Don't tell me you're communist relics trying to mimic the name of our Progress Party (PP) under the leadership of Professor K.A. Busia for your selfish interest.
"Busia had what it takes to be a leader of any country in this world". That's not mine; that was what the world said when he died prematurely, and the military authorities at the time even displayed crocodile tears at his funeral.
The man was a respectable, knowledgeable and God fearing leader that had a complete programme for all aspects of our national development. But the ignorant communist indoctrinated Young Pioneers implanted in our midst by Nkrumah did not allow Ghanaians to benefit from his knowledge and the good work he had started to do for Ghana. They hijacked the country and impeded our development until 2001.
Although Acheampong a stooge and the adventurist that carried out the dirty work of overthrowing Prof. Busia unjustifiably, and was supported by Nkrumah's communist relics that became the pillars of his so-called NRC regime, they later on disowned him when they realized that they had backed the wrong person in order to hide their involvement in the destruction of this country. Finally, he was killed by another communist dictator that also seized power and unleashed a Cuban-style communist dictatorship on Ghanaians for 20years.
Busia did not say that he was going to stay in power indefinitely as Nkrumah did, and he did not declare Ghana as a one-party state either. In fact, he was given a 5year mandate to deliver for Ghanaians to judge whether to extend his mandate or elect a different leader. But the communist relics who were still hiding in our midst got panicked and overthrew him prematurely for fear of his progressive achievements. Truly, the man knew exactly what he was coming to do to alleviate the suffering of his people through an alternative method of development different from that of his predecessor, and hit the ground running from the first day in office.
On the other hand, Nkrumah had been in power for sixteen years and turned himself into a president for life when he realized that his popularity had waned. Indeed, this is exactly what 'power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely' means. In the sixties after he had squandered the huge reserve, the country started to go down the drain and Ghanaians yearned for a change. But since Nkrumah shut all the doors that they could use to exercise their political will and change him democratically through the ballot box, they had no option other than to force him out of office through a military coup. Therefore, the coup that removed Kwame Nkrumah from office was the only legitimate coup in the history of Ghana.

My friend you wrote good grammar on that man who masterminded the bloodiest coup d'état on mother Ghana on 24th February 1966? You called that man a Godfearing man after he had incited bloody people like generals Afrifa and kotoka to massacre hundreds of innocent and hard working Ghanaians including one of the best military generals to have been trained by the Ghana Armed Forces, general Bawa? That man and his other colleaques' evil intention brought a big CURSE on Ghana since 24th February 1966, otherwise Ghana would have been one of the best countries in the world. Your tin-god and mentors with his criminal accomplices destroyed everything and abandoned all the positive developments started by the best ever president and visionary leader Dr Kwame Nkrumah Ghana had and set back the clock of progress 50 years way back. If Ghanaians rejected your evil messiah and mentor abrefa busia, a number of times, did he have to incite coup d'état against Dr Kwame Nkrumah and thereafter with the connivance of his evil dogs led by general Afrifa organized a rigged election and declared him a prime minister in 1969? Busia and all those bloody colleaques of his will burn in hell till thy kingdom come. They would have been sent to the international criminal court in Hague if they were alive today. Their decendants of today are also following their footsteps to ensure Ghana does not advance in development and yet call themselves 'PATRIOTS'. What sort of human beings are they? Will I be wrong to say they were part of the fallen angels of lucifer who tried to replicate 24th February 1966 in Heaven but archangel Michael led his good angels to chase them out of heaven? Time will tell!
