    Idiot, Nkrumah never applied for an IMF or World Bank loan. The thief,unpatriotic Afrifa,Busia governments started it.

  • Yaw Yeboah 9 months ago

    From your narrative Ghana first went to the IMF AFTER the treacherous overthrow of Nkrumah, whose REFUSAL to go to the IMF was the very reason for the CIA overthrow of his regime.
