This is why Nkrumah is no match for Madiba Mandela (MM). Arresting people and taking their assets for opposing your ideology shows immaturity.

Reason for the massive suffering and abuse in Ghana,Djaba diverted cocoa spraying machines meant for farmers by the government of Ghana through the ministry of agriculture and for this crime which i will term sabotage was lawfully tried convicted and jailed and not on any coup attempt charges.You may chose hating Nkrumah out of partisan reason ,Nkrumah came for the entire black race with thousands of Africans benefitting from his gesture through education which is the most lasting legacy any leader can bequeath,with even some of his peers in the freedom fighters who later turned out liberating their respective countries from colonial jaws.You can hate and despise Nkrumah he is light years ahead of any of his peers in leadership and achievements or contemporal leaders.

Both Ka Na Wu and the Daily Guide reporter are too ignorant.Djaba was an economic sabouteur who was jailed for defrauding the Ghana government of 2 million pounds in a cocoa spraying machines deal.Now,Nkrumah was declared the greatest African who lived within the last thousand years(Africa's Man Of the Millenium)by A BBC poll fourteen years ago when Mandela was alive.It was not narrow-minded Barrack Obama's opinion.It was a POLL.I hope illiterate Ka Na Wu knows the difference.

HENRY DZABA WAS SIMPLY AN ECONOMIC SABOTEUR, A THIEF(proper 'ole kpata kpata'). HE WAS SENT TO PRISON BECAUSE OF HIS ORDERED SECONDHAND INSTEAD OF BRAND NEW TRACTORS HE WAS ALLOCATED MONEY FOR TO PROCURE THE AGRICULTURAL MACHINERIES POCKETED THE THE BIG CHUNK OF THE MONEY AND THIS IS HOW HE MADE HIS MONEY. SADLY, HE COULD NOT ENJOY THE MONEY HE STOLE FROM GHANAIANS AND EVIDENTLY IT APPEARS HIS CHILDREN WOULD NOT HAVE THE CHANCE TO ENJOY IT EITHER AS THEY HAVE STARTED FIGHTING EACH OTHER. 'THE EVIL THAT MEN DO LIVES AFTER THEM'. HENRY DZABA DE-CAMPED TO PROGRESS PARTY( ma te me ho)SIMPLY BECAUSE OF HIS DISGRACEFUL AND CORRUPT ACT. PROFESSIONAL JOURNALISTS ALWAYS RESEARCH THEIR STORIES. SADLY, GHANA JOURNALISTS ALWAYS APPEAR AS 1ST YEAR MEDIA STUDIES STUDENTS. THIS IS SAD!!

This is a result of polygamy,when you marry so many women without having control of the family.Forget about your wealth there will be confusion after your death.John Mahama should learn from this.

Anokwa, you are an idiot. Nkrumah had to do what he did because these so called Mate-Meho opposition will not go for nothing Nkrumah proposed. ie. Building of the city of Tema, The building of Tema Harbour, Akosombo Dam and everything in between. They opposed every friggin thing Nkrumah wanted to do. You are a baby but I can imagine what Ghana would be today if Nkrumah had 10 more years at the helm. That, my friend is why you hear his name every friggin time. We lost our ICON.

People should learn to mind their own business.. Disagreements occur in most Ghanaian families. Negative publicity is not necessary. Show some respect for the dead. This was a private burial. Unfortunately some of the man's children who did not care about their father when he was alive chose to capitalise on his death to settle old scores. In the end, the voice of reason prevailed.

Those who boycotted the burial led astray by the rascal Hans are nothing to write about. As for Nkrumah, the less said about the communist the better. He accused his own friend of profiteering and trumped up false charges against him. Ghana is full of haters and enemies of progress, several of whom are on the ghanaweb forum.

It will take us a long time to reach middle income status with the negative attitude and pull him Down syndrome. The haters will continue to wallow in poverty and remain beggars for years to come . Enough said!!!
