  The White man and woman CAME TO AFRICA TO SCAM US, TO STEAL, TO DEPLETE OUR RESOURCES-MINERALS-HENCE GOLD COAST and THE SLAVE TRADE.
  The Whites or England left Ghana with NO EDUCATION FOR OUR MASSES AND MASSES OF OUR PEOPLE. DR Kwame Nkrumah had NO CHOICE but to start building schools and universities, teacher training colleges etc etc to help increase the level of education of our people to form the human resource base for both national economic and social development.
  Dr Kwame Nkrumah also started building factories and Akosombo Dam for our self sufficiency and development-energy needs sustainability.
  To err is human but Dr Kwame Nkrumah saw that we BLACK PEOPLE NEED TO HELP EACH OTHER. As you can see from USA-TRUMP POLICY-AMERICA FIRST. TRUMP has even abandoned NATO-Europe to PAY for themselves. TRUMP has STOPPED USAID etc etc. Africa was in a unique situation. Dr Kwame Nkrumah helped Sekou Toure of Guinea when Guinea refused to kowtow to France imperialist demands. AFRICA MUST UNITE-BOB MARLEY. Dr Nkrumah helped Zimbabwe-Mugabe etc to come and educate themselves in Ghana. But now-Ghana people are also in Zambia, Botswana, South Africa, Egypt, Morrocco, Algeria etc etc. You see-Africa is our DESTINY and HOMELAND. President Kuffour when he came to power- WENT TO NIGERIA TO BEG, President Obasanjo of Nigeria gave Ghana 500 peugeot cars for the Ghana police use-free of charge, President Obasanjo gave Ghana FREE CRUDE OIL-now you see the irony of what Dr Kwame Nkrumah did for Guinea-Nigeria also did it to Ghana in our hour of NEED. NOBODY IS PERFECT.
  I do not want to go on and on. STUPID Dr K A Busia BOOTED OUT NIGERIANS FROM Ghana in 1971 SHORTSIGHTEDLY- Nigeria also booted out 3 million Ghanaians in 1981-IS IT NOT REVENGE? LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOUR AS YOURSELF- BECAUSE YOU DO NOT KNOW TOMORROW- NIGERIA IS RICH NOW.

  But where are we now? Ghana is a FAILED STATE. That was why in 2024 Ghana went to the IMF and the World Bank Cup in hand to beg for a bailout. What did we receive in return for betraying our country. I ask you will the white man and woman accept you black monkey money to betray their country? The ANSWER IS OBVIOUS-NO. We BLACKS people are unpatriotic and very selfish. The WHITEMAN see us as the followers of their STUPID culture. Look at China and India, they stick to their culture and language in their schools and education system and they have made it. African children are dying in their thousands in the Mediterranean sea. Bye bye you BLACK PEOPLE ARE THEIR OWN DOWNFALL-BLACKS HATE EACH OTHER. The white man or woman will NEVER betray thair COUNTRIES to you the BLACK MONEY. But we took their money and AFRICAN CHILDREN ARE DYING IN THEIT THOUSANDS IN THE MEDITERRENEAN SEA TO REACH EUROPE-ITALY AND SPAIN

  Dr Kwame Nkrumah also did so much for the north as well interms of education:
  Ghana College, Tamale, Government secondary school, Tamale, Bawku, Yendi, Lawra, Wa, Nalerigu Damongo secondary schools etc.. You are right Kwame Nkrumah was a visionary leader. He did all this in less than 9years.
  What a big loss he has been to the nation!!! His compulsory policy of education for all children gave some of us especially from the north the opportunity to go to school. Otherwise my father had no clue about education and didn’t see the need for his children to go to school.
  
  May GOD ALMIGHTY give him wisdom , anchor and victory to be able to do this again with sustained efforts.
  Don't forget Acherensua Secondary School (Achisco) which was the only secondary school in Ahafo until 1970 when Busia converted Hwidiem and Mim Training Colleges to secondary schools. And other schools like Yaa Asantewah Secondary School, Konongo Odumasi Secondary School, and many more. You can easily identify the schools by the similar buildings, which were constructed under the Education Trust Fund. Nkrumah was selfless, and a visioneer. Up to the present, nobody has come out to accuse him of corruption or kalabule. He left no mansion or assets. Akuffo Addo family and the Akyem traitors are thieves, and with fake British vocal accents.
  How can foreign agents who helped overthrow the greatest African leader of our time ever be the source of inspiration? Yet today, some of them are celebrated, their names carved into our national story as though they were patriots.
  
  Let us speak plainly: one of these so-called heroes destroyed the foundations of our industries, handing assets to his wife and cronies. Another, J. B. Danquah, betrayed the very cause of independence and sided with those who sought to keep Ghana shackled. And Emmanuel Kotoka, whose coup cut short our march toward true self-determination, is still paraded as though he were a liberator. These are not heroes. They are traitors.
  
  The tragedy is not only in what they did, but in how their legacies have been dressed up for the next generation. If the adults fool themselves, the children are watching — and they will see through the lies. You cannot build a nation on falsehood.
  
  This is why today, the NPP is reaping the fruits of the seeds it sowed. By glorifying betrayal, by distorting history, by venerating those who sold Ghana’s future to foreign hands, they have set themselves on a path where truth and justice catch up.
  
  History has only one verdict: those who sell their people for personal gain are never remembered as heroes, no matter how many statues are built in their name.

  Dr Kwame Nkrumah also did so much for the north as well interms of education:
  Ghana College, Tamale, Government secondary school, Tamale, Bawku, Yendi, Lawra, Wa, Nalerigu Damongo secondary schools etc.. You are right Kwame Nkrumah was a visionary leader. He did all this in less than 9years.
  What a big loss he has been to the nation!!! His compulsory policy of education for all children gave some of us especially from the north the opportunity to go to school. Otherwise my father had no clue about education and didn’t see the need for his children to go to school.
  
  May GOD ALMIGHTY give him wisdom , anchor and victory to be able to do this again with sustained efforts.
  Don't forget Acherensua Secondary School (Achisco) which was the only secondary school in Ahafo until 1970 when Busia converted Hwidiem and Mim Training Colleges to secondary schools. And other schools like Yaa Asantewah Secondary School, Konongo Odumasi Secondary School, and many more. You can easily identify the schools by the similar buildings, which were constructed under the Education Trust Fund. Nkrumah was selfless, and a visioneer. Up to the present, nobody has come out to accuse him of corruption or kalabule. He left no mansion or assets. Akuffo Addo family and the Akyem traitors are thieves, and with fake British vocal accents.
  How can foreign agents who helped overthrow the greatest African leader of our time ever be the source of inspiration? Yet today, some of them are celebrated, their names carved into our national story as though they were patriots.
  
  Let us speak plainly: one of these so-called heroes destroyed the foundations of our industries, handing assets to his wife and cronies. Another, J. B. Danquah, betrayed the very cause of independence and sided with those who sought to keep Ghana shackled. And Emmanuel Kotoka, whose coup cut short our march toward true self-determination, is still paraded as though he were a liberator. These are not heroes. They are traitors.
  
  The tragedy is not only in what they did, but in how their legacies have been dressed up for the next generation. If the adults fool themselves, the children are watching — and they will see through the lies. You cannot build a nation on falsehood.
  
  This is why today, the NPP is reaping the fruits of the seeds it sowed. By glorifying betrayal, by distorting history, by venerating those who sold Ghana’s future to foreign hands, they have set themselves on a path where truth and justice catch up.
  
  History has only one verdict: those who sell their people for personal gain are never remembered as heroes, no matter how many statues are built in their name.

  The legacies of Osagyefo Dr. Kwame Nkrumah included free education from Primary One to the Phd. level, adult education and the Workers' and Farmers' Brigades.
  Some of the best Ghanaian professionals and administrators are the products of free education and the Brigade.
  One of my late comrades who went to Guinea, Conakry with Osagyefo Dr. Kwame Nkrumah at the age of 20 said that he never came across any civilized and democratic person like Kwame Nkrumah, who was a good listener and was ready to listen to statements and suggestions from members of the Young Pioneers.
  At 21 he came briefly to Ghana and whiles he got to Niger, Nimey he was arrested for plotting to overthrow the National Liberation Council. Lt. General ordered Majors Avevor and Bokloe to tortur him for information about Osagyefo in Conakry.
  That torture caused Lt. General Emmanuel Kotoka dearly, together with the two hatchetmen Avevor and Bokloe.

  *Yaba, do not be afraid". This simple but deep phrase would make you tear up if you contextualize the circumstances of the period. Indeed, Nkrumaists, pan-Africanists and progressives both in Ghana and the world over would not be afraid - of reactionary forces who are always shaken and overburdened by the consistent global eulogizing of the significance and legacy of Nkrumah. Yes, indeed, Nkrumah Never Dies!
