  Dear Inusah,
  
  Correction: Wallenberg's "stepniece," not "step-granddaughter"?
  
  Thanks.

  Dear Kwarteng,
  Long time.
  Are you aware that the full title of Inusah Mohammed's inspirational piece is : "How To Shine Like a Guiding Star and Inspire Acts of Courage, Tolerance and Unselfishness in the World"?
  Are you also aware that your own tin god Kwame Nkrumah instead of inspiring courage was himself a coward, instead of encouraging tolerance he became a political dictator who eliminated every form of dissent by imprisoning and killing dissenters without trial and instead of unselfishness his rule was the epitome of selfish political ambition?
  He replaced a vibrant democracy with Soviet style dictatorship. So long as we remain mortal beings passionate differences will always exist in a democracy but the beauty and wisdom of democracy is the ability to compromise seemingly unbridgeable differences with some dignity. As a dictator, Nkrumah was no consensus builder. Consensus building is what allows boisterous politicians who excel in the art of feuding during the parliamentary sessions to socialize by night, share some glasses of beer with political adversaries and take half a loaf and live to fight another day.
  Raoul Wallenberg liberated tens of thousnds of Jews in Nazi occupied Hungary and on Jan 17, 1945 during the siege of Budapest by the Soviet Red Army he was detained on suspicion of espionage. He was later reported to have died on July 17, 1947 while imprisoned by KGB Secret police. Was it not deja vu all over again 18 years after the murder of Raoul at the hands of his Soviet captors when this time in Ghana J.B Danquah died in prison on the orders of the Soviet inspired and tutored Kwame Nkrumah? Nkrumah is the exact opposite of Wallenberg. Raoul Wallenberg died that Jews may live and Nkrumah had to be deposed so that Ghanaians can live freely to either "rule or misrule" ourselves. It was Nkrumah who said it's better for the blackman to rule or misrule ourselves than to be ruled by another.
