Maybe one day I’ll know what it’s like to feel accomplished after an achievement and not just relief
Over the years and in the course of our eight years out of government- working in the then office of the former President brought me into contact with so many different groups and individuals- yesterday in the halls and on the sidelines of #UNGA I bumbled into two of my favorite young tech guys! @gyaigyimii and Nene @The1957News! Amazing young men who continue to inspire me to believe in people irrespective!
David Hundeyin and Big Mack will never show you this declassified CIA document from 1981 talking about how they want Nigeria to be successful.
They will rather misinterpret the Kissinger report and call themselves investigative journalists

Kwame Nkrumah will forever be remembered but you, you’ll be forgotten. And even if you’re not forgotten, anytime your name is mentioned, all people will remember is the pain, hardship and turmoil you brought upon your people. @NAkufoAddo
We love Nkrumah. We also love Danquah, the fathers & mothers of Ghana. Big Six, chiefs, market women, farmers - all sacrificed. Ghana wasn't built by one man. Happy Founders' Day! 🇬🇭 #FoundersDay@acitygh
Today, we celebrate and honour the life of Osagyefo Dr. Kwame Nkrumah — Ghana’s founding leader, Pan-Africanist, and one of Africa’s most influential voices for freedom and unity, whose vision and enduring contribution continue to shape Ghana and inspire the African continent. 🇬🇭🌍 Happy Founder’s Day, Ghana.
NKRUMAH’S AMAZING DEEDS
Happy birthday to the great Osagyefo (a.k.a. the Redeemer, as he is called in the Akan language), Dr Kwame Nkrumah, who was born on this day in 1909.
Kwame Nkrumah was a brilliant Pan-African strategist, theorist, and political leader. He is famous for having "brought Pan-Africanism home to Africa," as some say. After attending the Fifth Pan-African Congress in Manchester, United Kingdom, in 1945, Nkrumah abandoned his doctoral dissertation to return to Ghana and liberate his country through a positive action campaign.
He founded the Convention People's Party, a mass organisation that understood his slogan, "Seek ye first the political kingdom", meaning that African countries should prioritise independence above all else.
However, independence alone was not enough for Ghana. He understood that Ghana's independence "is meaningless unless it is linked up with the total liberation of Africa." Throughout his entire life, he fought tooth and nail for the total liberation and unification of Africa under scientific socialism.
Nkrumah's contribution to the African liberation cause earned him respect and admiration across the continent. He also contributed to Pan-African thought by authoring several revolutionary books, including the widely read 'Neo-Colonialism, the Last Stage of Imperialism.'
