QUOTE KWAME NKRUMAH: "The battlefield is not the only place where men can demonstarate their patriotism and rise to great heights. The task which we are about to engage upon is no less herioc than war, for it is a struggle against poverty and want, backwardness and disease, illiteracy and ignorance. Our ultimate victory will bring greater satisfaction and well-being to all of us".
