we dont need no messiah bullshit talk to mislead our people into fantasy , God has said there can be only one messiah and the rest are fakes and liars , only leaders who truly believe in justice and the rule of law will ensure prosperity. our people based on their own competence and being rewarded on merit will secure together with common sense a sustainable development. vision was a matter of the middle ages , today its about science , proper strategy and hard work. look at all the countries that succeeded , was it about visionary leaders or systems of governance that secured basic freedoms and human rights. America had George Washington who had the good sense not to declare himself king or president for life like nkrumah . Germany willy Brandt and so on. We have a system of governance and a political party that despises and hates its own people . A judiciary which is as useless as toilet paper because it does know what a penal code is , what is punishment with the hope of rehabilitation rather puts young men in jail for 45 years , confirms rigged elections and enabled wanton theft based on judgement debts . we need a bloody revolution in order the clean this nonsense up and reestablish governance based on common sense , justice and real love for our people and their prosperity

What ever your name is, you seemed to be perfectly groomed to wag your tail anytime the name of the Aryan race is mentioned!
You're the most retarded fool on this planet to think the yardstick of establishing good governance is "a bloody revolution"! Yes our system is corrupt! Yes we need changes! And yes Kwame Nkrumah wasn't perfect but are the so-called leaders you just mentioned whose ancestors looted, burgled, and enslaved your ancestors perfect? Certainly, our leaders are in the habit of being perpetual aid seekers but the irony is that, the aid "awarded" to us is the white mans' way of diverting our attention from their cynicism!
Science and hard work could be few of the salient means of development but without good and able leadership of a country, everything comes to naught! I could see you're unemployed----because, any responsible man with a job wouldn't spend as much time on the web as you've been doing! Keep it up! Always, be the 1st to post!

OSAGYEFO KWAME NKRUMAH is already an Iconic,Legendary,Adoring and Admiring figure by millions across the PanAfricanist world and even his detractors in the west now respect him and what he stood for, just go and ask the bbc and the survey they conducted some time ago about some African leaders.

Shallow talk is cheap indeed! Ghana and Africa in general is a natural resources battleground for already rich and powerful nations and no right thinking industrialised country in this world will sit idle for such a resource rich region to cut a development path by itself and for itself without any interference by the former in the affairs of the latter.
You see your country Ghana should count itself damn lucky to have had radical and daring leader like Kwame Nkrumah to have even had the guts to build initial good economic, industrial, educational, civic and social and political foundations for a comparatively small country such as Ghana. Look around Africa and identify which country that had had it as good as Ghana did.
Without a very tough, radical and revolutionary minded individuals such as Nkrumah and his likes to put their foot down and play the cat and mouse game with the Northern Hemisphere nations so that they could buy time to develop and entrench the structures of their national institutions and maintain them for a considerable period of time before they are handed down to posterity as finished products ready for continuity and business as usual (BAU) operations, no under-developed country will ever make it to a developed status. A case in point is China. Are you in the know of how long China was trampled upon and the pilferage she went through in the hands of the Western Empires and that of neighbouring mighty empire of Japan before they were eventually blessed with Chairman Mao and his team of hard nut revolutionaries to come into the scene and how long it took them to resist the West, put their foot down and did their things their own way before things got up to how they are now for their country?
Research into these things to educate yourself so when you are enlightened you can educate your brethren. You should only have to live in the West, become part of their culture, study their history and traditions, their governmental setups and their structures, their aspirations and aims for their present population and posterity and their innate desire to perpetuate the lifestyles that have been handed over to them by their ancestry by all means possible to appreciate the reality of these matters.

Carl Graham, I am calling you out so you can either stop being a coward and a hypocrite or intellectually unprincipled. Can you name one nation and a corresponding political leader in the history of the world who in the face of sabotage, violence, terrorism and extremism by opposition parties or anti-government groups ignored or allowed those acts to continue without pursuing such members? You cannot because there is no such nation or government. Get over it; Nkrumah was ahead of his time and some 30+ years later even the most civilized industrious nations of the world are using the very Nkrumah ideas and ideals to solve acts of chaos, terrorism and vandalism in a world of a more civilized people than Nkrumah's time.
While at it you may answer why in Ghana there have been more government sponsored acts of tribal animus, civil strife and deaths than ever under political parties masking themselves in democratic values even as they steal, misappropriate funds, sabotage government institutions and destroy every possible paper trail covering their misdeeds. Yes you need a new song and dance and a new wave of brain cells to help you get off the same old crap. There are evil people in the world and no amount of comfort or using kid gloves on them will work. The world did not comfort nations in either World War 1 or 2. You are nothing but an apologist for people claiming to have rights to rule while everyone else is destined to be their servants.

MY BROTHER, IT IS ONLY THE TRUTH THAT CAN SET YOU AND YOUR PEOPLE FREE, AND THE EARLIER YOU AND YOUR PEOPLE EMBRACE THAT, THE BETTER IT WILL BE FOR YOU AND THE COUNTRY.
IT IS HIGH TIME YOU RECOGNIZE THE GOOD WORKS OF DR. NKRUMAH AND THE DESTRUCTIVE IDEAS OF YOUR FOUNDERS.

IF YOU HAVE THE INTENT TO KILL, YOUR RESTING PLACE IS THE JAIL CELL OR DETENTION WHATEVER YOU WANT TO CALL IT.
DON'T YOU WISH NKRUMAH WAS STILL THE PRESIDENT RULING GHANA WITH AN IRON FIST INSTEAD OF YOUR PEOPLE STEALING MONEY FROM THE PEOPLE AND MESSING UP THE GOOD NAME OF GHANA?
HE WAS A DESPOT INDEED AND WHAT HE DID FIFTY YEARS AGO IS STILL WHAT YOU STAND ON TO PROCLAIM THAT "GHANA IS THE GATEWAY TO AFRICA". THAT IS A BIG SHAME. PLEASE, YOU PEOPLE NEED TO WISE UP AND STOP ALL THESE UNCONSTRUCTIVE CRITICISMS.

Nkrumah the power drunk dictator, the megalomaniacal coxcomb who called himself Osagyefo, is what I remember of your father's rule. Samia, do you realize how power drunk your father was? The constitution did not even have a position of Vice-President. Anytime he travelled overseas, he appointed a so-called presidential commission of puppet chiefs to run the country in his absence. While you lived a life of luxury at Flagstaff House, many children in Ghana did not have that luxury. Their fathers were languishing in jail for disagreeing with your father. Under his Preventive Detention Act, many innocent Ghanaians were jailed without trial. Your attempt at revisionist history, is disingenuous. Do you realize that under your father's one-party Ghana, you Samia, could have been sent to Nsawam without trial for speaking your mind or for just belonging to an opposition party?
To many of us, your father was a wickedly incompetent tyrant who squandered Ghana's fortunes on ill conceived grandiose schemes of Pan-African Communism.

Samia Yaba Nkrumah, there is no doubt that the pain I felt when I heard of your father’s passing on February 24, 1966. Oh, how time can fly so fast so innocently, yet we understand what this article mean to you, and to all Ghanaians and Africans.
Everything about your father is true to this day. Without Dr. Kwame Nkrumah, Africa, would have found it hard to get out of "Colonialism." I want all our brothers and sister in Ghana and African to know that, the touch Dr. Kwame Nkrumah lit for us is still burning so brightly. We are so fortunate as people in Ghana and for that matter Africa, to have someone like Dr. Kwame Nkrumah us our liberator.
Thank you Samia Yaba Nkruman. We have a lot of work yet to do, so let us all put our minds to it. Let us not forget that the sweat and toil of the founding father of Ghana and Africa and make it better than we have found it.

The responsibility rests on the shoulders of all Nkrumahist parties to bury theit individual ambitions and team up to form a strong CPP that will be able to regain political power to help Ghanaians achieve the goals they deviated from when the great Nkrumah, the first President of the liberated Ghana, was overthrone.
Coming together can be achieved, if we genuinely determine to use our unity thereof to continue the good works started by Dr Kwame Nkrumah.

Then coming to London to study Politics, Philisophy, and Development Economics, I came to realy understand what Dr Nkrumah was trying to achive. Unfortunately the then opposition either did not understand him or were naive and selfish in their view of how development can be achieved in Ghana in particular and Africa in general.

Africa must unite. The imperative of continental unity is even greater now than it was when Nkrumah first espoused it. Nkrumah's promotion of the African personality and self-determination is very much alive and even more relevant today than it was in his time.
We will forever remember Kwame Nkrumah for the personal sacrifices he made in the struggle for independence, for expanding educational opportunity for all, for our industrial infrastructure, hydroelectricity, Tema harbour, Ghana Maritime University, Ghana Navy and Ghana Airforce and many more.
Let us continue to pursue the ideals Kwame Nkrumah stood for to attain African unity and emancipation of our people from oppression.

Remember free education in the North, huh??? That is if you come from the North as your name suggests. I hope it is a pseudonym.
How can any right thinking person make another person from a foreign country co - president?
Hello Sam : If right thinking people of Ghana allowed # 1 Bastard (White man )-J.J.Rawlings to be President Of Ghana ,why not a true son of African descent be co -President in African country ?- Be your own judge Foool.
The truth is that not only was he President Of Ghana for a year or two but 19 years, and ruled the true citizens of Ghana. with iron hands- killed innocent Ghanaians, naked women and flogged them for fun
This is a southerner who used northern name as camouflage.
Well written Tongo.

With the passage of time, we begin to understand his world view. Nkrumah was eons ahead of us and he continues to live in our hearts and minds.
They overthrew the only TRUE government we had and killed Nkrumah.
This is a man who did not steal a peswa of Ghana's money. Ghana is under a curse because of what was done to him and what we are doing to his party, the CPP.
may your great Soul rest in peace
Samia Yaba Nkrumah, there is no doubt that the pain I felt when I heard of your father’s passing on February 24, 1966. Oh, how time can fly so fast so innocently, yet we understand what this article mean to you, and to all ...

You seem to be a selfless, and genuine person and can be a good leader. I believe that you deserve to become our leader in the next Presidential election. Can we all make this happen????
Without a doubt, Samia is a great and a genuine individual! As to whether she can be a great president? I'm not so sure! She seemed to be too liberal to me! I may be wrong but she hasn't proved to me yet! She still needs to b ...

Massa, then you don't know what you are talking. Is this not the woman who shot some sense in Nduom's head? I have respected Samia ever since.
My brother or sister,from the jokers we have had in the past and current who use tribalism to separate us so they take turns to take advantage of our trust with EPA and GMO,Samia cannot be worse than that.
She is the ONLY po ...

All those who justify the 1966 coup and any other coup that occurred in Ghana deserve to be sold to EPA and GMO.

Samia,Your dad was loved by the lot and hated by the few. His was an era of misguided leadership and he happened to become the most Misunderstood. He Is Resting Peacefully and Watching over You.
