Why Kwame Nkrumah Was a Threat
Vložit
- čas přidán 26. 04. 2023
- Nkrumah’s ideologies were rooted in his vision of a United States of Africa; he believed that the only way for Africa to truly progress was through the creation of a federal state based on a common market, a common currency, a unified army and a common foreign policy that would enable Africa to solve internal conflicts as well as defend itself against external threats. It is also no wonder that according to some quarters he had to be taken out, by any means necessary.

The problem of Africa is that Africa doesn't know their enemies, because Africa see their enemies as saviour and see their saviour as enemies.
Africa's savior is itself. Everyone else seeks to subdue, manipulate and control it.
That is an astute observation.
African people in the diaspora don't either or they think they can turn the other cheek and love them!
They know their enemies. They just don't have the spirit of patriotism.
@C M Africa has 3000 tribes. It doesn't identify as one continent. One country is proud and independent, the next wants favour with the west.
In Zambia, we have a university named after Kwame Nkrumah. This is how poweful this man was. Sadly, his own people betrayed him.
Glad to hear they named it after Osagyefo
his own people say that again.. and here we are as a nation being swallowed by corrupt people
The current Ghanaian President uncle betrayed him!
What is the name of the university?
@@francisappiah8867 Kwame Nkrumah University, located in Kabwe, in Zambia's central province.
They assasinated our forefathers but the United States Africa will come to pass. As a young African I'm calling on my fellow youths to elect good leadership so that we can move forward
Facts!
This is the best way forward!
No doubt!
@@RisenAfrica It's painfull to see how much the west has pulled Africa back multiple times n they are still trying up to this day
The current Ghanaian president Nana Akufo Addo's Father and uncle were the very people the CIA was working with and were the ones who hated Nkrumah for his industrialization.
Nana Akufo Addo would later hoodwinked most young Africans into believing he was a "Pan-African simply because he spoke up to the French president Macron in a staged up press conference.
The ruling party of Nana did not believe in state enterprises. They believed in the state to remain poorer while individuals who would rob the nation's coffers would become wealthy in what the ruling party and Nana termed "property owning democracy".
In this policy, they believed in the US capitalism which is a result of waging wars in other countries in order to loot their resources for their multi-national
corporations.
Nana and his government unfortunately have no country to wage ILLIGAL wars on in order to loot their resources for immense wealth creation as the US / NATO is doing, so they turned their "weak war efforts" inwardly on the poor citizens of the nation and on their own environment where the state had sanctioned illegal mining that had led to polluting all the rivers in the land, and also selling landing rights to the US military for fees therefore jeopardizing the sovereignty of "Kwame Nkrumah's Ghana".
Ghana would have been an industrious nation with more jobs for all Ghanaian and other African youths, and the nation Ghana would have been in a better financial state where we don't have to be going around begging any nation especially the Chinese who are opposite to Nana and his government ideology run thousands of "State-run Enterprises" that became the source of their vast wealth.
As a Ghanaian, I can only watch as tears drop from my eyes because a lot of people and most importantly AFRICANS still don’t see what this western countries have done to Africa 😢😢😢they say you will only know about it when the man in the long black coat knocks on your door 😢😢😢
Very sad indeed! I had a difficult time during research, Africa has been denied great leaders since the post-colonial era
@@RisenAfricaMuch thanks for the revelations.
CIA is a terroristic menace to global peace.
Let me tell you the western countries are not responsible for our woes the leaders who claim to lead us are useless.Take example Ghana doesn't need any foreign help our problem is leadership leave the western countries alone if u a fool invaders will invade and ransacked ur wealth God has given u.Ghana doesn't know how to collect taxes that is our problem.
It’s not just the West that looks out for its own interests. Stay alert.
Nkrumah is still a threat, his legacy still stands in the heart of Africa.
No doubt @emmanuelarthur his legacy cannot be wiped out
The seed that was planted is now in bloom, watch Africa rising in the mighty name of Jesus Christ! Rise! Rise! Rise - the most powerful nation on earth and yes she is rising by the grace of God
I can imagine you to be one of the gate keepers of Western Imperialism; little wonder you see Nkrumah as a threat.
His actions even inspired us in the Caribbean to gain our independence from our former colonial masters.
@Risen Africa in own imagination Kwame Nkrumah is most dangerous criminal ever rule Ghana wat happened to the big Six our independence founding members were killed at Nsawamu less Paa Willie that's Nkrumah legacy can't be wiped out and uncountable innocent souls who were killed at Nsawamu detention camp is Kwame Nkrumah alas Ngoglo Nwea his Liberian Name track record.
I'm Ghanaian and can tell you what Nkrumah achieved in his short year in office is remarkable. Basically the major infrastructures in Ghana today were all built by Nkrumah. Nothing significant has been added since he was ousted.
Instead we are just slowly losing more and more. Remember Ghana airlines? Mismanaged into bankruptcy.
@@degreeskelvin3025how did we lose more and more...? 😂
@Oxygen Alfarabi we are losing by not maintaining those infrastructure he left behind. Remember Ghana textile companies, Remember tomato factories and meat factories in upper region? Where are they now?
@Oxygen Alfarabi what Alhassan said.
Not to mention market share. A lot of the bigger companies in Ghana are all owned by foreigners. It's truly unfortunate. I was in Ethiopia for awhile, and despite all the problems in that country, their own people control their cellular networks, their own airline, a majority of their construction companies, their chain restaurants and their big shopping malls/stores. All these industries in Ghana are controlled by foreigners. Throw in the fact that apparently smugglers are making about 500mil a year from our gold and it really make you question if we still have the same independence Dr Nkrumah fought for.
@DegreesK I agree with all you 💯. I think we were very lucky we had Nkrumah at the beginning and he was able to do everything we are enjoying today. I believe Ghana would have been worse than Niger had the reactionary elements taken the country from the imperialist
I am a Cameroonian who has lived in Accra for sometime. Each time I fly into Koto Int'l Airport, I wonder why it has that name and isn't called Accra Int'l Airport, but this video has taught me why. I am so infuriated by what the US gov't did to Ghana, thereby setting a pattern for coups that would characterize much of West Africa for decades to come. The same CIA people took out Gaddaffi under President Obama as well. Seems just because they are Black doesn't mean they will reason together with us
Obama is worse than Franklin Williams who saw the plan to stage the coup d'etat. They are bastards😢
Bro!!!!
African-American here; the atrocities that America has perpetrated upon the true populist leaders of Africa will never be fully atoned for. May these leaders and martyrs rest in power.
As a South African, I understand that your people are still discriminated against to this day. Truly saddens me. I yearn for a day where all humanity can live freely and peacefully. I highly, highly doubt that will *ever* be possible with the USA dictating the world.
That wont make as forget nor forgive them
I was a teenager when Nkrumah was in power. I considered then, myself a Nkrumaist. He was a visionary leader and we in the Caribbean followed his ascension with pride that one day we would have a United States of Africa.
As a Ghanaian, I watch this with tears in my eyes. The major and long-lasting infrastructure Dr. Kwame Nkrumah built have been the main sustainers of our country till date. We must strive to keep his vision however we can. We should be willing to pursue excellent and intentional ambitions for the betterment of our African nations.
He once said, "these are not debts but investments into the future" but Kotoka, Harlley, Ankrah and Afrifa took Ghana from forward to backward thanks to CIA agents in Ghana then.
It hurts so much so see what they have done to us, it’s hard not to have so much hatred for them. I will channel that energy to do great things for Africa and see us rise and continue Nkrumah’s vision. I am a young man living in the UK and I will do my best to come back and help.
You and those like you are the future. A United Africa shall be a reality!
@@Apcmsmith Yes!
May God see you through bro 🙏🙌
I’m so sad as a Ghanaian and African. I can’t hold my tears back, the traitors were promised a fool’s paradise.
Yes😂they did get the promise of fool's paradise🎉
The current Ghanaian President uncle betrayed him!
Colonialism started many years ago. If all African leaders had a vision like Nkrumah, Africa could be much better than the so-called first world countries!!!
America is not sincere when it advocates for democracy when it does the contrary.
Thanks so much for letting us know about the insight of Ghana and Nkrumah. 😂😂😂 Excellent work 👏
If all African leaders had done like Nkrumah, Africa could have been seriously choked by sanctions from the west
Nkrumah was the downfall of West Africa. He was a mam of vision but he had poor communication, interpersonal and negotiation skills and only negotiated bad deals which made his country and West Africa as a whole, weaker
@@tvs9978
He was going to be a communist dictator like we always see. There are still some that are leaders in africa today. That was his main problem. Pushing anything onto the people, whether it's communism or capitalism without their consent and full understanding will cost you. People need to mostly be on board with what you govern them with
@@blackblaze5271 Nkrumah was never Communist. That was American propaganda. He was a Socialist
@@blackblaze5271 this is HILARIOUS! If Nkurumah was the person you described then he would have been a darling to the West. Though I would say he was CLUELESS on statecraft, evident on how he handled Komla Agbeli Gbedemah.
The spirit of African unity and the African continental government lives on,kwame Nkrumah could never die !!
The spirit die with LATE KWAME NKRUMAH nothing left
Stop it with the defeatism. Stop with the lies. SPIRIT NEVER DIES! AFRICA will be UNITED whether you believe it or not! If you don't like it, GET OUT OF THE WAY TRAITOR!
Not in this age...
Everybody gon' respect the shooter, but the one in front of the gun lives forever 🎶
@@ursamajor6347 I agree!
As a Ghanaian I am tearing. The downfall on Ghana was the day Nkrumah was overthrown
The downfall of Ghana was tge6 day Nkrumah usurped the leadership of danquah and led Ghana down a path of destruction
Not just Ghana but the whole of Africa.
And to a large effect thr downfall of Africa. The west re wolf's in sheep clothe
Basically the downfall of Africa
The current Ghanaian President uncle betrayed him!
as an American, I'm learning about many good African leaders today
Africa will be united and produce true justice on this planet. This CANNOT AND WILL NOT be stopped. It is beyond individuals or heroes. It is the divine fate.
amen....ashe
i hope im still alive tho
This is the word of the Lord!!
I am so sad watching this video over and over. It breaks my heart. What could Ghana have been today? Being a member of Ghana Young Pioneer Youth, I could never in the life me forgive those creeps who committed this heinous crime against their "mother Ghana". I will never love America as long as I live!
Its so unfortunate because Ghana and Africa as a whole would have been so far ahead today
Rest in power Kwame you never going to be forgotten 🙏 ❤️ 💔 😢.
We usually see the value of a great leader after he/she is gone. Kwame Nkrumah was a great leader not just for Ghana but for Africa as a whole. He will always be missed and remembered🇬🇭😥
😥😥😥 tears running down as I’m a Ghanaian watching this 🇬🇭🙏🏾
Am a Ghanaian and I always cry when I see stories like this. IMF is a criminal organization and they have plunged our country in so much debt we can escape them even if we try
We shall in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, no demon in hell is not stoping this rising! In the mighty name of Jesus Christ I uproot their claws from all black nations around the world.
The IMF is the financial wing of the CIA.
@@TheTruthSpeakerTV I know you believe in Christ. I mean no offense. But isn't strange that the people who came with bibles left with all the rights to the land and it's resources. But we still holding Bibles with empty stomachs. They have vaults full of African gold they own in countries with no working mines. Maybe this version of Jesus they believe in isn't the one for us Africans. We need to find the real Jesus. Clearly the one they gave us is not on our side.
@@mrsoshadabaadman I am not offended to be a servant of the Lord Jesus Christ, for He is the way, the truth, and the light/LIFE. Let me share this with you, brother: To focus on the pain and the stings of the past keeps us stagnated; with that said, see this: the bible is the story of US - black people. We are the seeds of Abraham and the true Israelites. So it's not holding it with an empty stomach but seeing it not through the lens of the colonial. In the bible, we know that Israel was disobedient, so for our forefathers' disobedience, Father said and did scatter us all over the world - to endure pain and suffering for turning away from Him and indulging other gods and other people's beliefs/idolatry, etc. - for we were and are a Holy People. So for over 400 years, as stated, Israel will be sold into slavery (as was done). There will be no remembrance of us (as stated in the bible) - hence it is evident by us black people not knowing who we are today, our true identity - which others have stolen. Still, again it was for our forefather's disobedience way before slavery. Now with that said: the bible tells our story and who God Adonia Yahweh and His Son Jesus Christ is to us and we to Him - His chosen people. So as in the bible, He gave our forefathers over to our enemies, so too, we are still paying for the sins of our forefathers. Now let's start with slavery: these people who know our true identity - as it is stated in the Koran, we are the children of the book, and as the enslaved people who still had a sense of their identity, used the word Yehudi - and were called Yuhudi which in the Biblical Hebrew word Yehudi, meaning "from the Kingdom of Judah - all traces of this has been erased again it is written in the bible that is how our story goes for an appointed time. So we have now established this fact - they know who we are. Well, to trick and further remove any sense of our identity (again, the bible states there will be no remembrance of us when scattered) - as I tell my older brother, it is a trick inside of a trick. How? I use your story and tell you I am gifting you something new that you do not know. Like they took a present from us and wrapped it differently, but the content is still the same and said hey, here is something you never had. Now we have this established and know how they tricked us into believing it was new and that we were uncivilized and needed Jesus - over the centuries, this action did a number on us. Thus many attacked the bible as their weapon, which was used to make us go further away from our story - and to establish another who stole our true identity. Now the world views us as less than others, and our hate for our story brews daily for lack of knowledge. But they know who we are and our true might if united and who our God is: Read the book of Esther and see what happened when they had the mandate to kill our people and how God rose for us and made even those who hated us join us against those who persecuted us. With that said, we ought not to fight our battles. He will, for He has always shown up for Israel. There are many stories in the book written about us - that shows when we are obedient how He defends us. The real Jesus is the one in our story who came to His people first - us, the Israelites. Brother, I want you to understand that God and Jesus do not work the way man's mind works - there is a punishment on us from our forefathers, and the only way for Him to be on our side is for us to be on His. If we remain conformed to the world and believe that we were given a lie, the enemy's trick, He will never show up mighty for us. Look at our story in the bible when He handed them over to the enemy - He never left them nor forsaken them, He did not incline His earn to them for disobedience - as a parent disciplines a child. So He is for us; he said He would never leave us nor forsake us; even through our trials and the prison of Satan, our job is to hold our FAITH in Him and focus on Him - cry out to Him in prayer. Time to let what they did go because, in truth and fact, they do not have any bearing over our story - we can change our story by not focusing on what they did this and that to us, but by knowing who we are and our legacy - and how we turn His face back to us - by repenting for the sins of our forefathers and ours and truly living right and educating others. It is time we change the narrative and stop giving them credit for nothing - it is our story and will always remain our story. Also, we are called to above ALL love - self, our neighbors, and even our enemies; hence we can't harbor hate, nor will WE Israel play the card of hate towards those who persecuted and still persecuting us - but we will lead in love and trust our Lord that HE will show their hand mighty in this generation for us. But again, it starts with our awakening to the truth of who we are and repenting and living right. I was where you are now before the Holy Spirit led me to the truth. There are many black people around the world awakening to who we are. This movement means it is time for us, Israel, to rise up, and HE spoke this to me prophetically - "Rise UP, Israel, the hour is Now," so rise up, brother, and seek the kingdom of God. Remember: Every punishment has an expiration date, as with parents and kids, teachers and students, etc. So our time is now to turn back and see Him work, restore us - but again, we need to shed the old skin and see that we are the children of the book. And no matter what we endured, it was to get us back to that place of seeking Him and serving Him only - no other God. Hence we see many being led to the truth to educate others about the truth. It is not about religion nor denomination - it is about the TRUTH - and there is one truth - doubt and the second opinion come from club satan (cast them out; they oppose the truth as with the thought they gave us our own story - no it is ours and it was used to deprogram us from self and reprogram us to believe it is their creation), so listen to your Spirit, seek the truth, and live on the eternal path. I love you, Israel, my beloved brother, don't harden your heart - wake up and come out of the darkness - there is one God and one Jesus (and our persecution, etc., is not personal). Remember Israel: we have and will always be His chosen, and no one can stop this - His covenant with our forefathers still stands for us; we need to get back in obedience. One love.

I hope and pray we will live long to see that day 😢😢😢😢😢
Under western control, I doubt it
If Nkrumah had succeeded in his industrialization drive, Ghana would have been African Europe.
So true! Cheers
We would have been more than Europe
Hmmm Kwame Nkrumah
Such a true African and personable character. RIP Kwame Nkrumah
Nkrumah made his share of mistakes (who doesn't?) but he remains one of the best leaders in post colonial Africa.
His Pan-African vision, still inspire many of us all over the continent.
Great video, please continue with this series.
Happy to hear @musamusahi! Many thanks
To err his human!
I remember reading the story of nkrumah for a college course and i legit cried when i read what they did to this man.
I’m even crying as a Ghanaian but I believe that seed will germinate again
I think you should do even longer videos brother, the youtue algorithm ACTUALLY pushes longer videos more.. please dont be deterred by attention span.. we all watch while we do the dishes or cook a nice meal &eat while watching your videos.

This brother wanted black Unity around the world. They will remember him for what he was for.
Thank you for covering the *Osagyefo,* which means *Saviour* in the native Ashanti dialect. Dr. Kwame Nkrumah is the greatest African political figure of the 20th Century. Ghana and Africa stand up! 🇬🇭💯
Much appreciated! Osagyefo, African of the century! Stay tuned for more

Native twi language.. there’s nothing like Ashanti language. Ashanti is a state, not a language! The twi language is spoken by most Akan tribes who are not part Ashantis confederation.

@@kofisam4106there are different Twi dialects like akuapim, Kwahu, bono, akyem etc. Asante is the most common, that's probably why he mentioned Asante.
A great episode! What happened to Nkrumah was unfortunate, and just one of a litany of tragedies before and after him. Africa will get her act together one day.
I remember being so angry at the one done by the New Africa channel. I couldn't believe an African channel had latched onto the western narrative of Nkrumah and was lying with such careless abandon. Thanks Risen Africa for this, and for posing the all important question of whether conditions got better after Nkrumah. As I've always maintained, Ghana's economy is still shakily hanging on the foundation Nkrumah laid for it, because not much has been added since. It's sad.
He’s a Nigerian… those guys they hate anything Ghanaian.
Our downfall as Ghanaians was when Nkrumah was overthrown. The man was a true visionary. All the universities and significant infrastructures in Ghana were done under his leadership. I think another reason for his overthrow was that Ghanaians were gruntling that Nkrumah was spending Ghana's resources on other African countries' liberations instead of focusing on Ghana.
For lack of vision a nation would perish eh, thank God the Ghana today and the other nations shall rise and all those in bed with those who do not love this land and its people shall face the wrath of God, in the mighty name of Jesus Christ

@@steve3288 How is he sending you guys?
@@TheTruthSpeakerTV he came with the promise that he is going to make things easier for us but as i am talking to you now things are hard and local businesses can't strive because our banks are giving us higher loan rates like about 46% interest rate whilst foreign companies are getting it around 10% so automatically he is kicking local businesses to the white.
He came with Ghana beyond aid but when it comes to loan debt he is the highest with low output from the loan and he is recieving all kinds of aid from the west. Now as i am talking to you now Ghana doesn't belong to us.

This is a superb analysis of The West's interference in the African development because they are afraid of losing their grip on the raw materials that they get almost freely. It is not surprising to hear this story. It is a repetition of the West's actions in the whole of the African Continent. and elsewhere where they stand to lose their ill gotten materials. It is a pity some of us Africans are easily bought for pieces of silver and so perpetuate the deceit.
Nkrumah is the greatest African ever. We must first see each other as brothers separated by false barriers. Then think what will help each other. We must unite against fake politicians and get rid of the Foreign democracy. We must initiate an African democracy. One day our children will be free. Forward with Nkrumah one Africa, Forward with Mandela's one Africa, Forward with Gaddafi's one Africa. Live long brothers
Very nostalgic and heartbreaking yet informative and educational. Ghana's downfall was the overthrow of Nkrumah. The sad reality is that the offspring of those used to destroy Ghana's forward movement towards economic independence are today being used to destroy the little gains Ghana has made since Nkrumah and to promote American and Western ideologies like LGBTQ++ in Ghana.
Do it and let me see it every day
This is my things I want to see
I love seeing this things
Great content and analysis, The US has ocastrated many Coup d'état around the world, which reminds me of what happened to Gaddafi, Sadam Hussein and Patrice Lamumba.
Yes but almost all happened during the cold war. Which was something the soviets also did. This kind of mindset is also why many of these countries got independence in the first place because the u.s. and USSR both wanted to make more nations side with them by any means. Now, they could both not care much unless another cold war comes.
@@erica.7231 The US likes to paint itself as the saint but it isn't. They use cruel methods to propagate their ideologies
@@erica.7231 wrong, trying to compare the ussr and America in this regard is absolutely ridiculous to anyone know knows the history of the era.
The only areas you can make an argument that the ussr overthrew governments is in eastern europe, but even then they were responding to western plots and did not establish colonial, extractive relations with the eastern bloc nations. The one other case could be made in Afghanistan, but that was an exception rather than the rule.
The US orchestrated coups in every continent of the world to maintain colonial relations in a “post-colonial world”.
The USSR supported liberation struggles across the global south, whether opportunistically or not, they provided necessary weaponry and finance to such groups and did not impose their system onto them.
@@Terzy The ussr literally invaded iran and stayed there until they gave them the resources they wanted. In afghanistan they killed more people than died in vietnam.
You seem never have to looked into the history. Look at japan. The communist party was popular in japan but the soviets forced them to act violently or they wouldn't support them. They caused upheavel in japanese society. Well they don't exist anymore Lithuania incident is another one. How many do you need? they destroyed the 4th largest source of fresh water and central asians still suffer today from it.
They are not even communists so what bs lie are you trying make about them. The vanguard party is not communist. They dismantled the worker organizations and that also wasn't communist. They never crushed capitalism, they were trying to crush anything against the soviet system. You take their similar actions to the u.s. and you call it great lmao. Ans as I said they supported them much like the u.s. to get them on their side. They also backstabbed used puppets just like the u.s. You think there isn't someone like you to justify u.s. actions? you guys are a dime a dozen
@@TerzyUmm no. The US overthrew DEMOCRATIC governments in Iran, Chile, Honduras through CIA backed coups so yh the USA does NOT have clean hands. They also OVERTHREW Aristide in Haiti. All of these nations DARED to want to have CONTROL over their resources and to have social democratic governments. The US supported the dictator Batista in Cuba, the Duvaliers in Haiti.
Very well researched and reported. It is sad that some of the coup plotters are still holding Ghana down today. However Nkruma's vision for Africa still remains stronger today and must be addressed one way or the other.
In the name of Jesus Christ Africa will rise as the power house she is!
Nkruma was our of the best visionary Afracans had ever been in the continent. May his vision ever be in vain for his our generations

After overthrowing him, they never advanced his industrialisation and infrastructural drive. But rather started privatising and enriching themselves. Nkrumah never had personal properties and his descendants still lives normal lives. Nkrumah never dies.

Couldn't agree more! Cheers!
My words cannot express my heartfelt gratitude and thanks for the piece! As an African-American making plans to live in Ghana, arriving at the airport in Accra for the first time, I wondered why the airport was not named Dr. Kwame Nkrumah International? I love Ghana, but there are so many things wrong there, mainly with the leadership! There must be a sea change in Ghana, to reclaim the vision and dream of this great man. And the first step towards this is the removal of the traitor"s name from our airport!
I couldn't agree more @panafricanspirit
We don't have leaders anymore but puppets of the western powers. If anyone goes contrarily that person will be demonised in the mainstream media as a dictator then sanctioned to look unpopular with in the eyes of it's citizens with the hardship that comes with it...
Thank you for such great educational content. Ghana's downfall was the overthrow of Kwame Nkrumah.
We see the assassinations and know the truth and Gaddafi suffered the same fate. We hate it here. We hate what they do and how they treat us. I long for the day we unite and rise up.
This is high quality content. Thank you for boldly laying out the facts. This is not "conspiracy theory" but, unfortunately, historical facts.
Similarities between Gaddafi and Nkrumah 's visions and their end is not just a mare coincidence.

Don't forget Jamaica's Marcus Garvey the first person who initiated the United Africa.
The Americans did the same to him; he was the first to stand up against the USA and their appalling treatment of African American, he also started the back to Africa movements..
Kwame was a staunch follower of Garvey's teaching and policies.
The single Black Star in Ghana's flag was taken from Marcus Garvey's Black Starliner.
Back in the days and still most Jamaicans, only know about Ghana 🇬🇭, love Ghanaian,want to go only to Ghana because it was seen as the mother land.
Back then were told 70% of Jamaicans have Ghanaian ancestry, the 30% split between Nigeria, Sierra Leon and a bit from The Gambia 🇬🇲. Don't know how true it is,but ask any Jamaican where in Africa his ancestors came from, whether he knows or not ; it's always gonna be Ghana.
Back in slavery days Ghana and Jamaica have everything in common.
The British used Ghana's Seaport to ship the slaves to Jamaica to get sorted out for North America or other Caribbean countries.
Jamaica played or used in a pivotal way, because it had the Largest SLAVE BASE in the world it was the sorting office.(slaves from all over came there get sorted and shipped to other destinations)
It was a lucrative business for Great Britain, back then. Kingston was one of the richest cities behind Lisbon and New York.
Very Interesting indeed and very nostalgic. Kwame Nkrumah's inspiring ideals and his achievements will long continue to encourage every true African to continue to strive for all he represented for Africans.
The Spirit of African Unity and the desire for African Union government shall continue to inspire our struggle. Kwame Nkrumah can never die.
I love all the information you give us. Interesting. Educational. Inspiring.
This is an amazing analysis, a historical brief that brings tears in patriotic sons of Africa. We lost our forefathers, and they were betrayed by their own. We still/continue suffer consequences of the betrayal
Pure and straight forward. Julius Malema is our Kwame Nkrumah.....
Very informative. Living in the West it is not common to hear much about the true history of major events that have affected the Continent. The graphics are very well done and effective for illustrating the text. Thank you, Sir. ❤
same here and the reason is they dont want US TO KNOW
Kwame nkrumah is the best president ever in Ghana 😊
I've always heard of America's bullying tactics against countries whose political ideologies they don't subscribe to and have seen its impact in my own country, Jamaica. However, your video was very revealing and informative, thank you for the presentation. I've subscribed and hope to get more content.
i can only shed tears at this moment. Let the world know there is a new Nkrumah not yet unborn so there is hope.
I almost cried to hear such a narrative and as an African child it breaks my heart to know the downfall of our great leader. The white supremacy has and is a hindrance to the development of an African continent
With the world pulling away and waking to US terrorism, war crimes and economic enslavement of the Global South, you must continue. Please, you are doing a service to the people of the Global South. It's invaluable
You've made my day! Thank you so much for your invaluable support! I'll keep at it
The current Ghanaian president Nana Akufo Addo's Father and uncle were the very people the CIA was working with and were the ones who hated Nkrumah for his industrialization.
Nana Akufo Addo would later hoodwinked most young Africans into believing he was a "Pan-African simply because he spoke up to the French president Macron in a staged up press conference.
The ruling party of Nana did not believe in state enterprises. They believed in the state to remain poorer while individuals who would rob the nation's coffers would become wealthy in what the ruling party and Nana termed "property owning democracy".
In this policy, they believed in the US capitalism which is a result of waging wars in other countries in order to loot their resources for their multi-national
corporations.
Nana and his government unfortunately have no country to wage ILLIGAL wars on in order to loot their resources for immense wealth creation as the US / NATO is doing, so they turned their "weak war efforts" inwardly on the poor citizens of the nation and on their own environment where the state had sanctioned illegal mining that had led to polluting all the rivers in the land, and also selling landing rights to the US military for fees therefore jeopardizing the sovereignty of "Kwame Nkrumah's Ghana".
Ghana would have been an industrious nation with more jobs for all Ghanaian and other African youths, and the nation Ghana would have been in a better financial state where we don't have to be going around begging any nation especially the Chinese who are opposite to Nana and his government ideology run thousands of "State-run Enterprises" that became the source of their vast wealth.
@@Agboka The greatest leaders of the past were murdered, those of today are silenced. But if we want those of tomorrow to have a chance, we have to remember the past and not allow time to fog our memory or soften our resolve. At every opportunity we have to show the truth.
I would like to commend Risen African for such great scholarship and research. Their short and brief presentations are well put together and high scholarship quality.
Excellent documentary. It really hurts me as a Ghanaian that he was overthrown in such manner
Thank you for putting this out here. My dad had always told me this was the case and I've made it a point to educate folks on this as well
Africa deserves it's right to come together as one united continent like America and other places around the world. God Bless You and God Bless all of us on this planet🕊️🕊️🕊️
Nkrumah never dies 🔥
He was born in 1909, or about 114 years ago. He died at the age of 62 in 1972. He believed Africa's only hope was the United States of Africa, one country with a single currency.
I want to cry so sad
No kingdom exist forever. The downfall of all demons ,who call themselves westerners will surely come.
I cried throughout your video. It was very educational and professional. Thanks so much for the information.
What have bewitched Africans. Why are we so weak ,and wicked to ourselves. Respect from the upper west side, New York city, God bless us all. 🎉
I have been following your educative videos for a long time now and i must say that you are doing a great job by informing Africans of their history which the neocolonialists would never want Africans to know. Keep the fire burning and never relent
@odawaeric Comments like this get me through the tough days! Many thanks for always watching brother! Cheers!
@@RisenAfrica Thanks for taking your time to respond to my comments.
You will realize that there is a new set of African leaders who are no longer intimidated by the colonial western super powers; and are having the guts to tell the neocolonialists the truth to their face, without fear of being toppled or assassinated?
In this regard, the president of Namibia, Kenya and Rwanda are making Africa proud.
I strongly support your initiative to inform, and research on our past in the most eloquent manner which will inspire upcoming Pan-Africanists ro re look at the trajectory that they need to take mother Africa
As a Ghanaian, I'm so sad that the Osagyefo was dealt with in that manner.
This was excellent! Do the same for Thomas Sankara and Patrice Lumumba. Asante sana
Fantastic suggestions! I'll definitely work on these next! Many thanks
God bless your narrative.
Has Ghana been better since Dr. K. Nkrumah coup? 😥
A true leader who was never for himself,he was for Ghana and was for Africa. Ghana would have been far from where we are now,it is very sad.I will like to see one of his children become a flag bearer,follow his steps,it's not late,it is possible OR may be a grandchild🙏
I second this! Nkrumah was eager to see Ghana and Africa get true independence
Very sad for us as Africans, especially Ghanaians... Ignorance is killing us till today
It’s especially sad how we don’t give him the praise he deserves as Ghanaians
So true @paauquacyaquah Information is power!
I know, right..
Say it again ooo, hmmm... my people 😢😢😢 it's sad
@@calebnana9408
Because we already know the history. If you know your history much of this about nkrumah isn't a surprise to you other than him being portrayed as almost faultless here. Power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely. So I don't fault any of the people who removed him out of power. I think people in ghana have the right balanced view of him, one that doesn't mindlessly worship historical figures. All people must be made accountable
There are already examples of 'revolutionary' dictators on the continent. People who were meant to become heroes but become villains, or simply couldn't withstand what the west threw at them. We know what things could have looked like
Excellent work. Please continue to publish videos like this.
Most definitely will @firstblessings Many thanks!
They did thesame to Gaddafi and honestly I'm scared for the south African giant honorable malema.
Here in Nigeria, we love and believe in his vision for one Africa and how he stands openly for it and always loud about it.
I'm a Mozambican, this man was an African leader not only a gana leader but for the whole continent alongside with samora Machel, muammar Gaddafi, Thomas Sankara and ofcoz Patricio lumumba
Love it, more of it. You could do a solid 2 hours on this topic alone!
In fact the truth of the darkest days of the history in Ghana is out,Nkrumah was a Great Man with a vision for Ghanians and entire African continent developments in mentally Economic growth and infrastructures and finally the liberation movement for freedom from enslavement and the unity of the entire African continent, and this was a treat to our colonial masters,so they decided to overthrow him through our own peoples through their selfish interest that was senseless and so sad 😭
May the spirit and vision of Osagefo Dr. Kwame Nkrumah long continue.
Indeed Nkwame Nkuruma was a true African Leader ...
Black America ,loving the info!
Wow thanks for the lesson this is deep and so true I’m glad the world is seeing thru America and European Allie’s now
Best video so far on Osagyefo Kwame Nkrumah - the founder of Ghana and Pan-Africanism.
Extremely educational video on Nkrumah!!! I learned so much about Nkrumah's contribution to African Liberation that I never knew before. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
