Kwame Nkrumah was a Ghanaian politician, political theorist, and revolutionary who served as Prime Minister and President of Ghana. He played a crucial role in Ghana’s independence from British colonial rule and was a leading advocate of Pan-Africanism. Nkrumah’s administration prioritized socialism and nationalism, initiating various national industrial and educational projects. However, his government turned more authoritarian over time, culminating in a CIA-supported coup that led to his ousting. Following his removal from power, Nkrumah lived in Guinea, where he remained involved in political activities.
