President Nkrumah , on hindsight, was too soft in handling those nation wreckers and saboteurs from Asante and Kyebi . The greed and selfishness of Asante was nauseating. Nkrumah should have flushed those Asante rats down the toilets just like what Felix H. Boigney of Cote D'Ivoire did to similar riffraffs in his country .

My dear Nzema King, I beg to differ but Felix Houphuet Boigny was a total French rat! He was totally against Africa's progress. He coined the term France afrique. Meaning that France had all the power to control and virtually own Francophone Africa. He was a member of parliament in France representing his country Cote d'ivoire. So France saw such countries as constituencies and not as nations. He had a hand in some of the disturbances against Kwame Nkrumah. He personally saw to the assassination of Captain Thomas Sankara of Burkina Faso when he gifted an obroni woman to Blaise Campoare who was given orders to kill Sankara. A person who built the world's largest cathedral only for the country to enter into civil war. Such a man!!

That was his biggest flaw but we are all imperfect so let's not be hard on him. Maybe, he was forced by circumstances beyond his control. Above all. I think that Nkrumah was a lone wolf hated by traitors in his inner circle and his political enemies in the asante and akyem regions of Ghana and in the USA. The great man stood no chance and it's a miracle that achieved what he did against all these odds.

Listen sapphire, Dr Kwame Nkrumah should have fine a polite way to speak to them than telling them he would put them into jail. If you he Dr Kwame Nkrumah claim that's they would use their own money to marry many wives sit down and ask yourself how was they able to plant cocoa as farmers or how do they got the idea to unite. If you live in society and you pretend to more intelligent person than anyone without advice, sorry for my French you'll fail. Dr Kwame Nkrumah was happy listen to those fake chiefs example like the than dormaahene and Techiman hene who polluted him to divide the Ashanti region into two regions namely Bono Ahafo region. Dr Kwame Nkrumah could have listen to the chiefs across Ghana and bring togetherness rather than claiming to more intelligent than those who came together to resist the British. Now we can see how Ghana is more divided due to falsehood propaganda division.

@Darren, and, after we the Asantes have brutally colonised the Brongs etc. What improvement did our useless Kings bring to the masses. Apart from adorning themselves with tawdry and tacky gold trinkets and executing people by the bucket loads, what infrastructural development plan did any of those useless Kings had in place from 1702-1960? I mean schools, hospitals, sanitation, shelter, good drinking
water etc. None! Common sense seems to elude some of the educated fools who parade themselves here making apologies for the medieval system that benefited only a handful. Prior to Nkrumah, did any of our useless Asante Kings use any of that cocoa money to build schools?, hospitals etc? Just give us a list of them. At least name four in Asante, two in Brong and two in Ahafo?

Valid as your argument may seem, I think it is unfair to insist on system parity between western civilization and that of Africa.
To have compared a demand for Western-like education and development to what Africa had in the time period you quoted above, and totally ignoring what development meant in terms of education and all in that time period is not only anachronistic but also an exercise in selective ignorance.
Asante (and by extension Africa in general) had its own form of education and system of transmitting it.
If the Kings of the time had prevented that from running then there could be a good argument against them.
If not, then don't let us compare what we have today to what pertained then and suppose we ought to have seen same back then.

Darren, Nkrumah made it clear on not just the three occasions but several... The three occasions were when they visited him at unusual times.
It means that Asante was trying to see herself as though she were above the country of Ghana. Mind you, Nkrumah was so intelligent to understand the implications of the visits when he laid out the policy to transform the mindset of our foremost farmers and to improve their lots.
Even though Prempeh understood Nkrumah at first but he (prempeh) was only one man, and his advisers did not give good counsel. Culminating those events, was the obvious hatred hatched by Asante towards Nkrumah when Nkrumah would not allow Asante to abuse the Bono people. Coupled with the fact that the usurper, JB Danquah, also compounded the issue by deceiving Prempeh,.
Now asanteman deceives its population by saying that Nkrumah hated asanteman when it is rather the opposite that is true. This is the hypocrisy of Asante.

Every part of you and even your Ewe President is full of jealousy towards Asantes, people like you should be grateful to Asantes for been charitable and sharing, because without Asantes resources, your Ghana would have been one of the poorest countries on earth. Just recently, when your people got the information that there is going to be oil exploration and Lithium mining in your region, what did they do?, they declared independence from Ghana, because they don’t wanna share their resources with anybody. Don’t let me go against your people who are also my people because I have most my family members from your tribe and I don’t wanna be rude against them, respect others, okay?

Yes, Nkrumah insulted them. Why should he say the Ashant Cocoa Farmers will marry more if he paid them what was due them? That is very irresponsible. Cocoa farmers have been cheated in this country for far too long. Accra Sports Stadium if was built in the days of Nkrumah might have been built from cocoa money. Meanwhile when Kuffour named it after Ohene Djan the Gas were instigated by the NDC to kick against it. Kumasi Sports Stadium was named after Baba Yaara at the same period but the Ashantis never objected to it. Today the Ada's are up in arms for government extracting salt in commercial quantities in their side of the sea. They don't agree that, the state should own part of the revenue from the salt extraction. They have forgotten that the road from Accra to Ada was not financed from money from salt. They don't know that their hospitals and schools were built from money realized from other minerals and coacoa obtained from other parts of Ghana. All these misunderstandings are engineered by the NDC.

Did Nkrumah set up any education funds to help cocoa farmers. Look at the poor state of cocoa farmers in Ghana now. Ghana never had rail line north to south but he gave 6 million pounds to build rail line from Conakry to kankan in guinea. The average and mindless Ghanaian will not understand Asantefo, they call rot in hell. Asanteman was before Ghana.

Are u alright upstairs? I don't think so. Visit the psychiatrist hospital and get yourself examined.
Ghanaweb is either running out of stories or is trying to inflame ethnic passions.This story was reported on some days ago with a different heading.This website is proving to be unprofessional
That was the first thing I thought of. Why the repetition? Is it to serve a particular purpose of what.
The repetition is good, I did not see the first one
