Eeiiii, Ahofe where have you been all this time? Hmmmmmmm, of course you need a retreat after you've been publicly exposed for your lies and distortion of political history of Ghana and your hatred for the son of Ghana, the TRUE son of Africa, Osagyefo Dr Kwame Nkrumah. Tell us why your uncle, Joseph Boakye Danquah, the murderer had never succeeded in all his three successive attempts to win an election to become an MP. He was well beaten hands down by Aron Ofori Atta. Keep up with your lies Ahofe. My regards to the village Community College.

The NPP's severely retarded evil hate monger and ignorant false propaganda peddler Professsor Luna-Tic Kwasia Okoampa-Ahoofool is always shamelessly trying to twist historical facts in his demented quest to rewrite Ghana's history. Danquah did not groom Nkrumah, you ignorant moron and serial lying buffoon. Nkrumah honed his political craft during his years in the USA prior to his move to the Britain where he came into contact with Danquah and other Pan-African scholars agitating for freedom for their countries. Danquah and others who would later form th UP party of Ghana were impressed with Nkrumah's knowleage and burning fire for reedom for the Gold Coast, and invited him to join their organization. Nkrumah never need grooming from anyone.

Nkrumah's vision and knowledge of the political landscape was soon revealed when these freedom fighters returned to the Gold Coast to campaign for independence. The Danquahs and Ofori Attas and others were mainly from royal households in the Eastern Region, and soon resented the mounting popularity of the non-royal Nkrumah.

After realiz=ing that the Danquahs and Offori-Attas of the UP were not wanting immediate indepence for the Gold Coast, Nkrumah broke away and with other citizens, formed what was to become the CPP. The CPP and Nkrumah wanted independence "now", while Danquah and the UP claimed the Gold Coast was not yet "ready" for independence.

Retarded Professor Luna-Tic Kwasia Okoampa-Ahoofool is a poor student of Ghana's history and a serial liar. You're better off sticking to teaching English and Journalism where you are. You may hold a PhD, but you're woefully lacking when it comes to issues of common sense and credibility.

Now they don't teach history in Ghana no more, it JB who invited Nkrumah to come and join them when they were seeking for independence. So you are right on that.

inviting is different from grooming..
to groom is to have fore-knowledge about how one trains someone to become somebody.
Inviting is (in this context) necessarily knowing how good someone already is, and calling upon him to come and strengthen a situation or an organisation.

In short, I agree that JB had good intention to call upon Nkrumah (although not enough); his primarily motive was not to establish him as a leader. Therefore to state he "groomed Nkrumah" is a false alligation.

How can Danquah groom a Pan-Africanist? Just how? Isn't that statement mind
bogling? It's like asking an Uncle Tom to groom Malcom X
Just ask yourself why Kwame left and founded his own party?

Aaaaaaah! "3ta".J.B Danquah groomed Nkrumah aaaaaah are you serious .You must be really dump. Even JB himself could not have said that abaaaah.

Nkrumah's reason for dumping ugcc was clear and is still clear in history book; it was based on ideology (you dummy). JB only invited Nkrumah knowing how good he was, not that JB somehow (from nowhere) decided to groom Nkrumah to be somewhat useful...'mmoa ns3m akwaakwa'

You really want to know Nkrumah and his aspiration before he returned to Ghana just get your hand on the document CIA had on him..And stop your super inflated ego..
It is because of some obvious lies like this that prevent people from voting for the NPP

Nkrumah, trounced the class obsessed and pompous "twat" on every occasion. JB Traitor Danquah, was a sad and sore loser just like Okoampa Ahoofe. Get a life, mate!
