The Mystery of What Happened to the Body of Kwame Nkrumah

- This story focuses on the battle over Nkrumah's body.
It's April 1972. At a Romanian hospital far from his lush green and beautiful homeland in Ghana, Dr Kwame Nkrumah is seeking treatment for prostate cancer.
Since his overthrow by the military in February 1966, the former Ghanaian leader had practically disappeared from the political scene.
Even with their best efforts, the Romanian doctors believe that Nkrumah has only a few days to live as a result of cancer.
On April 27, 1972, Dr Kwame Nkrumah passed away in Bucharest. He was lonely and far from his people. There was no ceremony or drama for someone surrounded by both throughout his political career as President of Ghana and as one of Africa's most acclaimed figures.
We have a University in Zambia 🇿🇲 named after him...
He was a great man and we send our love 😍 to Ghana 🇬🇭

Guinea president Toure did so well to preserve Nkrumah's legacy. Well done president Toure.
That was because of the role Nkrumah played in Guinea's independence
@@markowusu6511 At least he showed gratitude and loyalty to Nkrumah even after his death.
@@boogsybrooks Yes my brother he did
True African Statesmanship - H.E. President Toure , what a man !
He never died he is in every African street and he will always live
If only AFRICA had listen to this man it will have been better for the continent today. Look at where we are. Getting poor every day.
Outside influence and greed clouded their judgement
Africa does not want to go back to One Unified Socialist Africa today. If Africa really listened to Commie Nkrumah, they would end democracy in all 54 states and make Africa communist again. And it is fortunate that they didn't because socialism sucks. Nkrumah literally called for One Unified Socialist Africa and meddled with other African countries to force it to happen. Nkrumah even tried to overthrow Nasser, who gave asylum to the family of Patrice Lumumba. One Unified Socialist Africa is made in the image of world government.
Lumumba never called for One Unified Socialist Africa. Ghana acted like Belgium in 1960. Lumumba has returned in the person of Tshisekedi, and CNN spreads fake news about the Congo, just as they demonized Ahmed Abiy in Ethiopia. Fayulu is in coalition with Katumbi, who is a Katangese mercenary. Friends of the Congo plays the role of Nkrumah. The fragile alliance has broken down completely. marxist organizations have joined forces with mercenaries to repeat the South Kasai massacre and blame Tshisekedi for it. Tshisekedi wants peace with Rwanda, and Fayulu wants revenge. Fayulu denies that Congolese Tutsis exist. Fayulu is an extremist. The Lumumba family stands with Tshisekedi. Lumumba's grandson is pro-business and promotes entrepreneurship. That says how much Dulles lied. But Nkrumah is an actual communist. Nkrumah was the only African nationalist that Eisenhower liked, which means that Eisenhower picked the wrong nationalist. Lumumba is back since 2018, and the communists hate him. Nkrumah threw in with Tshombe as of May 2023. Fayulu's riots resemble BLM.
Very well put
Sekou Toure is a Noble Patriotic African. He stood by Nkrumah's side in thick and thin. Thank you Comrade Papa Toure
That's the types of friends we pray for
This story has shown Toure to be a great Pan Africanist and a great Friend of Nkrumah
A prophet has never been recognised by his own people,but far away from Guinea a prominent son of Africa the great Pan-African his excellecy papa Sekou Touré opened his arms to him by welcoming him, iIt's so sad .He's gone but not forever cause his legacy lives and will forever live and be remembered 🙏
I couldn't agree more with you
Every man needs a friend like Ahmad Sekou Toure. Loyal to the end.
Sekou Toure is a true friend
A TRUE and DEPENDABLE FRIEND
So many years after his passing away you can feel his presence not only in Ghana in particular but in the whole of Africa in general .His legacy never dies because it stands for freedom and justice which is the need and aspiration of mankind.We missed him dearly.
goose pimple all over mhy body
I dont think so.
I dont think so.
You can hate the Osagyefo as much as you want ,but history will unequivocally adjudge him the best Africsn leader of our time@@tommybonnah4982
Every time the get good leader,they mostly throw them under bus
So sadly
The greatest son of Africa he was such a visionary and selfless leader .Thanks for this piece of history .
Mm Nyerere and Mandela were the greatest
@@tvs9978 You can say whatever you want because you don't know anything about this great Pan-Africanist.Nkrumah mobilised all African states to fight hard to attain self rule.
@@tvs9978 Mandela the fraud? Please stop
@@tvs9978
Nkrumah is the greatest son of Africa. Nkrumah never dies, He lives on... ✊
@@ishmaelampongackah537 keep chanting that indoctrination. You're clear evidence of how easy it is to brainwash Africans.
The GREATEST son of Africa. God bless KN!
This channel has taught me more about African history than I was taught in school AND college. Your work is EXCELLENT sir. Well researched and impeccably presented. Thank you.
Wow, thank you
Sam hia
That's because the curriculum is set by the colonial masters and they made sure Africans don't teach/ take their history that seriously
It all about colonial mind games
No regrets,.I have always read good things about Kwame Nkrumah...Roads all over African capitals are named after him. Many kids are named Kwame, and I personally lived in a university hall called Nkrumah hall somewhere in Buganda Kingdom. Osajefo is what I came to learn was his title. Osajefo Oyeee!!!!
You are right, he was true pan Africanist and black hero, I'm Ghanaian, since independence no politician in Ghana can't compare his achievements or legacies to him . He helped other African countries to gained independence. He was a black hero. They have built his big his statue infront African headquarters in Ethiopia 🇪🇹 Addis baba.
Married Like Skin
What did he die Of; what was the medical examiner's Report; come On.
*Who placed a price on his Head?*
@@JohnDoe-wv2tk the late Jerry Rawlings knows better.Or inquire more from our Ghanian brothers and sisters.
Kwame Nkrumah Never Dies, his Legacies is Remains, and it will Remain for Ever and Ever Great MAN for AFRICANS ❤
May God give us friends like sekou toure.. Very great channel
Yes, thank you
I love him same for my partner but I do not know him
GOD sends this kind of leaders, like Nkrumah, once in 200 years...Africans must be very proud of Nkrumah, Sekou Toure, Ghana!...Greetings from Vancouver, Canada.
U are right my brother.He was a great visionary man indeed. I have all the books that he wrote u must read one of his numerous books AFRICA MUST UNITE and NEO-COLONIALISM then u will understand how great that man was.
Dr Kwame Nkrumah lives forever 🌹
Président Touré was a true friend 🙌🏽 Rest in peace M. Nkrumah 💐
The people who overthrow this man Nkrumah will suffer even their generation to generation and continue to suffer.😭
He is the current president’s father, Nana Akuffo Addo, and he is useless president ever.
Their generation leads Ghana now, and they are destroying the country 😢💔💔
Ghana will never be like Nkrumah's time, may his soul rest in peace perfect.
what you do with your first borns will determine your future. Ghana is still struggling in poverty even afte being the first to attain self rule in Africa.
Dr Kwame Nkrumah was for African not Ghana alone
Nkrumah the spirit of Africa 👊🏻🔋🇬🇭
He is also the spirit of Africa in Antigua 🇦🇬 in the Caribbean. He did not die Nkruma lives on.
Ghana sold out Nkrumah and we regret till today….Dude was a God on his own
VIVA our Africa leader one of the greatest ever; i'm a true WARRIOR of the greatest MPLA- COMMUNIST SOCIALIST of Angola; BENGUELA!
A lie
❤️❤️🙏
@@joshuasachi6297 I KOW YOU ARE ONE OF THEM
@@georgeappiah8314 He is
Sekou Toure's faithfulness baffles me. He is an honest man and stands tall when it comes to trust.
Africa would have been the superpower of the world if Nkrumah had stayed in power for even 5 more years.
Such a great son of Mama Africa.
I was a young boy when he was overthrow what I will say is the ignorance and knowledge was not there may he rest in peace
Nana Akufo Addo, the current president of Ghana's father and family overthrew Nkrumah's government. Akufo addo is a Western stooge. Akufo Addo is one of those stupid and naive Africa leaders who continue to open the gates of Africa for the Western imperialists , colonislists and capitalists to loot African resources for their own selfish, corrupt and personal gains. Ghana the capital of Pan Africanism needs a Pan African leader now!
Africa when will you learn.😢longlive the spirit of President Nkrumah. Fight the enemies with us. You know them well.
Thank you
Sakou Toure was a pioneer of the resistance against the thieves France 🇫🇷.
Today era is different
There are More Patriotism in Africa than Judas ( traitors)
Cheers from west Africa
🦅
I really like the narrator's voice, good work!
Thank you very much!
This story really makes me sad and literally broke my heart.😢😢😢😢
Osagyefo Dr. Kwame Nkrumah was a true leader to our motherland Ghana. We regret his overthrow till date.
It was really sad for Ghana and DRC ( Congo) Who betrayed their Saviour Who sacrifices and stood for their Liberation...
Ghana is today being Punished on what they did in the Past through One of the Sons of ex Ghanaian TRAITORS/House Negroes/Uncle Sams( Well done RAWLINGS who brought 3 of the Traitors to Assassination by hanging them at Firing Square good food for CROCODILE 😂- AFRIFA/ACHEAPONG and Akufo the current Ghanaian President’s late Father).
its funny how most text book you learn as kid never tell the truth
Once again another great video. 👍
SALUTE 2 Kwame Nkrumah n His Loyal Komrade Sekou Toure
Quite an interesting history. Thanks for sharing.
Glad you enjoyed it
I will forever respect toure'
Am filled with tears
May his soul rest in peace a true African hero despite all his shot comings
That's why sometimes we should always remember death in all our doings
Nice man
Truly, Dr. Nkrumah wasn't a Ghanaian. He was a true son of Africa who never dies. Check around every great city of Africa, you will find Nkrumah.
Thanks! Thanks a lot for sharing this information!!!!
History was my best subject.....I love your channel good job
Thank you for a thorough presentation.
We do have Nkrumah Road in Botswana too, thanks to this channel i learnt so much about Nkrumah, all African countries are wayback behind in progress just because of Europe and America, Sahara, Lumumba all died just because of the west. AFRICA SHOULD SUPPORT PUTIN
Thanks for sharing. Nkrumah will forever live in people heart ❤.
Indeed Kwame Nkrumah was an Illustrious African son. I admire the kind of unique friendship of Sekou Toure,a friend indeed.
sad that cia n the western countries had been corrupting African countries since independence upto now...rip Ngurumah K
This is what we have to fight for. We have got to study the reason why some people from Africa easily betray their own brothers.
@@pensadorrealista2825, greediness and witchcraft
DR KWAME NKRUMAH IS THE BEST AFRICAN LEADER OF ALL TIMES.
WE LOVE YOU NKRUMAH, AND WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU.
Well done and thanks for the message.Kruma legacy shall come true in due curse of time, regardless.God s time is indisputable.
Rest in peace our formal presidient DR Kwame Nkrmah God bless you😭😢🙏🙏🙏🙏
My fellow Africans especially the south African you must support Julia's Malema
One of our greatest hero of all times. Respect from🇨🇩
I need friends like sekou toure
Very Very LOYAL FRIEND
Love your videos!
Thank you!
Looking forward to viewing all your videos. Just downloaded!
Nkrumah is forever going to be an African hero like Patrick Lamumba, Mugabe and all of the conscious black leaders who was murdered by the instructions and support of wicked West.
Foreign wives are always in for a buck. Why didn’t she take care of her husband. Very sad but Toure remained a true friend to this African giant.
What the hell are you talking about? How do you know what?
He knows because when he was overthrown in 1969 the wife went back to Egypt. The wife never visited him in Guinea until he died in 1972. She only went to his funeral upon all the gold bars that were shipped to her family when her husband was in office.
@@jkoanana no gold bars were shipped to Fathia’s family and the reason she and her children never visited Nkrumah in Guinea was because Nkrumah himself forbade them from doing so. He believed that it was not safe for that to happen.
Wow learnt new things today...thank you
So glad!
Indeed Nkrumah will never die!!!!!!
Salutes comrade Toure! This is the true spirit of Pan Africanism!
You can not believe Kotoka the foreign traitor has been named after our Airport till this day. Sad but true
What abt Bachi John
that's what infuriates me, that name should be changed. Although he had some good policies but he was a traitor
I wonder why
That was where he died but yeah our airport shouldn't have been named a traitor's name....that's a shame.
These traitors are always controlled by the deep state since day one. R I P mr president.
So touching
😢😢😢very sad day it was❤
No other African has ever put in the same energy and willingness to unite Africa than Dr. Kwame Nkrumah. He remains the greatest son of the African soil.
Toure❤ is the friend we need
The Osageyefo left us a body of work to follow that we can still pull Ghana and the continent from western exploitation.
With modern updates to his works we could block any coup attempts to sabotage our renewed direction to liberation and independence.
GRATITUDE...... 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🏹🏹🏹🏹🏹🏹👀
Thanks. But a little slip. You said, at 3:52, that Nkrumah died on April 27, 1972. And yet, at 4:16, you said that Sekou Toure set March 16, 1972 as the date of the funeral. Surely, the funeral didn't take place before the man died! Perhaps you meant May 16, 1972 as the date of the funeral.
Very smart of you
Nkrumah's end truly saddens me. I hope he finds some peace in the afterlife. Rest well Father of Africa 😊
Serous Toure was a great man.
Well done the president of Guinea
WE SHALL HONOR YOU AND FIX THIS MESS. #UA United Africa ✊🏿
Medasi President Toure ,a real Friend to the end.
What a great Friend.
The best!
We are still suffering the demise of Kwame Nkrumah
Nkrumah sir we fight on sir our people's still sleep sir thank you for your service sir
I am so sad
Kotoka actions against Nkrumah has brought curse upon Ghana , we should take his name from the airport .Shame on you kotoka
I agree with you
Hmmmmm.❤
The Ghanaians as a government and as a people should apologise to the entire continent of Africa for the mess
##Nkrumah never dies##
Africa and its realities.
May God bless your legacy
Osagefo Doctor Kwame Nkrumah.we love you and will not forget your legacy.may your soul rest well Papa.
Nkrumah never dies ❤✊🏿✊🏿
Dr Kwame Nkrumah sɛ na moni kaya
Nkrumah Never Dies
Great history narrative. Nkrumah electricity power is still the main source of power. His road still iconic yet President Akufo Addo the devil is working hard to destroy the history of Kwame Nkrumah
Africa unite for the benefit of your people
I can't agree more than this... I still don't know what's wrong with us.
@@gadzikagunda3617the powers making sure we never unite are great. They work both physically and spiritually to rumble Africa down.
But it is a matter of time, Africa shall raise..
RIP
He was A Great MAN
Real man
He will always be remember
Krumah foi grande presidente Africano, um dos gra des Lideres Africanos
Ghana BETRAYED this man, and then claim his body after his death, how ironic !
Sekou Toure was not wrong. He was truly, Kwame Nkrumah of Africa. We would have been honoured to have him buried in Nigeria. RIP lion of Africa.
Why don't you do a video on General Yakubu Gowon?
When one sees how African heroes are treated by their people its no surprise we don't have more Nkrumahs. Even though he wished to be cremated they still buried him.
Very bad. Hmm
My hat off once again my président Ahmed Sekou toute ❤
Dr Nkrumah rules for Ghana only 6 years and ever done more better than every leader ever rule Ghana as a leader
God bless Guinée
God Almighty is the Supreme Judge over the earth. And, we will all be judged for our sins. Many nations around the world will face the wrath of God for their wickedness. The innocent blood of many world leaders is upon them, and they will pay for it. God is not sleeping!
in other words: you have nothing of value to say.
Everything Ghana is going through today. We deserve it for how we treat of the man that brought us out of slavery.
His wife who was supposed to be beside him to take care of him on his sick bed was living in Egypt and left him in Guinea by himself.
Only that stress could have put his life to an end.
Rest in peace osagyefo.
Why did he marry that white arab from egypt-sad & contradictory.
@@lancelotwilson5761 if She was Egyptian and by default African, why do u carry such spite? Nkrummah was beyond the simplicity of your ignorance.
@@curlzczringa She is not Afrikan-she is a descendant of the white arabs who invaded "egypyt". Nkrumah made his decision to marry her for whatever reason and Nkrumah himself was a contradiction-talking black but sleeping white. I'm not colour blind-your'e the one who is ignorant.
@@lancelotwilson5761 why does it matter that she was Arab.
@@6paths142 Read the history of the Arabs in AFRIKA and figure it out.
I salute Ahmed Sekou Toure with reverence ❤❤❤
Keep restiing the true son of Africa
So, @4:41, which flag? Isn't it obvious that two similar words will cause confusion? I'll assume the coffin was draped 'in the flag of Guinea, rather than the flag of Ghana', but assumptions aren't the best way to get information.
Afrika has been unwise in it's treatment of their leaders, publicly disgracing them in their moments of weakness
