How Dr. Nkrumah responded to the coup of 1966 that overthrew him... 

IN SUMMARY, BELIEVE IT OR NOT, THAT WAS THE DAY GHANA AND AFRICA AS A WHOLE DIED!

I wish our history books will be centered on the history of Ghana.

I’ll start buying books of Osagyefo and read. It’s far better than listening to the State of the Nation address

Nkrumah is my beloved leaders Your memory is everlasting

@ Frankkuayaw, Be informed that J B Dankwa did not bring Kwame Nkrumah but it was rather Paa Grant who did everything. Paa Grant was also the father of the party. J B Dankwa was simply a C I A agent......

If Kwame Nkrumah can write this grammar in 1966.....woow so incredible

Africa would have been a superpower if Dr Nkrumah's dream came true . Forever an icon .

Nkrumah himself in this short communication proofs that his people were property conscious.

The best that happened to Africa to have Nkrumah the greatest of all

Dr. Kwame Nkrumah, Ghana's best President ever

I am pro Danquah-Busia. But studying in the United Kingdom, I have come to understand that all coups that happened in Ghana were championed by people who were extremely naïve and never considered the long term effect. Nkrumah had a long term vision but our people, being ignorant of the neo-colonists and imperialists, USA & UK, were used for their own interest. Nkrumah vehemently warned us against them but Ghanaians and even as of now are still blinded by the treacherous and heinous acts of the West as we still hail them as Angels. Nkrumah observe the West since he studied in both US and UK and he was more bent on outright independence from the west with no interference. Until Ghana gets a leader who will be bold enough to change our educational system(curriculum that emphasise reasoning and rationalisation), develop a national policy that is bigger than any political party, chiefs, people's parochial interest, or tribal sentiments, our development will still be hindered.

Dr. Nkrumah was a very intelligent man except that he was surrounded by very stupid elites who considered themselves educated but couldn't solve any problems. Naturally, Nkrumah was born a leader but the improbity of the people around him caused his downfall as he was eventually reported to the central intelligence agency based on false claims. Envy and jealousy is not always about the wealth of people and that is why he was able to destroy all the clandestine activities of the C.I.A as a single individual. Notwithstanding, it is natural that people with low IQ tend to discuss people than solve problems which is why most of the people who were against Nkrumah were people who couldn't solve simple problems. Gossips always tend to be jealous people and anytime you listen to them, you could tell that they are very low in understanding. Nkrumah was the only leader at that time who could solve enigmatic problems of the country especially those from the C.I.A and that is why they hated him. He did not have the time to discuss people even though he was far better than them. Most importantly, all those who hated him, in the likes of yeboah, Halidu Giwa and kotoka all died in a gruesome manner. They left all the bad things they were doing in the country to blame Nkrumah, setting spies over him while the fault was from themselves.

The treachery is still decipherable no matter how neutral and objective certain groups try to make Ghanaians believe. Reasonable Ghanaians know the people who plotted and overthrew Dr Nkrumah from government.

NKRUMAH NEVER DIE✊

Editors should do their work well and eliminate all errors in their writeup. This is great info. Thanks!

“A united Africa,” who will govern it? Is it from a disunited people of Africa or a ghost from another world unknown? Africa, by this I mean sub-Saharan Africa, can only be governed unitedly if the peoples of Africa have a common philosophy of life, that’s a common way of doing things. There’s too much dissension amongst us. Only a common approach to life, bred by common life philosophy, can unite us. The Greek philosophy united Western Europe. Confucianism united the Chinese. Africans would need a common belief shared by many amongst them to be united in politics and economics.

Evil Ashantis could never 😢 no wonder Ghana is in shambles today, they are just super evil and power hungry yet they have no form of knowledge on how to run a country adequately. Our Nzema man will still and forever remain our hero, selfless, kind, and a heart of gold he is. Proud to an Nzema boy.

Africa hero we always remember u in tear’s 😢😢😢😢Ghana 🇬🇭🇬🇭🇬🇭🇬🇭

An interesting insight and historical snippet of President Kwame Nkrumah post coup.

Next time kindly read the slides well before publishing. The slides' full of mistakes

That's correct. The Osagyefo well understood coups d'etat were being carried out across the continent, and that an attempt in Ghana could occur. In my opinion, if the full number of Presidential Guard Unit Detachment was on post at Flagstaff House, at the moment of attack, it's highly possible the coup would have been thwarted. In addition, the traitors murdered Army Chief of Staff Gen Barwah, who was loyal to the Ghanaian republic under President Nkrumah.

No Ghanaian love Dr Kwame Nkrumah, how can we reward kotoka our only international airport and pretend to love him. Ghanaians are hippocrates.

This was so bad , I just realized the society of Ghana we respect do much had treated their first president like this? I went through the documentary about his death and the process it took to get his body back to Ghana,wow . thanks to the guy who did the documentary and also to you for this one

Nkrumah was genius

Because of Ghana I was put in prison, you think it’s not a curse for us ,the land is curse by the first president.. How would you feel when somebody took something from you that you’ve been working for in your whole life being dedicated to it

An industrial man for Africa

You have betrayed your nation. Karma is ahead

Nkrumah never say die

That is where we are now

Smart way of reading . Truly recognising huge mistakes on the screen and rectifying them. Pure Odadee skills. Who was typing those stuff inside your ocular vision or these were the words straight down from Dr. Nkrumah. "Him to Bim", " His to bis", "we were all of us anxious" . Me, am out.

Forgive us Nkrumah

Dr Kwame Nkrumah never communicated what you are saying. You are a liar. You can't fool everyone in this country. The truth will always come out somewhere some how. Dr Kwame Nkrumah legacy will remain forever.

Serves him right.... Far away in Peking when we were suffering in Ghana.... He'd already had 10 years in power and achieved nothing leaving the whole country disillusioned.... No wonder Ghanaians jubilated the way they did

Paul, did you broadcast this to mock Dr. Nkrumah? Your Buzia Danquah tradition was instrumental. They were happy. So are you today.

God's Grace ❤

0kukuseku...

My oh my. I can’t stop laughing, his description of the whole thing is so vivid and funny 😂😂😂😂😂. T

Banku Elders we have in Ghana that is why we are suffering.

Paul please can we have some reviews on the various ministers of nkrumah. I hear gbedemah was a very corrupt man.

Kwame Nkrumah the greatest of all time African President

And the goons and thieves that overthrew him today, their children well trained thieves stand on stages to say they've done more work than Osagyefo, May God save us from the devil within !!!

Trust no one Nkrumah was disappointed by his followers

He was naive; he should have led with an iron fist ✊🏿. Zero nonsense to traitors

Of he was a Great and Powerful Man.

LONG LIVE THE OSAGYEFO

Kwame Nkrumah was lucky he wasn’t in Ghana when the Coup took place

Short sighted nation😢😢

We gat to introduce such knowledge in schools

Liking b4 watching!

Why aren't they commenting

You see why many people won't comment here...cos we hate to learn..read and be resourced..only foolishness and insults is what we are pride ourselves with some banku journalists

The only great Man in the history of Ghana,May God bless your soul Kwame am glad to be part of your tribe,May the Comic mother of Ghana bless your people's etc,the Ahantas and the Nzema's.

This is true. Educate me more.

N A T O BACKED

Thanks to nana addo and his grandfather

The #treaters

😂❤️🙏🙏wow

You see how you are saying wow wow.. this is what we are all enjoying today. NPP will go out of power soon. The cash you have kept for yourself will finish.

Kwame the great

Nkrumah's coup was necessary.

Nkrumah is the reason for Ghana being a 3rd world country. He is the only head of state who didn't come to power when the country was in debt but his selfish ambitions led to a slow down in Ghana's REAL development.

Finished man

If Dr. J. B. Dankwa and co were selfish would they have brought him to Ghana to be secretary? Why detention act? If he had not been overthrown, he would be worse than Mugabe

The coup detat that is accrptable was 24th Feb 1966.Killing innocent people in Ghana by Kwame Nkrumah a Liberian criminal.The only legacy Nkrumah and cpp left was Nsawamu detention camp where he murdered his political opponents.All of the big Six who fought for our independence except Paa Willie Nkrumah murdered them Nsawamu tortured camp.

Well, Nkrumah was really sure of comeback. He had his time & needed to go with the one-party slogan. We can't fault him, after he did all he could do for the 9 years in power. Do not count the 6 years, he was just in charge of Business Affrairs of Ghana from 1951 to 1957 when, then Gold Coast gained its independence & name was changed to Ghana. Kwame Nkrumah, you run your race. It was time for you to give the baton to the next group. Farewell, Kwame.
