A former presidential aspirant of the Convention People’s Party (CPP), Prof Agyeman Badu Akosa, has called on Nkrumaists and CPP members to consider joining the National Democratic Congress (NDC).
According to him, it is currently the only major political party closest to the Nkrumaist tradition.
Speaking in an interview with Talking Africa, Prof. Akosa lamented the lack of impact by Nkrumaists in Ghanaian politics.

To justify his stance, he went on: “I am saying, look, fortunately or unfortunately, Rawlings who, I believe, created the divide, having overthrown Limann’s government and being the maker of the National Democratic Congress(NDC) is no more. Hilla Limann is no more. All the icons of the Nkrumaist [tradition] are no more.
The NDC today is the closest to an Nkrumaist tradition. Why don’t we support it to succeed?”
To further buttress his point, Prof Akosa talked about the last eight years of the previous NPP government.
