Dr. Kwame Nkrumah, the most feared Ghanaian leader by Western Europe and the US governments
In Ghana, you can be a president, but not all Ghanaian leaders have equal wisdom. Some leaders used their intelligence to make Ghana a great nation, while others brought untold hardship and suffering to the common people.
Jesus once said, "A prophet is not without honor except in his own town and in his own home."
That is true; Kwame Nkrumah might be considered a
hero at his birthplace, Nkroful, but his achievements as one of Ghana’s greatest
political figures have caused jealousy among an empire of deceitful politicians
who have tried to taint the works of this great man.
In the political history of Ghana, there hasn't been any Ghanaian leader who is loyal to his
country and the entire African continent at the same time, like the former
nationalist, Dr. Kwame Nkrumah.
Even though some Ghanaians might have been inspired by
Nkrumah’s ideologies and philosophy, they still lacked the heroism that made
Kwame Nkrumah the kind of leader feared most by the governments of Western
Europe and the United States of America.
Whereas today, there hasn't been any Ghanaian or African
leader to question the colonial masters and the US government about the strange
diseases, such as HIV, AIDS, tuberculosis, Burkitt's lymphoma, Kaposi's
sarcoma, Lassa fever, and Ebola (apart from malaria), that suddenly or
miraculously appeared on the continent of Africa. Nkrumah spoke against these
issues to protect the continent because he knew what the foreign powers could
do.
Since Kwame Nkrumah wasn’t ready to let Africa suffer after
independence, he became a stumbling block on the paths of the governments of Western
Europe and the United States of America because of their diabolical, clandestine agenda to take possession of Africa’s rich resources.
With the collaboration of America's CIA, the Nkrumah regime
was overthrown. Years later, apart from malaria, many diseases came to the
continent of Africa, causing a major setback to the development of the
continent.
Today, African leaders accept money from foreign governments
to support HIV/AIDS and Ebola projects in Africa, instead of rejecting it
because all the money ends up in their pockets.
Western European and American leaders do bad things
politically and economically to Africa, yet they don't want any nation on earth
to do the same thing against them. After that, they turn on African
leaders to call them ‘corrupt,’ and the African continent a ‘shithole.’
How do you expect Ghana or any African country to progress
when African leaders kowtow in front of foreign leaders after committing
horrible crimes in Africa and exchange the souls of their dead citizens killed by
biological weapons for money?
History has repeated itself with a new biological weapon
called coronavirus. Even though, as usual, Africa is not responsible for any
biological weapon, COVID-19 is gradually bringing Africa's ailing economy to a
halt.
Already, it has been reported that the money given to
support the coronavirus project in Ghana is completely exhausted. (Sika nu
ashi, asah.) Within the shortest period, the money was given to Ghana; nobody
knows what exactly it was used for.
Even though there is no Ghanaian or African leader prepared to die or face any
harsh treatment from foreign governments, yet, till today, many Ghanaians
hate Kwame Nkrumah. However, the truth is that if many African leaders are brave and powerful enough like Nkrumah, Africa would not end up in
such a disaster, despite the continent’s rich resources.
I can still hear the “Voice From Afar” of Kwame
Nkrumah, a tribute to K. B. Asante, speaking, warning, and reminding Ghanaians
and other African leaders with these powerful words.
“Even the cinema stories of fabulous Hollywood are
loaded. One has only to listen to the cheers of an African audience as
Hollywood’s heroes slaughter red Indians or Asiatics to understand the
effectiveness of this weapon. For, in the developing continents, where the
colonialist heritage has left a vast majority still illiterate, even the
smallest child gets the message contained in the blood and thunder stories
emanating from California.”
“And along with murder and the Wild West goes an
incessant barrage of anti-socialist propaganda, in which the trade union man,
the revolutionary, or the man of dark skin is generally cast as the villain,
while the policeman, the gumshoe, and the Federal agent—in a word, the CIA-type spy—is ever the hero.”
“Here, truly, is the ideological underbelly of those
political murders that so often use local people as their instruments. While
Hollywood takes care of fiction, the enormous monopoly press, together with the outflow of slick, clever, expensive magazines, attends to what it chooses to
call ‘news.”
“Within separate countries, one or two news agencies
control the news handouts, so that a deadly uniformity is achieved, regardless
of the number of separate newspapers or magazines; while internationally, the financial preponderance of the United States is felt more and more through its
foreign correspondents and offices abroad, as well as through its influence
over international capitalist journalism.”
“Under this guise, a flood of anti-liberation propaganda
emanates from the capital cities of the West, directed against China, Vietnam,
Indonesia, Algeria, Ghana, and all countries that hack out their own
independent path to freedom. Prejudice is rife. For example, wherever there is
armed struggle against the forces of reaction, the nationalists are referred to
as rebels, terrorists, or frequently ‘communist terrorists'!” ― Kwame
Nkrumah.
He that has ears, let him hear. Ghana, or the entire African continent, needs strong and powerful leaders, like Nkrumah, to feed, educate,
provide jobs, improve the health sectors in the country, and protect the
continent from foreign subversive activities affecting the development of the
continent.
If African leaders are not prepared to stand and fight for
their country, the continent of Africa will always remain a 'shithole,' with
poor economies, malnourished children, and diseases, while Europe and America
capitalize on our resources to build their economies much stronger.
