I don't know where you are from, how old you are, what tribe you're from, what your so called PhD is in,and above all what your motives for your daily posting on Ghanaweb are. If you are a Ghanaian who witnessed the Gold Coast, its transition to commonwealth Ghana, and then to Republic Ghana, the creation of the infrastructure that we enjoy today, and those that our revolutionist redeemers sold cheaply to themselves and foreigners, the quality of our education, and our nascent manufacturing base, then regardless of what tribe you're from, you would have been proud to be a Ghanaian. Even some Nigerian in London were calling themselves "Ghanaians". It's amazing that foreign students get our history right, but our own Ghanaians seem to study our history with half-brain. Go study ALL our history.

This is from Okoampa-Ahoofe from Chapter 2 ( "Harvest of Foolery") of his collection of essays published on 2004. When did his lobotomy occur? When he found out that he was related to J. B. Danquah.
"And here, it is significantly instructive to observe that none of the myriad putsches and coup detats have been staged by any other than bona fide members of the Ghanaian military. Granted, some rascal civilians are known to have staunchly backed regressivley Darwinian means of political access, including a world-renowned University-educated former prime minister. Interestingly, in July 1956, when President Nkrumah's Convention People's Party (CPP) won a landslide victory, Dr. Kofi Abrefa Busia rode herd on a delegation to the British office in London, to petition the British Crown, and Ghana's extant colonial overlord, to desist from granting the already-scheduled return of Ghana to self-governance. Fortunately, Dr. Kofi Abrefa Busia and his right-wing bourgeois reactionaries did not succeed. He would, however, succeed ten years later in backing the military junta that unseated the Nkrumah administration and facilitated the precipitous devolution of Ghanaian national destiny.
Indeed, it is interesting to observe that Ghana's major and, to-date, only international airport is named for General E.K. Kotoka, the very Darwinian outlaw who spearheaded the grossly unimaginative overthrow of the constitutionally elected government of the CPP. For many detractors and outright enemies of Nkrumah, Kotoka's greatest—if also sole—achievement was simply getting rid of an elected dictator. It has often been said, largely by Western academics, that Nkrumah was a heartless and fatuous dictator; these days, one hears Mr. Jerry John Rawlings, the career soldier who ran Ghana for twenty harrowing incontrovertibly bloody years, described as a "benign dictator." It is significant to observe that Mr. Rawlings, whose agnatic parentage is purported to be Scottish, presided over the dastardly kidnapping and summary execution of three Ghanaian supreme court judges, all of whom belonged to a single ethnic nationality.
When one agrees with the Western ideological mythology that Nkrumah was a raw-boned dictator bereft of vision, then it begins to make sense that Kotoka's statue should continue to command the august facade of Accra International Airport, thus perpetually humiliating those of us who incurably believe in democratic governance. Needless to say, the 1966 Kotoka-led coup initiated the barbaric, neo-colonial military dynasty that Ghanaian continue to suffer….
That Ghana's post-colonial political dilemma transcends military dictatorship cannot be honestly gainsaid. In fact, many of the most vociferous civilian opposition party leaders, some of whom are currently sitting in parliament, representing misguided and hoodwinked constituents, are known to have collaborated with Kotoka's so-called National Liberation Council to unseat President Nkrumah. It is also significant to observe that these largely superannuated rascals and executive national, fiduciary muggers continue to dominate whatever passes by the name of "the legitimate opposition." This state of affairs, coupled with a largely under-educated and under-informed electorate, has made it almost impossible to rectify the prevailing socioeconomic chaos ravaging the country.”

Ahooyaw Ahootan, in the first place the former first public servant of the world Kofi Annan does not need your unqualified endorsement or opinion to make this long overdue confession statement Kofi Annan should have said this whilst he was in office as UN General secretary, it is nonetheless better late than never. Kofi Annan’s statement is what is making rounds among world leaders both past and now. All sane Ghanaians do concur to the statement made by Kofi Annan except for you nation wreckers Mate Meho knaves.
Ahootan your ignorance is bliss. Your unqualified opinion is fraught with so much prejudice that no nirvana can save you. When will this fool or HE-GOAT disappear without a trace or just disappear off the face of the earth?! It will be a malicious glee or Schadenfreude. It will be like Easter and Christmas all into one. The fewer Ahootans the merrier In fact you are an ultimate disgrace to human kind. The beast and horror monster one will not want to meet. To compound your nightmare ignomy which transcend any human Imagination you choose to display your extreme foolishness to world on the internet. It seems to me that with each passing day your stupidity is getting the only part of you which is still functioning although any doctor will declare you brain dead.What a dipstick! Maybe I am in vain flogging a dead horse in the name of Okoamboni Ahooyaw Ahootan.
Kwame Nkrumah is more crucial and relevant today than before because his axioms and predictions have come to fore on the dot. Nkrumah is still an inspiration for the whole of Africa and the black race. His unmatched legacy will live on and on and increase in popularity whilst that of your lazy minded leased uncle Danquah sinks into oblivion. With regards to aspiration for a higher goal which Nkrumah benchmarked as the African personality; this will always remain the yardstick by which Ghanaians/Africans are measured as well as excel in the world of science, literature and art. FYI the British left the Gold coast in shatters without a single factory. You are a swindler with next to nothing knowledge on the history of Ghana(Gold Coast). Your fake street PhD has no value. You can continue to tell your tales to the marines not discerning Ghanaians.
In the words of Kwame Nkrumah 'We are prepared to pick it (Ghana) up and make it a nation that will be respected by every nation in the world.' I need an Amen! Amen!!!!!!!!Yes, we surely will. Yes we can.
Let us live up to Kwame Nkrumah's aspirations today and show the world what we are capable of." Kofi Annan
The former number one public servant of world is a trillion times wiser than you knucklehead. It is fools like you Ahootan who rush in where angels fear to tread. To win notoriety in stupidity is nothing to aspire for.
How can a man patent stupidity and feel good about it? Ask Ahootan!
Ahootan, If anything, you are the most unqualified person to criticize Osageyfo Dr. Kwame Nkrumah. Your con uncle Danquah would not have got/had scholarship to study in the UK had it not been for Akyems betrayal of Ashantis prior to the Yaa Ashantewaa war. It was the Akyems who scouted the British through the jungle to enable the British to defeat the Ashantis in 1902. the rest is history; Kumasi was burnt to the ground. Thanks oh hell no, shame on you Akyem traitors. Your treasonous campaign will never make any Akyem lead Ghana for you Akyems will Punk Ghana and before we know to our utter astonishment or consternation sold it. Never trust a backstabber; never trust an Akyem.
Now with all your scam PhD, you are nothing but a scumbag. With each passing day you binge drink in your stinking NY RAT HOLE and the only time you enjoy fresh air your vomit nonsense. Drop dead you son of a gun.

What more can be done to prove to idiots like this educated illiterate that, no amount of disparaging or derogatory remarks, will ever taint the image of this man (African's most beloved son). But for this God-sent leader, I don't know where Africa will be today. His critics, Like this buffoon, are relentless in their attacks for one and one reason only: their role as collaboraters in subjugating Africa came to an end, as the continent became liberated. And with that ended all the benefits they incurred as accomplices in the misery they helped perpertuated during the colonial time. I find it repulsive that in this day and age we have people like this who call themselves educated and yet starving for knowledge.

Okoampa's father taught elementary school woodwork, at Ashanti Mampong, in the early 60's. Under Nkrumah, he was encouraged and given study leave with pay to pursue a diploma course in Drama and Theatre Studies (Dondology, as it was termed in the local parlance). The senior Okoampa was a Ghana Young Pioneer Instructor. He taught us patriotism. There was never any talk of divisive tribalism and disrespect towards the other. It is a shame that junior Okoampa refuses to acknowledge Nkrumah's role in turning the life of his father for the better. Juniors desire to be linked to the umbilical cord of intellectual lightweights who are not referenced in academic circles outside our shores is an indication of his low self-esteem.

Prof. your hatred for Nkrumah whom I wonder you know and interacted with is nauseating and would serve you no good purpose. You cannot re-invent history. It is natural that in life we have to band with people who share our philosophy of life.
If Nkrumah got to the watershed point with his compatriots who brought him back into the country to prosecute the Independence agenda at a point in time does not make him the DEMON you never fail to dishonestly proclaim him to be to upcoming Ghanaians who know little of our history of the Independence struggle.
Prof. it would be unwise of you to continue in your fruitless denigrating Nkrumah for even the Whiteman from whom he wrestled for Independence for Ghana even recognize his greatness as to vote him the Millennium man.

I wrote the other day that it is the right of any person who declare his dead parents of grandparents a saint and worship them. It is confirmed by the practice around the world that people declare their dead relative saints and worship them. It is against the freedom of conscience and worship for you Kwame Okoampa-Ahoofe to refuse us from worshiping the Osagyefo Dr. Kwame Nkrumah.
Whiles Abraham Lincoln, Thomas Jefferson and Wiston Churchill profess the superiority of one race the Blanco race over other races Kwame Nkrumah stated that every race in the world played his part in human civilization and thus one human race must not oppress the other.
After Ghana's independence Nkrumah did not allot the superiority of the Negroid race over others and confined them to a position less than that of the white man's dog. But that was exactly what Lincoln, Jefferson and Churchill did and it is a fact that when Kwame Nkrumah call for the brotherhood of all the races the "sages" in the west still had racial segregation laws in their constitutions.
Whiles Britain because of its history could not ban the freedom of thought, conscience an association in Britain it was a law punishable by 15 years imprisonment to be a member of the socialist or communist parties in the British colonies.
The current U.S. constitution bare the U.S. Socialist and Communist parties from both congress and senate. Even no U.S. company will employ you if it knows that you are a communist or a socialist.
Dr. Kwame Okoampa-Ahoofe if you are aware of those facts, then why do you pretend to be ignorant and display it to the highest absurdity.
When Dr.J.B. Danquah and Prof. Kofi Abrefa Busia were in the United States of America they rode in cabins designated by the constitution of that country at that time to be meant for dogs and Negroes because they accepted that they are inferior to the Blanco.
When Ghana's Minister of Finance in 1962 Mr. Komla Agbeli Gbedema was in the U.S. he could not be sheepish like his fellow countrymen namely Danquah and Busia who sees nothing wrong with the infringement of the rights of Negroes in the U.S. It is also on record that Danquah and Busia supported the fascist colonial Italy, Spain and Portugal in Africa as well as apartheid in Southern Africa.
Dr. Okoampa-Ahoofe in order not to spew your ignorance about the topic of inclusiveness which was not accorded to Negroes in both Britain and the U.S. until 1975. You decided to raise it to the highest level of accusing Osagyefo Dr. Kwame Nkrumah of not practicing inclusiveness.
When J.B. Danquah lost his seat in parliament the all inclusive president Kwame Nkrumah appointed him the Director of the Council for Arts and Sciences, a position of trust and respect that the former refused and chose to work for foreign intelligence agencies against Ghana and her people.
Lt. General Joseph Ankrah who became the chairman of the National Liberation Council was appointed as a presidential staff by Nkrumah after he was relieved from the army.
It is also on record that because of his patriotism Nkrumah has to save the various fragmented opposition political parties from further squabble by suggesting to Dr. Busia that he should as a leader of the opposition name his party United Party.
Dr. Kwame Okoampa-Ahoofe you said that you teach languages, meaning that you studied philology, but the problem with you is that perhaps you know modern English and not the history of its development.
It looks like you do not speak any Ghanaian language, thus can not write the truth when the issue is with Ghana.

For your own parochial reasons and from a purely FAMILY and kinship stance, tinged with a extreme partisanship you Okoampa will NEVER see anything good in Osagyefo Dr Kwame Nkrumah. You were brought up to see nothing good in him, nor his vision, sacrifice and sheer dedication to our NATION (not to talk of the whole of the African continent).
Therefore no one should expect anything good from you on this subject.
I however hope that like your stance on everything currently going on in Ghana (including the election petition), you stance on ALL MATTERS rest purely on your direct relationship to some of the protagonists. There we the readers and commentators can never take your writings seriously and they must be treated with the disdain that they rightly deserve.

In the annals of human history, there are those who fight vigorously against progress without tangible reasons except to hide family secrets or personal shortcomings. There is also one thing that will always be true about Nkrumah, good and bad, and that is he did come back to Ghana within ten (10) years after leaving for his studies outside Ghana.
It is painful, however, to watch Okoampa-Ahoofe expose his intellectual inferiority through his articles on ghanaweb while counting on a gullible fan base of tribal miscreants to gobble his brand of revisionist history. It is sad Ghanaians have infactuated with doctorate degree holders irrespective of study discipline. I will take a known crooked Ghanaian police officer any day of the week over a Ghanaian with PhD in English. I know at the very least what the peace officer is capable of but damn sure would not know if Okoampa-Ahoofe can either compete with an Englishman, British or American, over what it means to be syntactically correct or the original intent of any English word.

CLOSET NKRUMAHIST.
With so much bitterness, utter contempt and obsessive hatred for anything Dr Kwame Nkrumah, this Okoampa cunt will end up needing mental health care!

Kwame, you have said it all. I hope that Ignoramus who calls himself Okoampa-Ahoofe, Ph.D., will learn a thing or two from your post!!!!
Ahoofe is always an 'aho yaa' person. What does Ahoofe gain by calling Osagyefo 'Mr Kwame Nkruma' instead of showing a simple dignity and respect by saying 'Dr Kwame Nkrumah'?. Ahoofe has the propensity to exhibit his shows h ...

You are an idiot.
Now let's hear you on the nonsense at the Supreme Court!!

AHOOFE, FORMERLY NKRUMAHIST, HAS NOW TURNED ANTI-NKRUMAHIST ON GROUNDS OF TRIBAL AFFILIATION TO NKRUMAH'S POLITICAL OPPONENTS.
silly man,
Onye, kwame Nkrumah be your size?
Please do not respond to any of Ahoofe's writings. He enjoys your comments no matter how unpleasant they are. Busia's name has faded into oblivion but Nkrumah lives on!!
For your own parochial reasons and from a purely FAMILY and kinship stance, tinged with a extreme partisanship you Okoampa will NEVER see anything good in Osagyefo Dr Kwame Nkrumah. You were brought up to see nothing good in ...
