ghana. Only he loves Ghana. A dictator who adopted communist tactics to enslave his people; threw bombs and caused mayem and used as pretend to arrest and detained his opponents. Discredited the very people who gave him his life and imprisoned them. When he was in prison, Gbedrmah stood tall to help him win election and became president. Then later power drunk Nkrumah chased him away to exile to Togo.

The big six were the six members of the Convention Peoples' Party (CPP), who stood on the podium at the Polo Grounds where the body of Kwame Nkrumah now rests, and together with him declared Ghana's independence.
The name Gold Coast to Ghana at a minute past 12:00 p.m. on 6th March, 1957 by Kwame Nkrumah, Komla Abeli Gbedema, Archie Casley-Hayford, Kojo Botsio, N.A Welbeck and Krobo Edusei.
Thus the founders of Ghana are Kwame Nkrumah, Komla Agbeli Gbedema, Archie Casley-Hayford, Kojo Botsio, N.A. Welbeck and Krobo Edusei.
Members of the UP party were still in Britain on 6th March, 1957 protesting against the British granting Ghana independence.
No member of the UGCC was at the Polo Ground when the name Gold Coast was named Ghana.
So, from the above no member, I mean, no member of the UGCC is a founder of Ghana, but rather Subverters of Ghana's independence.
So 4th August has become the day Ghana was subverted.
All those who love Ghana with their heart must as from today call 4th August Ghana Subverters' Day.
Kofi Abrefa was head of a delegation to the Queen of England Queen Elizabeth to convince the British from granting the Gold Coast independence.
The words of the delegation were :Why are you in haste to wash our hands off us.
Your experiment is not over.
Land of our birth we pledge to thee,
Our love and toil in the years to be,
As we are grown to take our place
As men and women with our race.

Land of our birth, our faith, our pride,
For whose dear sake our fathers died,
Oh Motherland we pledge to thee,
Head, heart and hands in the years to be.
Kwame Nkrumah, I Speak of Freedom,pp.106-107
Let those who claim that UGCC members founded Ghana tell the whole world about their activities on the day the Gold Coast was named Ghana.
Where they at that ceremony to rename the Gold Coast Ghana.
Where are their pictures and speeches about founding Ghana.
