I agree with the former MP Lucy Anin. The state housing project was one heck of a vision by Dr. Nkrumah. Not until our housing problem is solved, corruption in our public sector will not cease.

Nkrumah was deposed by the West because the West wanted to turn our country into a market for their products. The West have achieved their objective because today, Ghanaians are largely engaged in distribution of imported goods from the West and this is a far cry from the production-based created during Nkrumah's era of "WORK AND HAPPINESS".
It is not true that Nkrumah was deposed because because as the West claimed,he was a dictator. The West have succeeded in turning Ghana into a neo-colonial state manipulating our timid leaders and DICTATING the pace of our "under-development".
We have missed the chance of developing; under the current situation, THE REAL DICTATORS ARE THE WEST.

I just want to ask whether Ghana and for that matter Africa has already achieved its Renaissance? Have we? Are we yet to? Or leaders abandon the fight for internal political rangling in their respective countries?

CORPORAL AFRIFA, SERGEANT KOTOKA AND WARRANT OFFICER OCRAN,WERE THE ARMED CRININALS IN MILITARY UNIFORMSTHAT OVERTHREW CPP UNDER THE LEADERSHIP OF DR KWAME NKRUMAH, WITH THE PRETEXT, NKRUMAH AND THE CPP WERE DESTROYING ghana AND THEY HAD COME IN TO SAVE THE NATION AND TO MAKE GHANA A BETTER PLACE TO LIVE.
IMMEDIATLY after THE COUP GHANAIANS, INCLUDING THE SO CALLED HIGHLY EDUCATED PEOPLE FROM THE THREE UNIVERSITIES,OFOSU APPIAH, OFORI ATTA, JNR, KWAPONG,BOAHENE JOINED BY THE OPPOSITION GROUP JOE APPIAH, R.R.AMPONSAH,S.D.DOMBO,VICTOR OWUSU, LAWYER BLAY OF SEKONDI, AMPONSAH DADZIE TOOK THE STREETS OF GHANA TO CONDEMN THE CPP GOVERNMENT.
THE SO CALLED GOVERNMENT OF THE COUP LEADERS, NATIONAL LIBERATION COUNCIL HEADED BY CAPTAIN ANKRAH STOPPED ALL FACTORIES THAT WERE IN PRODUCTION IN THE COUNTRY.
GOVERNMENT PROPERTIES WERE LOOTED AND SHARED AMONGST THEMSELVES.
THE SAVIOUS OF GHANA THEN BECAME CRIMINAL THIEVES, ROGUES AND CROOKS AND PLUNDERED THE RESOURCES OF THE NATION.
ALMOST FOUR YEARS OF THEIR GOVERNMENT, ALL ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT PROJECTS WERE STOPPED, AND TO ENCOURAGE BUYING AND SELLING.
PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT(PWD) THAT WAS IN CHARGE OF THE NATIONS INFRASTRUCTURE, ROADS,GOVERNMENT BUILDINGS,BRIDGES,LOCAL INFRASTRUCTURE DEVELOPMENT WAS ORDERED TO SEIZE AND TAKEN OVER BY THEIR OWN RELATIVES.
WHE THEY FINALLY HANDED POWER TO THE PROGRESS PARTY/PP) LED BY BUSIA, THE COUNTRY BECAME NO MORE FUNCTIONAL, EVEN TO THE TIME OF THE GOVERNMENT OF ACHEAMPONG WHERE BRIBERY AND CORRUPTION HAD ITS HIGHEST ZENITH IN THE COUNTRY.
SINCE FIFTY ONE YEARS OF NKRUMAH'S FORCED EXIT AND WHEN GHANAIANS WERE PROMISED OF ECONOMIC GROWTH, EMPLOYMENT, INCOME AND QUALITY OF LIFE, IT IS STILL A PITY AND PATHETIC,THE COUNTRY CONTINUES TO WITNESS ECONOMIC BACKWARDNES, UNDERDEVELOPMENT AND EXTREME POVERTY.
NDC AND NPP PARTYS THAT SPRANG UP WHEN THE COUNTRY WAS FINALLY USSHERED TO CIVILIAN RULE IN 1992WRTE ONLY ONLY TO COME IN TO MANIPULATE, EMBEZZLE,STEAL AND CORRUPT THE NATION.
THIS OF COURSE MUST BE TERMED AS A VICIOUS CIRCLE,
AND UNLESS THESE TWO PARTYS, NDC AND NPP WHO HAVE NO POLITICAL HISTORY ARE BOOTED OUT OF POWER AND VANISH FROM THE POLITICAL LANDSCAPE OF GHANA, THE COUNTRY WILL ONLY CONTINUE TO BE DOOMED TO HELL IN THE NEXT HUNDRED YERAS.
IT IS TIME, GHANA IS RESHAPED AND BUILT TO MEET THE FUTURE.
LONG LIVE OUR LAND OF OUR BIRTH-GHANA.

Yes, ampa! He was an excellent leader,he was visionary and an achiever to the betterment of Ghana. Dr Nkrumah would not have tolerated these groups of nation wreckers, the irresponsible and violent thieves calling themselves, Delta/Invisible forces. Dr Nkrumah would have taken immediate action for the sake of National security and safety of citizens to put immediate stop and arrest of all these idiotic morons! You think the Americans, British, German, French, Malaysians, South Africans and others would allow such idiots to hold their nations to random? Dr Nkrumah was far ahead of his time. every responsible person would now realised that PDA was indeed, a good thing if some citizens want to disregard social orders in our communities. As for the developments in social and economic and educational sectors I salute him again. So what has happened to the factories the Tamale Airport, Akosombo, Tema Motorway( no maintenance for over 45yrs!), the scientific institutions like Aquatic, Atomic, Engineering and Cocoa research? oh Ghana, it looks like the turn of the irresponsible and visionless and greedy people taking over Ghana. God continue to bless us.

LUCY ANIN IS FAR BEHIND TIMES STILL TALKING ABOUT NKRUMAH'S VISION. NKRUMAH HAD ALL THE MONE TOO DO WHATEVER HE DID. GHANA DID NOT OWE IN LOANS TO ANY COUNTRY,, NO IMF LOANS AND SO ON. GHANA'S POPULATION WAS AROUND 6 MILLION AT THE TIME OF INDEPENDENCE THEREFORE TIMES HAVE CHANGED. WE HAVEN'T DONE WELL, BUT WE ARE IN DIFFERENT ECONOMIC TIMES. TRULY, NKRUMAH COULD HAVE DONE BETTER GIVEN THE CONDITIONS AT THE TIME. LUCY ANIN SHOULD REMIND US THAT NKRUMAH WAS A DICTATOR AND THAT HE USED HIS POSITION TO IMPRISON AND KILL SOME OF HIS POLITICAL OPPONENTS. NKRUMAH WAS A WICKED AND SELFISH LEDER WHO WAS NO BETTER THAN THE REST OF OUR LEADERS. YOUNG PIONEER WAS RATHER USED TO BREED INDISCIPLINE AMONG THE YOUTH. JUST REPORT YOUR OWN PARENTS IF THEY EVER SPOKE AGAINST NKRUMAH. THAT WAS THE ORDER OF THE DAY. LUCY ANIN MUST NOT TWIST THE FACTS JSUT BECASDUE SHE BENEFITTED FROM NKRUMAH'S DICTATORIAL RULE.

Nkruma never thought good for ghanaians but rather for his selfish political popularity. If he had been a good leader he would not have been deposed.
Ghana do not need his vision because they are dead visions.

chigri, it's either you don't know your history or you may be dumb (no offence please, because you come out as one)..............
If that was the case, the new spineless leaders with no vision from both the NDC and NPP would not be following his footsteps without their own ideas......
Please let me enlighten you a bit here, the free SHS, one district one factory, the infrastructural projects, free health care, industries and many more others were already his vision before these lot came to follow him. His dead vision? WOW!
So, they overthrew him for this current vision for GHANA you live in? The FAILED STATE, GHANA? Full of FILTH, CORRUPTION, GREED, LAWLESSNESS and the GUTTER POLITICS of the NDC and NPP?
Please wake up from your slumber and start thinking before you end up with no GHANA at all, the rate at which our clueless so-called leaders are driving the nation.
GOD BLESS GHANA!

The current SPINELESS so-called leaders of today have nothing to offer AFRICANS...........How come the change from OAU to AU? (Think deeply about it). I know most of us are not deep enough to get it......
Anyway, did you know that the EU sponsors the AU? So, ask yourself what on earth can the SPINELESS ones take any decisions on AFRICA without the WEST looking over their shoulders?
These SPINELESS leaders are in collusion with the WEST to rape us of OUR rich natural resources on the cheap! And in return, they offer scholarships and financial benefits to these SPINLESS ones and their families to schools in the WEST.....at the expense of our children.
The only leader who STOOD UP to the WEST, was overthrown by the UNCLE TOMS in our midst, working for the WEST........was OSAGYEFO DR. KWAME NKRUMAH!!
And his vision for GHANA and AFRICA on the whole was second to none!!!
GHANA IS NOW A FAILED STATE with all this CORRUPTION, GREED, LAWLESSNESS and the ABUNDANT FILTH!!!!

NON-ALIGNED,
YOU ARE IN INDEED HUNDRED PERCENT FOR YOUR COMPRENSIVE ANALYSIS OF THE PRIMITIVE POLITICS BEING PRACTICED BY THE THE TWOSO CALLED PARTIES, THE NDC AND NPP IN THE COUNTRY.
DO YOU KNIW WHAT, THEY CONTINUE TO TAKE ADVNTAGE OF THE IGNORANCE AND INNOCENCE OF THE PRESENT GENERATION ONLY TO MANIPULATE,EMBEZZLE,CHEAT, DUPE, STEAL AND EXPLOIT THEM IN THE COUNTRY.
WHAT HAVE THESE TWO PARTIES NDC AND NDC WITHOUT POLITICAL HISTORY IN GHANA,ACHIEVED FOR GHANA,ITS ALL BEEN CONTINUATION OF BRIBERY AND CORRUPTION AND LOOTING OF STATE PROPERTIES.
CAN YOU TELL ME WHAT THEY HAVE DONE FOR THE INFRASTURCTURE IN THE COUNTRY SINCE BEING THE GOVERNMENTS OF GHANA,NOTHING AND TO SEE THE INFRASTRUCTURE IN THE COUNTRY IN SHAMBELS,
WHAT IS SAD AND PATHETIC THEY ALLOWED THE GHANA AIRWAYS TO GO BANKKRUPT AND CRIPPLED THE GHANA RAILWAYS AND FOR THEM TO SHARE ITS PROPERTIES, BUNGALOWS, ESTATES AND LANDS AMONGST THEMSELVES.
DO YOU CALL THIS TRUE POLITICS.
NO AND NO.
THIS IS POLITICS OF DESTRUCTION OF OUR BELOVED LAND OF BIRTH,GHANA BUILT OM A SOLID FOUNDATION BY THE CPP UNDER THE LEADERSHIP OF DR KWAME NKRUMAH OF BLESSED MEMORy:
IT IS MY WISH TO SEE THAT, DR DUBOIS AND PADMORE WHO WERE FASCINATED OF NKRUMAHS VISION FOR GHANA AND THE BLACK RACE AND CAME TO GHANA TO HELP HIM BUILD THE CONTINEN OF AFRICA,AND DIED IN THE COUNTRY TO HAVE THEIR REMAINS EXHUMED AND FLOWN TO THEIR HOME COUNTRIES FOR REBURIAL.
THEIR BODIES DO NOT DESERVE TO BE THERE AND FOR THEM TO SEE THE CONTINUED ECONOMIC BACKWARDNESS, UNDERDEVELOPMENT AND EXTREM POVERTY IN THE COUNTRY,
WHAT IS MORE WORRYING,THEIR SO CALLED EDUCATED MEMBERS OF NDC AND NPP WITH BIG DEGREES AND PHD TITLES ARE STILL NOT UNCONVINCED OF THE IMPORTANCE OF SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY, INNOVATION AND CREATIVITY AS THE VERY TOOLS IN CREATING ECONOMIC GROWTH AND TO ALLEVIATE POVERTY IN GHANA.
IF GHANA WOULDN'T HAVE HAD THE HARDWORKING ILLITERATE COCOA FARMERS AND THE UNSKILLED MINE WORKERS ON THEIR TOIL ADN SEWAT THE NATION EARNS ITS FOREIGN EXCHANGE TO SERVICE NATIONAL BUDGETS AND DEBTS,I DOUBT VERY MUCH IF, GHANA WOULD HAVE BEEN ON THE WORLD MAP.
PATHETIC AS IT IS IN THE COUNTRY, THEY USE THE VERY FUNDS, MILLIONS OF DOLLARS OF THE COCOA FARMERS TO IMPORT EXPENSIVE LUXURY CARS AND JEEPS FOR THEIR EXTRAVAGANT LIFSSTYLES IN THE COUNTRY.
NON-ALIGNED,UNLESS THESE TWO PARTIES ARE VOTED OUT AND DO VANISH FROM THE POLITICAL LANDSCAPE OF GHANA FOR THE HARM THEY CONTINUE TO INFLICT ON THE DISADVANTAGED AND THE LESS FORTUNATE, AND MOST ESPECIALLY THE PEOPLE IN THE RURAL AREAS WHO CONTINUE TO LIVE IN MUD AND HUT STRUCTURES WITHOUT BASIC AMENITIES, WATER,ENERGY AND COMMUNICATION THE NATION GHANA WILL CONTINJE TO BE DOOMED TO HELL FOR THE NEXT HUNDRED YEARS.

Dear Lady, it's the fossilised brains and backward thinking of people like you why Ghana is finding it difficult to think creatively to move forward and develop! Why does everything has to regress to Nkrumah and his outmoded ideas or post colonial philosophy? Your Nkrumah was no Lee Kuan Yew so give us a break and let us keep moving forward, however slowly, until finally another worthy and deep thinking person comes along to take us forward!
