In 1961, something unheard of before happened.

A Russian surgeon who was stationed at the military base in Antarctica had appendicitis.

He was the only Doctor and surgery was the only solution.
Due to the harsh weather at that time, he could not be evacuated.

His name was Leonid Rogonov, he was 27 years.
He instructed the non medics in camp to bring a mirror and light sources.

He injected himself, he opened his belly, put his hand to locate his intestines himself. Used the mirror to located the appendix.
He cut the appendix and sewed himself back together.

This operation lasted 2 hours, it was successful. He took time off to rest and in 2 weeks he was perfectly fine and back to work.

He later died 39 years later of Cancer of the lungs at 66 years.

Kwame Nkrumah pictured with his mother soon after arriving back in the Gold Coast, 1947.

In 1947, after years of study, political organizing, and activism abroad, Kwame Nkrumah returned to the Gold Coast, now known as Ghana.

Before becoming one of Africa's most influential independence leaders, Nkrumah spent nearly a decade in the United States and later continued his political work in Britain. During those years, he was exposed to Pan-African ideas and movements that shaped his vision for the future of Africa. He believed that African people should govern themselves and that political freedom was essential for economic and social progress.

His return to the Gold Coast marked the beginning of a new chapter. Within a few years, he emerged as the leading voice of the independence movement, mobilizing ordinary workers, farmers, students, and traders in the struggle against colonial rule. In 1957, Ghana became the first sub-Saharan African colony to achieve independence in the modern era, and Nkrumah became the country's first Prime Minister before later serving as its first President.

Today in 'things you didn't know because nobody teaches them in school', some of Kwame Nkrumah's most important financiers and loyal supporters who brought him all the way from jail to power were wealthy Ghanaian women.
