That their certificateless Akufo Addo and his cohorts are still living inside bubbles full of their own manufactured historical lies. Thanks to Napo and Akufo Addo for reigniting this debate, thereby bringing to the forefront further and better truthful revelations.

You see, trying to obliterate the name of the legendary Osagyefo Dr Kwame Nkrumah is like kicking your feet against a rock. You'll only hurt your feet. It's an exercise in futility. No matter how you twist or turn it, fry or roast it, grill or saute it, toast or smoke it, the man simply never dies. Osagyefo Dr Kwame Nkrumah, Africa's greatest personality of the last millennium and its man of destiny has magnificently and menacingly resurrected in front of the OAU headquarters in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia where his statue beautifully adorns. The man's stature is simply incomparable to any of his peers. The man, described as a thinker doer, nationalist Internationalist and showboy is the only BIIIIIIIIG ONE. The man is indestructible and simply never dies!

So who has tried to obliterate the great Nkrumah? Do you really understand the word obliterate?
Some of you only come here and even confuse the ordinary man with big English you yourself don’t understand.

Facts are facts. Nkrumah led Ghana to independence that is not the same as he was the founder of Ghana. Think my friend.

Have you seen Busis's and JB Danquah's letters asking for independence not to be granted? Whe the going became tough, and the kitchen bcame hot, the rest of the so called "Big Six" betrayed Kwame Nkrumah, who alone was sentenced to jail. Even though this reward to JB and his buddies to enable them win the 1951 elections, they were trounced by the imprisoned Kwame Nkrumah. Nkrumah went on to become the leader of Government Business. The UGCC disintegrated and Kwame Nkrumah and his CPP were left STANDING TALL.

The UGCC big men didn't know what they were doing.
I'm saying so because the British didn't conquer or force the Gold Coast to become a colony.
Prior to the Bond of 1844,many of the Fanti chiefs agreed to trade with the European merchants.
The chiefs leased lands to the European merchants to put up trading posts along the shores.
Some chiefs even gave a time frame of 100 years to the British traders.
The Bond of 1844 is seen as the beginning of the colonial system in the Gold Coast.There is nowhere in the Bond that says the British paid for the Gold Coast or should administer our shores forever.
The Bond of 1844 was signed on the 6th March and for the same reason and significance our independence was declared on the 6th March to end the circle of colonisation.
My mother,Christina Conduah told me the story of how Kwame Nkrumah took advantage of the contents in the Bond of 1844 of which UGCC ignored.
Nana Addo reference to 1897 Aborigines right has no bearing to the success of 6th March Independence.It's so petty our president doesn't know the origin of Gold Coast Independence.Tnx.

Massa when they are talking about sensible matters don't bring that twerp Akufo Addo in the equation at all. He will say Nii Lante Vanderpuye instead of Nii Lante Bannerman. The fool will still say Mahama instead of Bawuliar. Until Kojo Oppong Nkrumah calls a press conference to tell us that the idiot was taken out of context. Akufo Monkey Addo is a moron Walahi

Gold Coast/Ghana was already in existence even before Nkrumah was born. Perhaps Kwame Nkrumah founded Mali, Guinea and Egypt where he wasted our money.

Pettiness is swallowing Ghana. Today's issues, the economy, bread and butter, shelter, unemployment, corruption etc. What about them?

I personally do not understand why there is a fuss on this somebody states an opinion and others also have their beliefs are we saying the fellow has no right based on the information he has?Then Ghanaians who are against LGBTQ equally have no right to talk down the beliefs of others cos it tantamount to the imposition of others beliefs on the whole country.
We have others who do not believe in the existence of Gods,Others do believe,others say There was christ,others say Islam Hindus etc so..must we all think alike Article 21(1)(a)(b) is a fundamental human right please.
Article 21 (1) All persons shall have the right to- (a) freedom of speech and expression, which shall include freedom of the press and other media;
(b) freedom of thought, conscience and belief, which shall include academic freedom;
(c) freedom to practise any religion and to manifest such practice;

What is worrying Akuffo Addo. Today we are saying "Akuffo Addo's government". Yesterday it was"Mahama's government". Why has Akuffo Addo not challenged this? Nana Kweku Addo Dankwa Akuffo Addo should just cease worrying us over these things. Ghanaians are suffering. We are talking about the cost of a liter of petrol, transportation cost, rent, peanut salaries etc and Nana Addo is talking about the Independence Nkrumah won for Ghana over sixty years ago. What kind of president is this.
