Madam, truly your father was great and patriotic but he was a human and made some mistakes. We owe him a debt of gratitude.
SARPONG,I am touched by your kind words.Thanks for your honesty and fairness.You are not anti-Nkrumah after all.I hope all the anti-Nkrumah writers like DR SAS,AHOOFE etc will emulate your sincerety.
So if Nkrumah meant nothing why are reference always made to help. With dumsor issue references are always made to Nkrumah. with infrastructure industry and economic development reference are always made to Him why?
Enough s ...

Dear Brother Nana Ansah,
Well said.
One of America's great scholars once said Nkrumah was a real, genuine man. He also said Nkrumah was a "prophet of reality."
That is why he stands tall among the greatest of world ...

Sarpong I am very glad you have now changed your bad ways, hope those days of insulting people who disagreed with you are finally over.
Nkrumah is dead and gone and most of his ideologies are obsolete. There are more billionaires in Moscow than San Francisco, Paris, Dubai, Chicago combined. Actually, it is only second to New York City. China, is no more pract ...

We are yet to see their contribution to our national development. Ghana is almost a failed state under the NDC and the irony is that most of these corrupt and nation wreckers(killers of dream,) in the NDC claim to be Nkrumais ...

The CPP’s Mahamadu Moses Yahaya won the Kumbugu constituency seat with a 51.8% margin after the bye-election of 2013, following the resignation of NDC's Alhaji Mumuni.
And that is what CPP is running on? One parliamentarian? Trust me the CPP of today is not the same as the CPP during Nkrumah's era. You guys need a real leader and Samia is not it. If CPP can't win in the Nzema area then trus ...

Gye Nyame, first of all you must admit that you goofed by stating that the CPP does not have any representation in parliament. You must admit your ignorance about this fact and bravely apologize instead of going on on a tange ...

Your ranting is rather Nkwaseasem not Nyasasem.Nkrumah had the vision of Solar Energy as far back as 25th November,1964 before the White man thought about it.

Sorry, Nkrumah did his best but he did not give us freedom. Freedom from where? We just changed slave masters. We got freedom from White colonial masters and put under bondage again by a black power hungry dictator.
Yes, N ...

Nkrumah did not advocate one system of governance but a multiplicity of systems to be tailored according to the political, social,economic, technological and scientific developmental stages of Ghana. Change is a necessary fac ...

You cannot change history, Nkrumah made himeself the only president for a while to come.
When will you
overcome your stupidity and ignorance? Nkrumah's idea of continental government for Africa is needed now.What about his free education policy and free medical care.Where is your sense of reasoning?
Free medical care and free education was not introduced in Gold Coast/Ghana by Nkrumah. We had both free when the colonial Masters were ruling Ghana.
United Africa as a one country is a mirage that will never happen in a m ...

YOUR: "...We as a country cannot even see ourselves as Ghanaians first but our tribal affiliations..."
WE SAY: Take us out of your "We"!
Sarpong, when I read your earlier comment above, I thought to myself that there is still hope for you but then I said to myself - not so fast, these Nkrumah bashers are unpredictable and unstable for the most part. True enoug ...

The majority of china's industries are publicly owned enterprises and if you compare that of Russia who privatised much of it's industries, China is way ahead. Nkrumah's model was very similar to the current Chinese model whe ...

Ms Nkrumah,
I wish you well.
I am no politician, however, like many Ghanaians, I believe the economic mismanagement of consecutive governments since 1966 is a travesty that must come to an end; therefore any group of p ...

Great minds never think alike. Nkrumah's development plan for Ghana and Africa has no alternative or rival.
That is what the CPP must understand and convey to the people of Ghana and Africa, by bullet points, whether CPP ...

CPP have done a woeful job in articulating Nkrumah's vision and achievements. The party is replete with internal squabbles, and lacks direction. There have not been any serious efforts to rebuild the party, as the party that ...

You are rather naive and ignorant.Nkrumah's ideas are written in STONE.
Yes, Nkrumah never dies. We love the man even in his grave, we cherish his memory, we adore him and we shall forever do same. But any name semblance in the form of any group shall never represent the Osagyefo we adore, love, ...

nkrumah is dead and gone. the bones are rotten so are his stupid ideas.
These are great words:
1Nkrumah wrote, "I am happy in the knowledge that death can never extinguish the torch which I have lit in Ghana. Long after I am dead and gone, it will continue to burn and be borne aloft, giving li ...
