In 1934, Dr.Kwame Nkrumah applied to the Lincoln University for an admission to study. One year past and he had not received an offer or a response.
He then wrote an emergency letter to the Dean of Students at the University in 1935 reminding him of his request for an admission to study at the university.
Kwame Nkrumah arrived in Philadelphia in 1935 to begin undergraduate study at Lincoln University. After completing a bachelorโs degree in Sociology magna cum laude, Lincoln admitted him to its Theological Seminary in 1939 for an additional degree in Sacred Theology.
It was at this time, however, that Nkrumah began concurrent enrollment at the University of Pennsylvania in the hopes of acquiring multiple degrees simultaneously. Supporting himself through a precarious combination of scholarships and seasonal work in the segregated shipyards of Philadelphia, Nkrumah regularly visited Harlem and Washington to speak on anti-imperial themes in churches, on street corners, at political rallies, and in classrooms. In so doing, he managed to meet such prominent intellectuals of the African diaspora as C.L.R. James, Nnamdi Azikiwe, and Marcus Garvey. As he later recalled in his autobiography, โLife would have been so much easier if I could have devoted all my time to study. As things were, however, I was always in need of money.โ
After receiving his Masterโs degree from Pennโs Graduate School of Education in 1941, Nkrumah began another program of study with the Department of Philosophy on a University Scholarship. His advisor Glen Morrow noted that he satisfied the requirements for a Masterโs degree in Philosophy in 1943, and by 1944 it appears that he had passed his preliminary exams for a doctorate. He then began working as a Twi instructor for Zelig Harris in a new African Studies graduate group, and in 1945 he left the United States for London and Manchester. He finally returned to the Gold Coast in 1947.

Their unfinished mission for environmental justice must now be accomplished in earnest.
President John Dramani Mahama has directed the Minister for Finance, Dr. Cassiel Ato Forson, to assume additional responsibility as Minister for Defence.
The President has also appointed the Minister for Lands and Natural Resources, Emmanuel Kofi Armah Buah, to act as Minister for Environment, Science, Technology and Innovation until further notice.
These interim appointments follow the tragic death of the substantive Defence and Environment Ministers in a fatal helicopter crash.

I commend PM Sports Foundation for empowering climate leadership through sport and gender advocacy. At the Accra Sports Stadium Media Hub, I led a presentation which focused on the impact of climate change on sports, communities and the role of the girl child in climate action.
