We must not forget the significance of the Bond of 1844 concerning the engagement between Fanti chiefs and the British merchants.
The British didn't colonise Ghana by force but through agreement.
As a matter of fact,the earlier Europeans came to the Gold Coast with the sole aim of commercial activities backed by their Monarchs and the Pope.
Nana Kwamina Ansah and many other chiefs on the coast willingly leased lands to the Europeans to build their trading castles and forts.
What most of us don't know is that some of the Fanti chiefs agreed with the British merchants to trade for 100 years even before the British governors arrived.
It's not for nothing that the British parliament chose the 6th March the same date the Bond of 1844 for our independence.Tnx.

KOTOKA’S NAME HAS BEEN ON OUR AIRPORT FOR ALMOST 70 YEARS. IF GHANAIANS ARE SO OBSESSED ABOUT NKRUMAH WHY HAVE SEVERAL ANTI-UP GOVTS NOT CHANGED THE NAME? KOTOKA MASTERMINDED THE COUP WHICH OVERTHREW NKRUMAH. THIS SHOWS GHANAIANS AS HYPOCRITES. WE LIKED NKRUMAH, BUT LOVED KOTOKA FOR OVERTHROWING NKRUMAH.

Kotoka, Afrifa and their group that toppled Nkrumah did Ghana great service. If there is a referendum on whether the name of the airport should be changed most likely most people will opt for the retention of the current name because it is a constant reminder of the excesses of Kwame Nkrumah the dictator and his Preventive Detention Act, etc.

CPP, was Kwame Nkrumah the ORIGINATOR of Ghana's Independence? I read that the idea of Independence was on the table before Nkrumah was invited.

Why is CPP dead? I answer for you. CPP is dead today because of the treacherous behaviour of Nkrumah and CPP thieves. CPP birthed corruption and propaganda in Ghana that's why Ghana is what it is now

Nkrumah was invited to join what movement in the then Gold Coast? If he was "invited" to join the struggle for self-rule, how does that make him the only founder of Ghana, how?

CPP people are you not ashamed of the present state of your party? Kwame Nkrumah must be turning in his grave. Instead of thinking of how to resurrect the dead CPP you are only interested in issuing useless statements. Where was Nkrumah when Sargeant Adjetey and co were shedding their blood for this country. Even Paa Grant who paid Nkrumah's fare to come to Ghana is not the founder of Ghana. Are you not ashamed that the CPP currently has not a single seat in parliament? You may hate the Danqua Busia people but at least for nothing at all they have managed to keep their tradition alive and they are ruling the country. Idiots.

The CPP must not disturb our ears. When did Nkrumah come into the scene? Was he not invited by the leaders of the UGCC to be the party's secretary? Was the struggle for independence not ongoing? You sit down for the NDC to trick you into believing that they are Nkrumahist so that they win your votes. If you don't know let me tell you that it was for your votes that the Founder's day nonsense became a public holiday during Prof. Mills' tenure. Have you forgotten that this issue became debatable when it raised it's head? You cannot change the history of Ghana for political reasons. From the basic school to the university no history book talks about Nkrumah being the founder of Ghana. We know the big six which Nkrumah was one of them. Even before the first political party was formed prominent people in the country had begun the struggle for independence. Don't waste our time on this unnecessary argument.

I think the CPP is doing disservice to Nkrumah by responding to such pettiness from the President. He is entitled to his personal opinion.No one can take that from him. But I will not waste a minute of my time on these revisionist. They cannot change the facts of history.Quite apart from that, of all the issues that we as a nation is facing currently, is that all that they can think about at this time?Shame on them, shame on us all.Long live Ghana

That's it simple. Either Nkrumah alone or all Ghanaians who lived at the time. It's not about who and who had book long. Book long does not mean solving problems. In f t they add problems

I respect the President's right to say what he thinks.And I will die defending his right to his opinion just like all of us. The day we deny anyone the right to an opinion we will be all be losers.

Undoubtedly, only your CPP knows that "Nkrumah founded Ghana", as you ingloriously seem to mislead and misinform the untrained minds in the society. Just like Frimpong Anokye who is entitled to his opinion to assuage his whims and caprices. Yet, most unbiased and well-meaning Ghanaians do strongly agree with and endorse Nana Addo's exhaustive analysis of all the various episodes, which led to the founding of the nation. Indeed, we do owe all such great and rightly acknowledged founding fathers a great debt of gratitude; without any exception whatsoever.

The "world", whatever that implies may know that Nkrumah founded Ghana. But this is not about what the "world" knows. Rather it is about what the what the majority of Ghanaians know and accept. The angelic image of Nkrumah that the defunct CPP wishes to create for Nkrumah will not find traction with the majority of the population.

The CPP should not get involved in this debate..Apart from Ghana who knows Akuffo-Addo? The Danquah /Busia people are the enemies of the CPP and Nkrumah. They were behind all the attempts by terrorists to kill Nkrumah. They were behind the coup that removed Nkrumah and the CPP from power.They were behind the disbanding of the CPP and the confiscation of the assets of the CPP.And as Akuffo-Addo has shown they are fighting all out to discredit Nkrumah and his legacy.The CPP should just ignore them.
