@talkingafrica: 116 years to this day, the Founder and first President of Ghana, Osagyefo Kwame Nkrumah was born. For his heroic leadership in Ghana and Africa’s fight for liberation from colonial rule, he remains an eternal icon for all freedom-loving people. In spite of the unrelenting efforts by the internal and external enemies of Africa to demonise his person and efforts, the masses, rightly, continue to recognise that he was a man who genuinely wanted the best for Africa. As the Osagyefo himself said, death can never extinguish the torch which he lit in Ghana and Africa. He, certainly, has been proven right on this—like on many other things too. On this day, we salute the Osagyefo(redeemer) and re-dedicate ourselves to propagating his ideas and vision to the world. Happy Founder’s Day to the good people of Ghana! 🇬🇭✊🏿
