    Hello people of Ghana. You can take your own life with medicine ......... For instance 15 paracetamol at once. Or combine medicine and akpeteshie or weedicide.

    HE WAS BORN KOFI. HOW DID HE BECOME KWAME????????
    HIS REAL NAME WAS FRANCIS NWIA-KOFI NGOLOMAH AND THEN HE BECAME KWAME NKRUMAH !! THE JURY IS OUT THERE!!!

  • P Djamgbe 1 week ago

    The article says he was born Nwia-Kofi, it doesn't say he was born on Friday - mind you there are other ethnicities in Africa who name their children Kofi or Koofi regardless of what day they were born.

    Exactly so. He’s not a Ghanaian. His parents were from Guinea and had stayed in present day Seikwa area and worked as labourers. Look at the beautiful shit reasons behind the change of name!

  • Nsia 1 week ago

    Ngolomah in Nzema is exactly the same as Nkrumah. It is just spelling snd pronunciation difference. There is no difference between Kwadwo and Kojo. Cobbina and Kwabena.
