But (and it's a complex debate) I do not agree that "some people declined to consider themselves great by opting to blame Kwame Nkrumah for their woes in prison".The Authorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11618359074984443470noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7564356874518161776.post-43655283706471498502011-09-22T21:01:18.997+00:002011-09-22T21:01:18.997+00:00@ Paul

And history would bear this out. What I am saying is that, people who love their skins too much are not borne to be leaders. For instance, today, across Africa, I can't point of one president fit enough to rule his/her country. These are leaders who follow. Afraid of stepping on stones. Recently, AU vote to recognise the Libyan Interim govt. What a pity. These leaders are afraid to speak against the almighty.<br /><br />That's why I strongly support Founder's day and not Founders' Day. For some people declined to consider themselves great by opting to blame Kwame Nkrumah for their woes in prison.<br /><br />Yes, I also digressed. Nkrumah committed peccadilloes but so too did every great person (good or bad). Mandela acquired military training and ANC was still listed by the American govt as a Terrorist organisation, 15 years after Mandela's release from prison and a decade after his presidency. We need not afraid of what we are doing if it would lead to goodness. When it is done posterity would remember us. When we do nothing, we shall remain in darkness.ImageNationshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06021414643103601330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7564356874518161776.post-85742609760598365602011-09-21T14:39:39.883+00:002011-09-21T14:39:39.883+00:00Thought provoking, once again I am reminded of how...Thought provoking, once again I am reminded of how ordinary the people who do extraordinary things are...somehow some way the people who make it and are deemed successful have an"X" factor whatever that might be.Paul Boakye-Datteyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15853865590190658067noreply@blogger.com
