In her account of events that culminated in the birth of Kwame Nkrumah, the woman reveals some interesting yet not easily verifiable information about Nkrumah and his family. She claims to have witnessed everything about Nkrumah’s birth, right from when it was confirmed by a fetish priest to when Nkrumah was finally delivered. According to her, Nkrumah’s mother could not believe that she had conceived and entered a bet with the fetish priest. She disclosed that her closest role in Nkrumah’s birth came as a result of complications experienced by Madam Nyaniba ahead of delivery. It was her duty to grind the herbs and ensure that Nkrumah’s mother had a smooth delivery.
