16 T&E CABGUNSA* RALEIGH, N. C., SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 17. 1968 Kwame Nkrumah: Magazine Tells Mmh On Ghanian Like a beautiful butterfly that reverses nature and metamor phoses irst > a caterpillar, Kwame Nkrumah - “His Mes sianic Dedication,” “The Na tional Fount of Honour,” Ghana’s “Shovboy” and "Afri ca's Guiding Ligl\t” -- is now just a man despised, says the current issue of EBONY Maga zine in a close-up on-the-scene appraisal by its Paris editor, Charles L. Sanders. Citizens of Ghana now parade with signs reading, “Kwame Nkrumah Must Be Hanged'” and “Kwame Nkrumah--A fric a ’ s Number One Traitor!” and “Kwame Nkrumah's a Bastard Child!” On many Sunday nights at eight o’clock any Ghanaian who wants to listen can hear another of the three-hour “fatherly chats” Nkrumah has beamed southward over Radio Guinea's “Voice of the African Revolu tion” several times a month since the coup. From his re fuge in Guinea farther up the African coast, Nkrumah has, as “Osagyefo, your Constitu tional President,” imposed a dusk-to-dawn curfew in Accra. He has, as “your Commander in-Chief,’ ordered the Army to return to its bai racks and the National Police Corps back to routine beats. And he has, as “one who will return to you very soon” urged Ghana’s 7 1/2 mil lion people to revolt against the National Liberation Council the eight- man Army-Police Junta that now rules the country by decree. “There is, of course,” San ders reports, “no curfew In Ac cra. High Life dancers still crowd the barn-like Lido Club; the Beachcomber lounge con tinues to serve its highly-priced badly-cooked 'authentic Poly nesia! cuisine,’ and the well known little pimp with Ashanti tribal marks or his face who hangs around the Ambassador Hotel parking lot still appears every night, grins very stupid ly, and offers 'm\ nice sister for your pleasure, please.’ The Army still has anti-aircraft batteries at ail airports and the National Police still maintains checkpoints on all major t oads —in case Nkrumah tries to keej' his shortwave promise to “return to you '.cry soon.” Ghanaians' only “disorders” have been the endless burials and burnings of etfig.s of the man who persists in his broad casting. Rag dummies have shown Nkrumah nudr and the crowds have in turn spat on these svmbols of then former “Messiah,” '.eaten them with sticks and fists, mocked their ingeniously construct d geni tals, then poured or keiosene and set them ablaze.
