A biography of Kwame Nkrumah

“If we do not formulate plans for unity and take active steps to form political union, we will soon be fighting and warring among ourselves, with imperialists and colonialists standing behind the screen and pulling vicious wires, to make us cut each other’s throats for the sake of their diabolical purposes in Africa... I can see no security for African states unless African leaders like ourselves have realized beyond all doubt that salvation for Africa lies in unity.” KWAME NKRUMAH Casablanca, 7 January 1961
