Nana was right. The independence movement did not start with Nkrumah. As an Engineering student in a polytechnic abroad, I was made to pick up courses in Outline History of Africa, World Civilizations and History of Technology, The history of Nok Culture, etc. In my history class, I read that independence movement actually started after the World War I. The African soldiers who fought alongside the British in trenches realised that the Whiteman is not next to God after all since they witnessed the whites dying miserably besides them and that wiped away the fear and respect accorded to them. Secondly, the humiliating defeat of the Brits by the Japanese in Singapore also raised questions about the superiority of the Great Britain. Other defiance activities like the Aba Women's movement and media warfare waged by veteran African politicians like Nnamdi Azikiwe, who was then domiciled in Accra, and JB Dankwa all contributed positively to the independence of Ghana and Africa as a whole. To isolate Nkrumah and bestow on him the sole achiever of Ghana's independence is very erroneous. I never attended any university but I think universities in Ghana are not teaching our youth well.

How can an 8 yr old child disobey the father and why should the father go this far? We need answers.

The question of which players started the match is not what the fans want to know. Who scored the goal is the question the fans normally ask. Nana's eulogy for the pioneers of the independence struggle fell short. His father who was one of the three judges who threw Obitsebi Lamptey into jail was not mentioned. Kwame Nkrumah pulled himself out of the UGCC and formed the CPP due to ideological differences. I expected Nana to come out with the whole damn truth rather than beating about the bush.

Had our independence history ever claimed that Kwame Nkrumah was the lonely architect of our freedom from the brute of the imperialist British administration? The chronicle of our motherland has it vividly that Kwame Nkrumah was invited to lead the organisation for our freedom.

However, they wanted a slow, steady march to independence whilst Nkrumah chose an INDEPENDENCE NOW approach and hence separated from the United Gold Coast Convention (UGCC) and formed the Convention People's Party (CPP) to champion his drive for freedom which you are enjoying today. Should he have heeded to their advice, Ghana would have gone the way of that of South Africa.

Now, get this, after the Second World War, Britain was stony-broke and have to pay the USA some tens of million of pounds. The Gold Coast which was a colony of theirs was rich in Cocoa, Gold, Diamond and Bauxite among others, a readily available riches they could trade with the US to settle their massive accumulated debt. This very fact gave the impetus for the British to tighten their grip on the then Gold Coast.

So, Nkrumah's INDEPENDENCE NOW was very necessary and timely. Get yourself acquainted with the right history, okay?

Why has he absconded if he's a man enough, disgraceful man. I don't think this man is even doing something productive to take care of this little girl.
