Thank you so much for showing this great mausoleum to people like myself outside of Ghana. My wife and I visited the the Ghana way back in 1994 when there was only the statute of Nkrumah in the area. I'm so happy that Nkrumah is being honored in this way as the father of Pan-Africanism and the first president. I read and studied Nkrumah's books as college student while also a member of the A-APRP. I hope to return to Ghana one day and see how much more the country has grown.
Ghana must sort out its sanitation, the plastic, the litter on the ground etc, they also must clean the beaches. This must be done not because of tourism but because Ghanaians like to live in clean places and if Ghana likes to live in a clean environment then it will also benefit tourism.
Please go see the The independence square as well, it has no bathrooms. The walls are falling apart. The landscaping need to be maintained. These things are the national monuments, pride of our nation. We don’t have to wait until an embarrassing moment before we fix these eye sores.
Bravoooo to all the brains behind what we are seeing and to me like this I will always choose a night site visit over a daytime to this beautiful place engulfed with much historical...so am humbly appealing to the management team to run 24/7 working hours for us and again also I suggest you go by E-Cash system of payment instead and that's, coming out with a unique card that should be sold out to all those who want to visit there at the banks, malls, and the security post right in front of the museum that we loaded some amount of money on it just like the Ez card where it would be swiping on...at the entrance, the boom payment is made and goes directly into the account. The monies shouldn't directly hit the hands of...cos I know my people la😂😂😂😂
You just gained a subscriber, Bro. I have really enjoyed your thorough walk-through interview. I am very proud to see this edifice and just can't wait to experience it in-person very soon. Well done and great job to all the People involved😊
Excellent work done by the government . The deputy minister stated a price of 50 cedis for tickets, but he failed to notice the minimum wage is 600 cedis per month. We should make it affordable for all Ghanaians hence it should be 10 cedis irrespective of your origin.
Massa minimum wage is not 600. Anyone collecting 600 is a lazy person. If you are working and collecting 600 a month, stop working. Indomie sellers kraa are making 100+ a day in profit 😅
Thank you very much for this interesting video! Please, may I ask you: Did you see anything concerning the German-Ghanaian philosopher Anton Wilhelm Amo (about 1700 - after 1753). Nkrumah appreciated him very much - as we can read in his "Autobiography" (1957: 183-185).
The ticketing price should remain the same for everyone. Whether foreign or local. Don't bring foolishness into this edifice . One price for everyone and should also be affordable for ordinary citizens. 5gh or 10gh should do it. Or 10gh for kids and 20gh for adults. Period! Remember, this should be affordable for every citizen. Please involve Samia Nkrumah in the day today administration
umm, all countries charge more for tourists. Stop feeling sorry and guilty and do what you should do- charge them 50 while the students in Ghana should be FREE. Black ppl must stop feeling guilty and start being business people, smart business people. For your people, it should not cost anything to pay respects to their former president. For tourists, they should pay for the privilege to visit the park.
I don't agree foreigners pay more to visit places like this in other countries. I have been to a few museums in the US and nobody asked whether I was a citizen or not.
A foreigner bought a plane ✈️ ticket over $1200, staying at a hotel minimum $60 a night and you want to argue about $5 to $10 to see a museum 😂….pls stay home at the hotel. Enjoy the air condition and dstv 😆
I think Dankwa and Paa Grant are OK but Busia, I will say no. All the problems Ghana went through after the 1966 coup was the making of Busia. He came in as a enemy to Nkurumah. With his advice he directed NLC to sell almost all the factories, destroyed and banned everything about Nkurumah. Later deported all the foreigners especially Africans from Ghana in 1969. Destroyed free education from primary school to university ,brought tribalism and nepotism, started sacking people in state corporations who do not agree with him. Sally of GNTC was an example. Threatening judges who don't agree with him when he said "if judges want to play politics, he is ready to take them on".
We gained a quasi political independence only. Absolutely no economic independence, which is more important. Only the politicians enjoy their economic independence through looting the country's treasury and common wealth. Look, all the economic benchmarks and developmental aspirations mentioned in Nkrumah's speeches and statements have never been met. Not only that, Ghana is worse off than the period of immediate post independence. The irony of the country having to depend on loans or grants from a neo colonial institution , World Bank, to finance this project. Wisdom has always eluded our leaders. This is complete failure on all fronts, and I dare to conclude that independence was a reckless adventure.
I love the Architech expressions.

This look so much different than it did when I visited in 2019. Kudos to the president!
Nana Addo mo , you've done a good job....unless you don't know history of Dr Kwame Nkrumah.
Ghana must sort out its sanitation, the plastic, the litter on the ground etc, they also must clean the beaches. This must be done not because of tourism but because Ghanaians like to live in clean places and if Ghana likes to live in a clean environment then it will also benefit tourism.
Wonderful work done by the Nana Addo government.
I pray and hope it will be maintained properly to keep the place viable for more tourists attractions
Lovely,,very young man who did this great job..welldone son.❤
It's beautiful, I have been to it 3 times before the renovation.
This is really amazing! I'm excited to see this. Kudos to the Architect and the team members as well!
Brilliant job by the architects
Good to see that such an important project was designed and constructed with local knowledge and labour.
Yes honoring our heroes at this trying moment is very welcome indeed. Brings a lot of hope back.
This is amazing, thank you Mr President 🙏
The Dubious Center face lift is long overdue.
Please go see the The independence square as well, it has no bathrooms. The walls are falling apart. The landscaping need to be maintained. These things are the national monuments, pride of our nation. We don’t have to wait until an embarrassing moment before we fix these eye sores.
I have enjoyed the experience from my screen. I will be there in-person soon.😅 Thanks, Ben and team.
Bro why your full name is making me emotional, no offense you share the same name with my late big brother whom we lost this year February

@@Ahoto_papa_biare you ok?
@@georgeblayackah9825 how about you? Are you okay?
Not true
I am desiring to see, if there are any Nkrumah pics at Achimota, which House was he in say this to all OAA as well!
Great work

Awesome
The national cathedral has more facilities than what we're seeing now once complete and will bring a billion of tourists annually.
It is a waste of resources, especially these times.
Kwame Nkrumah is like a god to Kwesi Pratt but I haven't heard from you yet. Is it because the one who did this is not your favorite president?
Probably so 😅
That place was sooo embarrassing. Long overdue
How and why does any decent minded Ghanaian vote for NDC to obstruct Ghana's forward movement to progress and prosperity?
I think it should be 10gh to attract a lots of people to visit a day

Why do you comments foolishly?just give your opinion without foolishly commenting
About fvcking time yall put some respect on Nkrumah's name. 😍😍
The person that took the head and kept it was a woman. Her name must be mentioned in the story!!!!
God bless Nana Akuffu Addo, if not him who else.
Is Dr Don' Arthur alive? and did he talk to him before the rehabilitation?
266th subscriber 😊
Which part of Accra is the memorial situated.
And how much is the ticket per person
Near Holy Child High school or opposite Supreme court
It’s at ashiaman and the price is 15 ghc
Opposite the Supreme Court. Adult GHc25. Kids GHc15. Foreigners GHc100
Ghana should have done it ALONE
Tell us how much income tax you pay to Ghana government every year 😂
So what happened to Nkrumah's head!!!

You earn more so pay more. tight fisted meani. You don't want to contribute to black

We want J B Dankwa and Busia , also museum. Paa Grant also to remembered otherwise we won't rest .
Go bed!

Governor Gordon Guggisburg will also need his own 😂
And your own else we won't rest or?

Your comment is needless
@@oppongkwadwokyekyeku5707 Of course, that comment will appear needless to a thoughtless person. The irony, your comment is the real needless one.
What about value for money, no one is talking about that.
Go and watch your gyimifuo kelvin Taylor. He will talk about that 😂
What are you talking about the value for money, damn if you do damn if you don't .
