    The effitu rat waved goodbye to the Osagyefo and flew straight to Accra and offered his services to the new government. That's how the people of Ghana are, disloyal and unscrupulous!

    The revelations from this memoir further make his betrayal unforgivable. No leader should ever surround themselves with such hypocrites.

    As for Nkrumah, my Grandfather was one of his strongest supporters but my father who was very much educated then never supported him for reasons that were justifiable. Nkrumah brought about his own overthrow.

    People will call this betrayal. But I think self preservation would be appropriate. Why should he come and defend someone, who is sleeping comfortably somewhere? Do you think the coup plotters and their financiers would have ...

  • NKRUMAH HAD THE MISFORTUNE OF BEING SURROUNDED BY TRAITORS AND TREACHEROUS PEOPLE 2 weeks ago

    Nkrumah was surrounded by self-seeking traitors who had no loyalty towards Ghana.Most of these sell-outs came predominantly from certain tribes in Ghana. We have to ask if things are any different today.
