A LIGHT, A MAN, KWAME NKRUMAH

Once upon a recent time not long ago A beacon shone, its brilliance aglow. With a vision as vast as the starry sky This light embodied, Kwame Nkrumah, our pride. Dreaming to free Africa from colonial shackles His resolve unwavering, his spirit remains. Pan-Africanism his guiding light Igniting flames of hope, burning ever bright. In his wake, empires crumble and fall His voice a rallying cry, heard by all. "Forward ever, backward never!" he proclaimed A legacy etched, his memory untamed.
