    As far as I'm concerned the best leader Ghana have had after Nkrumah is I.K. Acheampong but as you rightly said, no one mentions his name. Compare him to all the leaders that we've had in the 4th Republic and the evidence is ...

    Acheampong help ruin our resources.

    If he did nothing, why did Fred Akuffo got him house arrest? Where did the famous "Yentua" came from?

    **Where did the famous "Yentua" come from.

  • Ann 1 year ago

    Busia, Akuffo-Addo's uncle, borrowed more in two years than Nkrumah had in nine. So the General said "Yentua!" Let Busia and his crew pay it back, not the citizens who gained nothing from his borrowing.

    You're an idiot, did someone invited your parents to come to Accra and born you in Accra ? If nobody knows about your parents anymore in your village that's a problem ? Who cares about dead body. Nonsense.

    Frankie, what made the very corrupt Acheampong "one of the greatest leaders?"

    Acheampong was one of the most corrupt leaders of all time, just like his successors we have today.
