We that Dr. Nkrumah who has done his. We want concrete ideas for the present; crime has overtaken the county and I believe the African of the millennium would not have approve of the excessive articles on him when nothing is left of what was once a country called Gold Coast.
Do you hear me?

I hate people who still talking about Nkrumah all day long. Nkrumah was a human being like you. He came to do his best and now he is gone forever and a time has come for you to do your best as well. My question is that, what can you do to help your nation so that if you are not there then we can use that thing to remember you. Ghanaians learn a common sense. Aaaba!

You should not try to shut him down after allowing the others on the UP side to dump volumes of modified historical facts to claim exclusive heroism for their past leaders. Where were you when Dr. Sargon Adjei (Dr. SAS) serialized a narrative to demonize Nkrumah and dehumanize his supporters?
What I believe to be fair is to admonish him to drop any animosity existing between the two polars of our political landscape, now that he has presented enough provable facts to establish his claims countering Dr. SAS', and join the opposing PHDs like Okoampa-Ahoofe Jr,".s and the Dr. Sarfo Adjeis (Dr. SAS) to begin a constructive brainstorming to carve a new progressive agenda for the Nation. Agenda that all Parties can share in their successful implementation is what Ghana needs. This is where I fully agree with you. We do NOT need a Union Government to accept and implement the truth in how to advance. The fundamental needs of the Nation upon which only progress alone, even if at different rates under different regimes, could always be produced are what we need to apply our human resources on, now.
I predicted to Dr. SAS' barrage of insidious attempts to erase Nkrumah's contribution or fame, amidst personal dehumanizing insults at others who would dare challenge his conveniently selected facts, that he was priming the very Nkrumahists he was referring to as donkeys and sheep, etc., to rush in with their evidence to dispute him. Here it is!
But I do want to recognize the latter part of your piece as the most relevant to us and Ghana. So, do not hesitate to call on both sides to order and bury their hatchets and proceed to jointly help build Ghana.
The truth hurts sometimes. But it must be acknowledged to humble us to depend on each other for a stronger Nation.
I think we can accommodate all our past leaders in allotting honors for their contributions, however small. What is dangerous and injurious to our common progress is trying to deny any usefulness for any of those leaders' role in our political journey.
Long Live Ghana!!!

Worst tyranny in Africa by Nkrumah killing all political opponents in Nsawam Prison and driving others into exile live on. President for life without a Vice live on. One-party state and running the nation as a personal property live on. Control of the Press and Judiciary and dismissal of Chief Justice live on.
WHAT IS HAPPENING IN THE GAMBIA NOW WAS EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENED IN GHANA UNDER NKRUMAH. THE TRUTH HURTS

KWAME, thank you. You deliberately left out the fact that Nkrumah defeated JAKE's father in the 1951 elections. Maybe, you can do a piece on how Komla Gbedemah got Nkrumah on to the ballot paper. Two persons not recognised in modern Ghana, but who played key roles in building Ghana are Gbedemah and Krobo Edusei, that great nationalist leader from Asante. I hope in the naming of streets, Government at central and local government would name streets after Gbedemah, Krobo Edusei and Mumuni Bawumia, who led the progressive section of the Northern People's Party to join the CPP.

Hello Mr. & Mrs. Ghana,

Botwe-Asamoah, you've, manifested beyond all reasonable doubts that, you're, indeed, ACADEMICIAN PAR EXCELLENCE! In addition, you've shown, with your fine article that you know your stuff.
The first political party in the west coast of Africa to practice terrorism, Danquah/Dombo/Busia fraternity will, just a matter of time, COLLAPSE into total oblivion.
Currently tagged by large number of Ghanaians as CERTIFIED PATHOLOGICAL LYING PARTY OF GHANA, it was no wonder that, Ghana and Ghananians sent them clear and succint message in November 2012. And the Supreme Court of Ghana, delivered them the COUP DE GRACE in August 2013.
Botwe-Asamoah, MORE GREASE TO YOUR ELBOWS! You deserve another PhD.
LONG LIVE AFRICA! GOD BLESS GHANA!! GOD BLESS BOTWE-ASAMOAH!!! FORWARD EVER!!!!

I think Dr. Asamoah-Botwe gave most credits where due, to answer your plagiarism question. Others did not do so in the past. But even in those cases where credit seemed absent, it was not always easy to claim plagiarism because people were telling what they knew first-hand or from their own original research sources. Other facts might have been drawn from various governmental sources that allowed free unassigned-credit references.
However, your reminder is worthy of notice.

The history lesson is good and especially for the majority of citizens who were born long after Osagyefo was overthrown. However, even more important is the need for CPP to vigorously organize and campaign for the hearts and minds of the citizenry. Samia and the executives can't do it alone. In the USA, where you live, party work is done mostly by an army of unpaid volunteers! What is CPP-USA doing to help CPP-Ghana? Your CPP-USA Yahoo website is hardly functioning!Please think of how you all can help CPP-Ghana in whatever practical way. Donations of computers, office supplies or the money to purchase these in Ghana. Can you guys devote one of your vacations in Ghana to going out to the towns and villages to campaign for CPP?
