    I would ask him to Give Ghana the password to the ”Oman Ghana” account because i believe Ghana desparately needs that money. By the way, HAPPY BIRTHDAY to Kwame Nkrumah. Hope he’s got a BIG smile on his face in his grave right now.

    Cheers Black and Bola

    I would have asked him to unite all the politicians and then set up some plans for the country which every President will follow, irrespective of the Political party he belongs.

    Talking about the public schools i think the students are just not helping themselves because i was living in the same house with two friends who both attended a very well known private school but i did better than them in the BECE that we all sat the same year. i attended a public school and i had agregate 16 and one of them had agregate 17 whiles the other had agregate 22. so i think that if the parents of the public students get time for their wards they will also do well.But still the government needs to do more to help the public schools in terms of infrastructure and also mornitor the teachers periodically to keep them on their toes. i believe therefore that if all the stake holders do their part the students at the public students will do better THANK YOU JOY FM.

    He will hate to see a seating government celebrating his 100th birthday from the seat of a colonial master (ie the castle) he fought independence from, and he will thank a past government for restoring his cherished seat of government (ie the jubilee house/flagstaff house). lets walk Nkrumah’s talk.

    I WOULD HAVE ASKED HIM TO PUT SOME SENCE INTO NDC AND NPP FOLLOWERS THAT PETROLEUM MUST NEVER BE BROUGHT INTO POLITICAL AFFAIRS AND DO WELL TO BRIDGE THE GAP BETWEEN THE POOR AND RICH

    Ghana would have been worse… If not for Nkrumah Ghana would have been better than this.

    i will ask him to re-orient the minds of the people of ghana and for that matter the youth and constantly trumpet it down the minds of the youth of Ghana the beauty of being a Ghanaian

    He would be enjoying the freedom of speech he denied Ghanaians of.The Nkrumaish talk only about the industries and schools he built but forget about the fact that true prosperity comes when people do things freely.People call him the architect of Ghana’s independence but they should tell me if he wasn’t brought in by the founders of U.G.C.C.If the answer is yes then what was the aim of that organisation before they paid to bring Nkrumah back to Ghana?Nkrumah did okay but he could have done better if he encouraged shared ideas rather than suppressing opposition .The10mil.pounds sterlings he gave Guinea was it endorsed by the then Ghanaian parliament-if there was any.Three hundred fifty million pounds left us in the 50’s could have industrialised the whole Ghana but not the few we see in Tema and one or two we see in other three regions.The Nkrumaish should remember that even Nkrumah himself acknowledged the contribution of the opposition to the fight for independence .That is why he called a certain group THE BIG SIX. Find out who make up this group and tell me if they don’t deserve priase or better if Nkrumah’s holiday shouldn’t be re-named OUR FREEDOM FIGHTERS DAY as Americans declare Lincoln’s birthday as PRESIDENTS DAY to honour all their presidents.THANKS JOY FM.

    i think Nkrumah as a president did well for Ghana and Africa,and if he was able to achieve his aim Africa would have been one of the best continent.but not withstanding the continent is enjoying.
