Although no official of the Convention People’s Party (CPP) has been heard so far reacting to comments by former President John Kufuor that Dr Kwame Nkrumah killed our democracy, Ghana’s first president will speak for himself even in death, Ernesto Yeboah, a former youth organiser of the CPP, has said. Mr Kufuor had said that Kwame Nkrumah plunged the country into chaos and virtually eradicated democracy. He said: “Only two weeks ago Rawlings launched a scathing attack on Kwame Nkrumah, he even justified the illegal overthrow. For two former presidents of the NDC and NPP to be united in attacking Kwame Nkrumah is indicative of the neo-colonial country that Ghana is. “What is interesting, however, is that nobody speaks for Kwame Nkrumah, even in death, he speaks for himself.
