A staunch activist of the Convention Peoples Party (CPP) and a Lecturer at the Legon Center for International Affairs (LECIA), University of Ghana, Dr. Vladimir Antwi Danso, has advocated for a broad-based composition of the members of the planning committee of the late Dr. Kwame Nkrumah�s centenary celebration.
According to him, the committee is �skewed� as all of the members are pro-Nkrumaists.
�Composition of the committee should be broad-based, all-inclusive. If I had my way, the activities should be national, more national less partisan. I plead for this,� he added.
Speaking on PeaceFm�s �Kokrokoo�, Dr. Antwi Danso stressed that Kwame Nkrumah was �above the politics of Ghana,� as he is widely acknowledged as the person who really emancipated Africa.
�Nkrumah will have his faults as a human being, no two ways about that, but had it not been for him, the two of us (you and I Kwame), will never be speaking on radio,� he said.
