Mr Kwarteng, I am surprised that you berate Bro' Kusi for taking his time to dismantle that befuddled Professor Amoako Baah. Even though it is obvious that Amoako-Baah is an academic illiterate, not everybody is aware of that fact. Many Ghanaians are vulnerable and they can easily be taken for a ride by anybody with a few academic credentials following their name.
We need more and more of such commentary such as Kusi's, to debunk any further negative imperialist inspired opinions which do not bode well for our interests and much-needed development.
At the very worse, it must be explained by Kusi, myself, yourself and anybody else, how come some Ghanaians still think like the Professor, in spite of all the resources that must have been spent on giving him a good education - and why in the face of obvious accomplishments by Nkrumah in just 9 years, 50 years of capitalist reverse development has only led to shame and disgrace to Ghana our dear motherland.
Bro Kusi, write more and thank you for your effort.

Isaac, tell the prof that people like him who are given access to the media easily should always present more realistic analysis of situations. Now which one of these that Nkrumah stressed on is untenable today:
1) total electrification of the country. He built akosombo, went ahead to star building the bui, he built atomic commission to provide atomic energy, he talked about solar energy and visualised how we were going to attain that. Which one is archaic? Electricity for industries? Electricity for house hold? Bui dam? Solar energy? Atomic energy?
2) He talked of industrialisation. Is it archaic. Can government still develop some industries? What people fail to explain is that Nkrumah did not prevent any private sector person to set up a viable industry. Valco was private and when you check the literature you will know that the arrangement with valco was one of the first freezone in the world. Countries like china , taiwan, malaysia, korea have used indutrial cities to develop their nations and they still continue to use them. Kwame Nkrumas industrial city of Tema preceeded those of these countries. Is the development of industrial cities archaic? Tema is now a junkyard. When people say we should revisit Nkruma, s programme it is not that we should proclaim ourselves socialists. The mistake Nkrumah made was to say that he was a socialist when indeed he did not mean it. That is why he turned it to be Nkrumaism whhich is just self reliance. Russia in those days did not consider Nkruma as a socialist. When you go to Patrice Lummumba university you will find a bust of all socialist heads. Nkrumah is not there! We have failed as a natin to develop the programmes of Nkrumah and we are worse fo it.
3) when Nkrumah said education wad important and wanted to ensure drastic reduction of iletracy is it archaic. His fee free education is it archaic.Our 1992 constitution after so many years of Nkrumah is talking of free education. Now our political parties are vying with each other for the claim of bringing free education. But look at Nkrumah he said education was important and what did he do:
A) free primary education
B) pupil teacher system-accelerated training to make available teachers for the large intake
C) establishment of Cape Vars to train proffesiona teachers for the tertiary level
D) established a lot of training colleges to train professional teachers for the primary levels. Note that the pupil teacher system was just a gab bridginng
E) established many secondary schools all over the country to make secondary education accessible to anybody anywhere in the country.
F) to establish our scientific capabilities he established KNUST. Please read his speaching on the launching of Atomic Energy Commision and also speaches connected to the development of KNUST you will realise real visions which are practicable and relevant today
Mr Professor do you see a coprehensive approach towards nation building? Nkrumaists are not lazy rather Ghanaian intellectuals such as you are bereft of deep thinking and quite perverse. After so many years we went to china for a loan to build the bui dam.
Nkrumah will remain relevant all the time to the discerning intellectuals.

Isn't it interesting for the writer of this article with his anti west and bashing to choose to live in Bronx NY,USA?
Each time i hear or read the likes of you and the contributors to your article,the only conclusion i draw is,can Ghana ever make any progress with you in our midst?
Nkrumah may be your hero but it shouldn't take a genius to work out who have created the long suffering of the people of Ghana and the appalling conditions we live in.
The man you people hail as a messiah bankrupted our country with his communist/socialist ideas of reckless spending,reign of terror,over ambitious plan to rule Africa just to mention a few of his stupid ideas and the country hasn't been able to recover from.
We keep hearing of so called achievements of Nkrumah but what you fail to realise is, the population of Ghana after independence was less than seven million and have we had a leader of vision who could read through the future,our country would have been transformed based on what was left behind by colonial masters.
The professor is right for you Nkrumahists lack vision and are full of envy, tribalism,hate, enemy of success and loose talkers.
You keep bashing and describing some people as slave imperialists,traitors,while attacking the west and yet you choose not to live in Ghana,Russia,North Korea or any communist/Socialist country.Isn't that silly and don't forget from time immoral,you lots keep bashing and blaming the west and yet you run to them begging for aids and other assistance.
Socialism/communism is a con meant to deceive the people to hinder progress and achievements.
The only way forward especially for we in Ghana(Africa)is to seek to work in partnership other than the stupid confrontations and blame games you're keen of.
Here we are in the 21st century and Ghana hasn't made any impact or head way and yet you keep raining insults on rational people who dare speak the truth.
Out of the fifty seven years after independence the Danquah,Busia,Dombo traditionalist have ruled a combined of eleven and half years.The rest have been wasted by Nkrumah and his followers,Acheampong,Liman,Rawlings,Atta Mils and Mahama with their reign of envy and hate.
Isaac Kusi,Kwabena Ohemeng and the likes of you stop disturbing our peace for you don't make sense bashing the west and those who believe in their philosophy while you continue to live in those countries and enjoy the best life has to offer.

Yaw, thank you for your comment. I always feel that it is a big curse to be called a Ghanaian. Educated people still praising Nkrumah as a visionary leader to me is preposterous. During those days when I was in the Commonwealth hall with people like Kwamena Ahwoi, Kojo Yanka, etc. they used to wear slippers to lectures. Where are they now? Our great vice-chancellor, Kwapong always lamented that it would be a complete waste of time and resources to educate a bunch of liars, opportunists and hero worshipers who disguised themselves as socialists. That is what we have now. All those comrades on the forum are living on the white man's world yet they bash at the white man. All the woes that have engulfed the Ghanaian populace started from Nkrumah. His government set us back to 100 years. Right now, it is only Akuffo Addo, Bawumia, Frimpong Boateng etc, who can salvage the country. If only Mahama would not buy the people in order win the next election. Nkrumah used to buy people to win elections. According to my political science professor, Kweku Folson, Nkrumah distributed thousands of ordinary bicycles to Ewes who voted overwhelmingly towards the plebiscite, even though they hated it. God bless you, Yaw.

Kofi, chill out. You failed to refute what I have said about Nkrumah and the retrogressive ideology that he pursued before his ouster. Nkrumah could have done everything for Ghana but don't forget that people lost their inalienable civil liberties under him. He had no vision to know that his ideology was not going to last after squandering millions of money to promulgate it. Today, Russia which used to be the bastion of socialism is capitalist. Kofi, realistically speaking, would you prefer North Korea to South Korea? People must be grateful to Ewes because of KOTOKA. He sacrificed his life to redeem Ghana from the clutches of dictatorship. In my last post, I alluded to both Kwamena Ahwoi and Kojo Yankah because they are successful in life. They became capitalist after they veered off their socialist tendencies. We need to do away with insults, come together as one people and think progressively before success can be attained. Please, try to be civil.

Yaw,
You are very right. I worked in two of those Nkrumah factories and a Commission too, as a student. They were all moribund. They imported everything from inputs to the MD's waste paper basket, and had all been set up as "jobs for the boys!"
With Ghana's population of 6.5 million at independence and because our neighbours were not buying from us because of our "paa paa", those factories were not making enough money to pay their own salaries, let alone making profit for the majority shareholder, the Government of Ghana.
By the time of the coup of 1966, the workers of some of those organisations, GNCC, Workers' Brigade, GIHOC, etc, had not been paid for months. Some of the managers were selling spare parts and furniture from their organisations, to buy food for their families.
It is the children of those people who come to this forum to spew out nonesense. It is good that nobody has written the biographies of those organisations, otherwise the whole world would know who their fathers really were!

Isaac,while not tagging Nkrumahists as lazy thinkers,the socialism mindset is what i think will not enrich Ghana.
Dr. Nkrumah was a visionary leader,undoubtedly.However,his mistakes were the deviation from the capitalist economic structure inherited from the British government and the introduction of dictatorship and human rights abuses in Ghana.
If Dr. Nkrumah had teamed up with Dr.Danquah to propagate capitalism and democracy in Ghana,we will be telling an enviable socioeconomic story as part of Ghana's biography.
The danger of the socialism experiment was creating the wrong impression that
the Ghanaian should be depend on the government for employment,housing and, in fact, everything. Hence the corruption which has permeated into the fabric of the Ghanaian society.
The most inefficient set-up on the planet are situations where the government is involved as opposed to the individual.In this regard,i will always vie for a government to create conducive environments for the individual to thrive.
Imagine all the GIHOC conglomerate had been owned by individual Ghanaians,we would not have liquidated them.
If the public industries and administrative set-ups are enriching the managers through glorified stealing and pilfering,is there any justification to continue proliferating public entities and increase the avenues for corrupt practices?
If you know how much it costs before oil is found in commercial quantities,you will not suggest that Ghana goes all alone without any partnership to syndicate resources,especially when the country is conspicuously broke and choking under indiscriminate borrowing.
Ghana cannot develop meaningfully without overemphasizing capitalism.I am glad that you live in Boston.
If we can be honest to ourselves and go back to our birth as a capitalist nation with a capitalist economy and deliver the country to the capitalist-oriented NPP for a considerable amount of years so we can completely extricate ourselves from the predominantly socialist economy,we can be prosperous.

Have you gone to South or North Korea before? May be not. If you have gone to these countries, you will not sing for Nkrumah. All what you said, which of the materials used to built those things Nkrumah did was made in Ghana. Whilst Nkrumah was using Ghana money in politics South Korea was building schools with good science laboratory and importing white teachers from Briton America and the rest to teach in their schools. Now south Koreas produce most of their needs in their country whilst Ghana import everything. This is the diffirencs between a good leader or a visionary leader and a bad leader. When you compare the per capital of Ghana to that of south Korea at that time you will admit that Nkrumah was a bad le4ader period.

Those of you bashing the Prof did not take time to analyse his comments about Nkrumah. We as a nation are hero worshippers and therefore feel offended any time something unpalatable is said about our hero. The Prof never said Ukrumah was not a great man. Far from that. What he said was that times have changed and that followers of Nkrumah should move on with the changing times. He went on to say that Nkrumah as a great leader would have changed his approach of doing things if he were alive and therefore followers of Nkrumah are lazy thinkers. His attack was not on Nkrumah per se but his followers who are refusing to follow the wind of change blowing across the globe. Kusi and co should have analysed his comments carefully before attacking him. Too much hero worshipping in Ghana is dividing us.

I am not hero worshipping. I am talking about the plans the hero set up. If we had followed through would have made Ghana a far better place than it is now. So I am saying let's go back to those plans. For example during Dr. Nkrumah's time education was not only free but it was compulsory. If you were out of school for a day your parents had to explain. And people said that was dictatorship. Guess what we attained the highest literacy rate in Africa. Mayor Giuliani of New York introduced the same measures. If you were found loitering during school hours the police would arrest you and your parents had to pick you up from the precint. Now the two major political parties are talking about free school education. We had sidetracked since Nkrumah was overthrown in 1966. Can you imagine the impact for all these years?
