HAPPY MEMORIAL DAY OF KWAME NKRUMAH – PPP
We join all Ghanaians in commemorating the 111th birthday of Osagyefo Dr. Kwame Nkrumah, the man who made the greatest sacrifice in our fight for independence from colonial rule.
In memory of this auspicious day, we urge the youth of Ghana to reflect on the various legacies and actions of our ancestors that have left us today not only infrastructure development, but also a sense of discipline, support for the local industry, commitment to high standards, and the history and culture that nurtures us.
An important milestone, worthy of praise, was the Nkrumah Accelerated Development Plan for Education, which produced many brilliant professionals across the political divide because it was free for all.
As we celebrate this day, let us consider our blessings and be proud to fight to curb corruption, boost the economy, consolidate democratic governance, deal with insecurity, and honor Nkrumah’s vision of industrializing the nation with Ghanaians on the dominant heights of the economy.
May we never forget that governments will come and go, but citizens will always be the fundamental basis of what is real and worthy.
We wish all Ghanaians a happy Founders Day celebration!
Wake up Ghana!
Signed:
Paa Kow Ackon
National secretary
