Ghanaians asked to rededicate themselves to ideals of Nkrumah

Ghanaians have been asked to rededicate themselves to the struggle against the takeover of state institutions by foreigners. Speaker after speaker at a lecture to commemorate the 49th anniversary of the overthrow of Ghana’s founding President, Osagyefo Dr Kwame Nkrumah, in Accra last Tuesday decried the sorry state of affairs in the country following the topple of Dr Nkrumah. In the view of  the apostles of the ideals and philosophy of Nkrumah, his overthrow reversed the country’s forward march to accelerated development. The function, which was on the theme: “Nkrumah never dies- Battling neo-colonialism, the last stage of Imperialism”, attracted scores of people to the College of Physicians and Surgeons, including ministers of state, members of the diplomatic corps and other groups. A leading member of the Socialists Forum of Ghana, Mr Kwesi Pratt Jnr,  took a swipe at those denigrating the ideas and ideals of Osagyefo Dr Kwame Nkrumah. continued
