Kwame Okoampa, when are you going to start being humble enough to acknowledge that there are well- educated and seriously accomplished academics in Ghana who don't bother to trumpet their stupendous accomplishemnts like you are wont to do at the least opprtunity?

It is always obvious from some of the postings(the articulation of ideas, structure, cogency of the points they make in concise sentences/paragraphs devoid of unnecessary and superflous bombast etc) that they are learned.

Why can't you emulate such writing style...? The worst of your mannerisms is your unfettered hatred for someone like JJ Rawlings and his party, the NDC. A PHD holder should be able to rid himself and writings of hatred and bombast.. it will never take your PHD away from you.... what a pity you don't you are not even modest enough to take sound advice from even well-meaning people!

in our country the voice of reason can not be heard as the decision makers , stakeholders and politics are so polarized through tribalism and other mud slinging propaganda that the truth and common sense have become irrelevant . the ministry of agric is notorious for the the fact that the minister and chief director there are the most corrupt callous characters in the govt today. every nation that has achieved development has put in checks and balances that rectify mistakes or evil tendencies , our leaders first make sure these checks and balances are eliminated whether by declaring president for life or one party states like nkrumah did or by putting strange immunity or indemnity clauses in the constitution like rawlings did. if there is no accountability there can be responsibility and a vicious circle of corruption , disunity and open crimes are committed but none of this ruling oligarchy will ever be made to pay for their atrocities. our country and her citizens produce tens of billions but poverty is the daily lot of most of our citizens as the system of divide and rule has been perfected , our gold and other natural resources leave the country but no a single dollar comes back to benefit our people , our diaspora of over 10 to 15 million is not involved in development rather when they come they are financially raped by all from their own relatives with ridiculous demands for electronic gadgets and school fees to the state organized mafia institutions with tribally biased evil agendas . a nation not unified or focused on matters of national importance are doomed to failure . the quiet majority are being exploited and raped on a daily basis but due to the govt sponsored propaganda and lies are unable to see things clearly and act . yes we have a hopeless depressing future ahead due to our own laziness , non action and cowardice of thought. nobody is interested in investigating the truth for themselves or even questioning the most obvious crimes. jj has proclaimed k4 a corrupt individual yet after superpowers investigated they rewarded him by appointing him special envoy , jj will not go to jail for his false declaration rather in the madness and with his tribal homogenous support will be declared a hero and not for inciting hatred against another leader who will most likely end up in a pool of blood like mills .the tragedy is far from over as mahama and his lies only continue this trend , mr all talk and no action is busy taking us on another jolly ride to despair and hopelessness . the only solution is a cleansing war or revolution which will ensure that the country is divided up so we all get a fresh start , no point in fixing whats too broken to repair

Cameron Duodu, one of the best Journalists our nation has ever produced, confirmed recently that yes it was true that President Nkrumah did not meet Nelson Mandela during a visit by Mandela to Accra. You can call it a snub, if you wish. What all those talking about this episode, including our learned Professor, are not telling Ghanaweb readers is the struggle that was going on in the anti-apartheid movement then by then was a question of both strategy and tactics as to how to respond to the brutal apartheid regime. The PAC was then a more radical group that, although not as formidable as the ANC, had advocated armed struggle and voilence. A position that the ANC was late to come to. I suspect Nkrumah preferred the position of the PAC then to that of the ANC. Both sides were courting international support for their approach in the anti-apartheid struggle. History vindicated the PAC's posotion when the ANC eventually adopted and intensified armed struggle and voilence after Nelson Mandela's arrest, trial and imprisonment. Interesting, the CIA tipped off the SA apartheid authorities when Mandela was secretly trying to leave SA for Accra, Ghana to attend a meeting called by Nkrumah for leaders of those countries then engaged in the liberation struggles all over Africa, especially those in the Sothern part of Africa. It was such meetings and other suport being given by Nkrumah that earned him a label by the West as a terrorist.

To use one incident to denegrate the memory of one of African greatest leaders (I guess for pure partisan political reasons) is not just unfortunate, it is misuse of historical facts.

By the way, do Ghanaweb readers know that PHILTY McNASTY is Okoampah-Ahoofe? Just read how the so-called McNASTY writes.

It seems it was lost on you that the BBC simply carried out a poll of its African Service listeners and it was those listeners who chose Nkrumah as the African Man of the Millennium. It wasn't the BBC bosses who did that from their well-padded offices. So whether you like it or not, some Africans had already chosen Nkrumah above Mandela as the Man with the Vision for Africa of the future! And, by jove, posterity shall prove those pollsters right!

Mandela did nothing spectacular which Nkrumah himself, followed by Kenyatta and other independence leaders hadn't done before him: come out of prison and reconcile with your white gaolers! Mugabe even killed over 20,000 Shonas while the whites applauded so that they could retain their stranglehood on the lands they seized without compensation! It was only when he turned on them cos Britain reneged on paying the compensation to the whites for any land taken back that he became a demon to the white world.

As for Mandela, what vision did he even championed for his own people beyond ending Apartheid, for which he became a mere symbol? S. Africa was already an independent country, btw. The mass of the people? ANC top dogs like Ramaphosa becoming billionaires while the mass of the people wallow in eternal poverty in shacks? They pay pittance to the black miners compared to white miners not only in S. Africa but in Canada, Australia, USA, etc., etc., And they complain of profits falling and mines not being economical if a few $100s are slapped on their meager wages! The Inequality and non-Reprocity continues in the era of Global Apartheid, thanks to the likes of Mandela who play the role of the Buthelezis of the Global Apartheid Era. The Ghost of Franz Fanon and Nkrumah are awake and lurking around the corner to begin haunting those who exploit the mass of Africans, Blacks and whites or Chinese! I think I should make this a full article and a rejoinder to the crap being said about Nkrumah!

Nkrumah opened the borders of Ghana to all Africans, gave scholarships to even S. African refugees and taught Ghanaians and Africans to think in pan-African terms and be proud of their African Personality. And when JB sang, Say it loud! I am Black and Proud, the whole [black] world knew where that inspiration came from.

Under Mandela, xenophobia festered against fellow Africans from even southern Africa countries which harboured tens of 1000s of S. African refugees and suffered tens of billions of damages caused by Apartheid S. Africa through wars, sabotages, adhering to the embargo, etc., etc . His focus was on S. Africa only. He refused to supply troops for the UN Peace mission in even Rwanda but supplied arms to the genocidal Hutu regime.

You want to know more why the BBC listeners chose Nkrumah over Mandela?

Hello,

Here is an interesting case of how some Europeans continue to portray their immigration to other peoples' lands as positive for those people, even under conditions quite "hazardous" to the hosts; while portraying that of others, Africans in particular, in negative terms, and must be stopped!

A bit of history would have exposed the causes of abject, masspoverty in the Southern and Central Africa as very much linked to the activities of European and Arab slave merchants, colonists and settlers, etc, and, of course, the African collaborators of all kinds, (willingly or compelled), that make those activities possible. I see no great change in attitudes among sections of those European, Arab and African beneficiaries from that pernicious system established on the continent since the C18th, C19th and early part of this century. We only have increasing sophistication to cover the more brazen nature of the continuing impoverishment of Africa. This new trek can be classified under that new form of abuse.

I am making all this comments because of your recent assignment for the S. African government.

I am sorry my opinion seems dour but I can't pretend I like what I see and hear, just like most Africans who feign their feelings before Europeans in order to retain perceived favours. That, in itself, is part of the African problem: sycophants and praise-singers!

Regards.

Andy

S. African Whites Trek North for New Lands

By Judith Matloff, Staff writer
Pretoria, South Africa

Thousands of conservative South Africa farmers, having given up their dream of a separate white homeland, are planning a trek to formerly hostile neighboring black countries to find new fields to till in a modern era of African cooperation.
The pioneering spirit is like that of their forefathers, the hardy Dutch-descended Boer (farmer) settlers, who for 150 years in the 1700s and 1800s wandered from southern Cape to South Africa's Interior to find new territory.

Their search for more grazing lands, cultural self-determination, and establishment of independent republics brought them into conflict with local black tribes and the British Empire. That clash resulted in the notorious 1899-1902 Boer War. The struggle for afrikaner cultural identity and survival is marked by various 'Voortrekker' monuments erected across the vast country.
But these modern-day settlers travel in jeeps and on airplanes instead of on ox wagons, armed with seeds and tractors instead of guns.

Having once preached civil war rather than toleration black majority rule, the fiercely independent Afrikaner farmers have accepted the end of apartheid after last year's democratic elections.
Greener grass?

A drought in much of their traditional farming area is spurring them to take advantage of restored relations with nearby countries to seek highly fertile cheap land to farm for their mutual benefit.

The farmers, under the leadership of the Afrikaner-dominated Agricultural Unions of the Transvaal and Orange Free States, are involved in talks with at least 10 other African countries about signing deals to cultivate land and set up self-sufficient communities with their own schools.

[A map of Sub-Saharan Africa is shown with the following countries shaded as "African nations being considered for white Afrikaner communities": Angola, Cameroon, Congo, Ethiopia, Gabon, Malawi, Mozambique, Tanzania, Uganda, Zaire, and Zambia].

With the reputation of being some of the most skilled and hardy farmers in the continent, they argue they can bring expertise to the rest of the region.

"We are opting for development, not conflict," said Gen. Constand Viljoen, a leading right-wing parliamentarian and cattle farmer who has been negotiating on behalf of the farmers.

General Viljoen headed the military in the 1980s when South Africa was destabilizing the neighboring socialist states of Angola and Mozambique and trying to stamp out the African National Congress.

Before last April's first all-race elections, Viljoen and his supporters threatened civil war if demands for a separate state were not granted. But now as a gentlemanly, silver-haired legislator, he is spearheading a new phase of reconciliation in close cooperation with President Nelson Mandela.

Viljoen and the agricultural unions have enlisted the help of Mr. mandela's ANC-dominated government to seek government-to-government deals for 2,000 to 5,000 interested farmers to buy or lease land in nearby countries.

Mandela and his government are committed to the development of poorer neighboring states, which look to the regional powerhouse South Africa for help. The poor conditions in those countries are causing a huge flood of illegal immigrants into South Africa.

The initiative, begun a year ago, has so far seen cooperation between Mandela and his Mozambican counterpart Joaquim Chissano in March. "They signed a letter of intent in which South African farmers would help rebuild Mozambique's war-shattered economy in return for use of land on preferential terms.
Working on a formula Viljoen sees the agreement as a formula for other countries – the trekkers would settle their own communities, building their own Afrikaner language schools, and making their own safety arrangements.
In return, they would train local farmers and create separate schools for them.

Viljoen visited Mozambique earlier this month on behalf of South Africa's government to hone details. Soon to follow is a team of largely Afrikaaner experts on game and conservation, forestry, livestock, grain, fruit, and cotton. The same delegation plans to visit other countries to assess further possibilities.

So far, discussions have begun with Zambia, Tanzania, and Uganda.

Zaire's President Mobutu Sese Seko invited a delegation of South African farmers to visit his residence in Gbadolite in March. A second visit is under way not to investigate the potential food-producing projects in the Shaba mining province.

Contact has also been make with Malawi, Congo, Gabon, and Angola, while Cameroon and Ethiopia have expressed interest as well, says Dries Bruwer, president of the Transvaal Agricultural Union. "We are seeking government-to-government deals and have the full support of President Mandela," he says.

The main thing holding the farmers back is the bulky bureaucracy and political instability in many of the countries concerned, he said.

How can this idiot called Okoampa-Ahoofe distinguish one from the other? Simple: Mandela was an Africanist who was seeking to free, exclusively, black South Africans from white domination. Nkrumah, on the other hand, was a pan-Africanist who sought the freedom of the black race from white annihilation, so to speak, all round Africa and beyond. The former fought to replace the managing of the econ-political system of South Africa with black bourgeois, at the expense of the downtrodden black majority; while the latter, sought the transfer of power from the capitalist whites to the oppressed Africans to manage their own affairs. Thus, whether Nkrumah did receive Mandela and his delegation or not is neither here or there. The two freedom fighters had different agenda, which seems to complement each other, but in reality different from each other. The fact of the matter was that Nkrumah was not well - due to the assassination attempt on his life which caused him injuries - when Mandela and co. arrived in Ghana. In any case, it wouldn't have augured well for the minds of the South African delegation, if they had met Nkrumah in a depressing situation. The faculty of his mind couldn't be alert enough to engage in valuable discussions or offer advice.

Why a Ghanaian like Dr. Amuah will go all the way and destroy a great leader like Kwame Nkrumah. Dr. Amuah have you soon forgotten the great works of Dr. Nkrumah, The man who fought selfless for freedom of Ghana and the whole Africa. Dr. Amuah should know these, that Nkrumah's vision and ideas are enormous than Mandela. But l need not to judge Mandela nor Nkrumah. What's important is that both leaders did their best for their country and Africa race. We need to cherished and be grateful to these two leaders.
Dr. Amuah come out and do something for the people of Ghana or Africa. And stop destroying Dr. Nkrumah image. You are just rallying around the Mandela's for cheap popularity. Shame on you.

A good and a perpetual 'name' is never accomplished on cheap and fake platform. That was the "modus operandi" of your hero and as such his name died with him. As a PhD holder and a teacher of many years experience, you've sadly not learnt any lesson from your uncle's predicaments. Your interpretation of facts in a revenge for your uncle would carry you nowhere except seeing your life unfulfilled when your end comes. This is because there was nothing to warrant a revenge. Obama nor the Western nations cannot write Kwame Nkrumah's history. They've tried and they witnessed the results. Mandela did what he could to liberate South Africa but one needs not a PhD degree in a African Political History to appreciate Kwame Nkrumah's contribution to the African liberation struggle. Kwame Nkrumah was not a show boy as you claim nether was he even a mere liberator of Ghana. He was something much more bigger. He was a body of positive and progressive ideas and ideals. Which of your writings can be compelled to "Africa must Unite" let alone "Neocolonialism: The Stage of Imperialism" in spite of the fact that you've spent all your time in classroom. As a human being you have the ability to devote your energy positively to achieve a height that can even redeem the image of your uncle and I advice you to do as such.

This is a petty claim like the entire article. This matter of Nkrumah not meeting Mandela has been adequately discussed a few weeks back. You must still write an article on it because of your pathological need to write articles every day.

Publishing one's own books these days is not an achievement. Rather, it shows that none of the major book publishers find your books worthy enough to invest money in. Publishing your own books means you pay for them yourself and often lose money on them. No major and well-known author does that!

Oh, btw, how many of your books are on the WASSCE syllabus? I saw the recent lists and there were some books that aren't that good.

even if story is true,why do you find it important to write a whole article about it weeks after it stopped being an issue. Tambo's presence at the Nkrumah event clearly shows the ANC still has great respect for the greatest african. Nkrumah may have had his strategy wrong on one occassion but it is common knowledge that no one did more for the freedom fighters in africa than Nkrumah. the truth is, one of the allegations made by the UP busia tradition was Nkrumah spent too much of our money on freedom fighters across the continent.
Have you conveniently forgotten busia supported apartheid south africa. my friend, focus on exposing the current useless party we have in power, Nkrumah is just too big for a small fry like you

Okoampa your hatred of Osagyefo Dr. Kwame Nkrumah also portrays what an ingrate you are! Your ability to write in English, (very poorly mind), is as a result of that great man's far reaching socio-economic investment in your generation. The idolisation of Mandela is a triumph of the white man's PR and spin machine, which you have bought into. It is futile to even compare the two men. Osagyefo Dr. Kwame Nkrumah is the foremost African leader who gave us our dignity and self-respect back. Mandela prevented bloodshed and saved white people's skins, but did absolutely nothing else for Africans. Nkrumah will never die! Choke on that!

Reasons that this Kwame Okoampa-Ahoofe finds it difficult to say what he wishes to say in readable written English, he goes about in cicles with loaded English words, and ends up without saying a sensible thing

- he goes about saying, and i quote: "the fact of the matter"; whereas there is no fact about an arguable matter

- i educate him to say that, what is a fact about not arguable matter is that Mandela does not measure up to Nkrumah; and to say the contrary is sheer foolishness

- this semi-educated Kwame Okoampa-Ahoofe is ignorant; same as his blood relatives late UP terrorist Akim JB Danquah and, halfwit NPP Akim Akufo Ado who lost the recent presidential election but went to see the superior Judges with his tail between his legs with stupidities; and expected them to INSTALL him as President of Kwame Nkrumah Ghana in place of ELECTED Mahama

Not taking anything from Mandela, Mandela's feet cannot fit Nkrumah's shoes and, NO MAN'S feet, ... past, present or future, had or will ever fit the shoes of Kwame Nkrumah.

And if you do not know, Nkrumah was also jailed for fighting to free his people and country!

Okoampa-Ahoofe it’s about time you realize ghanaweb where you practice your creative writing skills for some of your fans with access to the internet is not the captive audiences you and Sir John do get Temple University. At Temple U there are mostly Americans some of who could give a damn about African history and or its politics. Yes you have trooped Sir John and others to provide your brand of revisionist Ghanaian history to some but that will not sell on ghanaweb as peer-review lectures.
Danquah and Busia were unfortunate to have met a better Ghanaian in Nkrumah during their time and neither you nor Sir Johns of the world can make your relatives or tribesmen any bigger or better than their master Nkrumah. Live with it but fighting history will not do. Yes you've had you doctorate degree but in the scheme of things your degree has as much relevance in the lives of Ghanaians today as your Danquah and Busia was to Ghanaians then.

It very unfair to vilify reported Nkrumah's attitude towards Mandela without fairly considering the circumstances around the incident. It must be acknowledged that Mandela probably deserved better attention from Nkrumah but the tenor of the ongoing continental struggle against the Colonialists did douse Nkrumah's preference for Mandela in the fight against Apartheid.

We should not be blindsided or sideswiped by those avowed lifetime enemies of Nkrumah who can never concede a single good deed to the late Ghanaian leader to believe that this issue somehow diminished Nkrumah's contribution to end Apartheid.

Meanwhile, these very people who crave more for sinking Nkrumah's image into an abyss than tell the truth around our historical events would rather have no one speak of Busia's intransigence in supporting sanctions against the Apartheid Government in South Africa. Busia kowtowed to the Western Governments supporting Apartheid to be part of their co-opted African group that wanted to have normal relations with the Apartheid Afrikaaner regime, to the detriment of the unified purpose all the African Freedom Fighters of Azania, South Africa.

While Nkrumah might not have favored Mandela over the other South African Liberators, he never relented in his efforts to help South Africans break free. He would not deny the imprisoned Liberators his calls to set them free.

All Nkrumah wanted was a more organized, concerted, militarized opposition to the brutal Apartheid regime that had sought an alliance with the similar racist and violent Ian Smith regime in Southern Rhodesia, now Zimbabwe.

I don't think even Mandela himself bore Nkrumah any deep-seated grudge for that slight miscalculation of Nkrumah's. After all, the two main factions of Liberators later fused to offer a joint force that won their freedom. To think that without any military struggle Mandela could have still been freed is a palpable lie. It was the military incursions of the uniformed African Freedom Fighters and the imposition if sanctions that softened De Clerk's grip on South Africa. He wisely acted the way he did to end Apartheid because he saw an increasing might of the ANC that raised the risk of total bloodbath possibly involving the sisterly African Nations.

We need to keep the History straight and not twist it to make any ideological side look better than it deserves.

Long Live Ghana!!!

you brain dead NDC lying propagandists will stoop low to spew any rubbish. The fact that Busia preferred dialogue and negotiations with the Apartheid practitioners to end that inhuman system doesn't mean he supported them. If your twisted logic holds true, you will also infer that Kenneth Kaunda of Zambia and even Nelson Mandela supported the apartheid system, and Martin Luther King supported segregation in the US just because they all preferred dialogue at some points in their struggles instead of violence. It was your tin god who was rather on the wrong side of history and not Busia.

Cameron Duodu, one of the best Journalists our nation has ever produced, confirmed recently that yes it was true that President Nkrumah did not meet Nelson Mandela during a visit by Mandela to Accra. You can call it a snub, if you wish. What all those talking about this episode, including our learned Professor, are not telling Ghanaweb readers is the struggle that was going on in the anti-apartheid movement by then was a question of both strategy and tactics as to how to respond to the brutal apartheid regime. The PAC was then a more radical group that, although not as formidable as the ANC, had advocated armed struggle and voilence. A position that the ANC was late to come to. I suspect Nkrumah preferred the position of the PAC then to that of the ANC. Both sides were courting international support for their approach in the anti-apartheid struggle. History vindicated the PAC's position when the ANC eventually adopted and intensified armed struggle and voilence after Nelson Mandela's arrest, trial and imprisonment. Interestingly, the CIA tipped off the SA apartheid authorities when Mandela was secretly trying to leave SA for Accra, Ghana to attend a meeting called by Nkrumah for leaders of those countries then engaged in the liberation struggles all over Africa, especially those in the Sothern part of Africa. It was such meetings and other suport being given by Nkrumah that earned him a label by the West as a terrorist.

To use one incident to denegrate the memory of one of African greatest leaders (I guess for pure partisan political reasons) is not just unfortunate, it is misuse of historical facts.

By the way, do Ghanaweb readers know that PHILTY McNASTY is Okoampah-Ahoofe? Just read how the so-called McNASTY writes.

Prof ., I never made or implied any such comparison of the intellect of Busia's and Nkrumah's. I only meant to show that even the most favored could falter sometimes, and that momentary disappointment does not necessarily define the person's ultimate success.

I am no fanatic of any particular leader. I prefer appraising our leaders from the point of view of our collective interests and whatever their immediate concerns and motivations were at the time of making crucial decisions.

I am no Historian as certified by formal Academic prowess or qualification. But like any other discerning adult, I have enough acumen to learn historical facts from appropriate sources, including personal life observations, and to acknowledge that many a declared Historian have attempted to modify Historical records to suit their parochial interests. So, you may be more widely read in global History than I am but still not be the exclusive repository of accurate Historical facts.

The old man was seriously sick at the time Mr Mandela visited Ghana. Not only that but before he came to Ghana he was communicating with his lawyer friends ( his learned friend) most of whom were enemies to Osagyefo. I used to work at the Greater London Council, in London between 1984 - 1989 and I met Mr Oliver Tambo and a few of the South African freedom fighters.At that time only a few Africans used to work at the GLC. I also met Boye Moses the gentle Ghanaian who was caged by the Ghanaian National Redemption Council and paraded in the street of Ghana like a criminal.I met Mr Kofi Batsa and my Dad's friend Mr Kweku Boateng. . God of Abraham and Ghana please come to our aid.
