A daughter of Dr Kofi Abrefa Busia, Nana Frema Busia, has described President Akufo-Addo as being ungrateful to her father who handed over presidency to Edward Akufo-Addo on a “silver platter” to ensure peace in the country.

According to her, Akufo-Addo, was perpetuating an unjust betrayal on Dr Busia, which was worse than what he accuses Dr Nkrumah of and thereby breeding disunity and insecurity in the country.

She believes Akufo-Addo was using his position as President of Ghana to resurrect JB Danquah, who failed to become the President of Ghana, thereby ignoring Dr Busia who won the 1969 election convincingly and became the Prime Minister.

In a long letter to the President, Nana Frema Busia indicated that the descendants of Dr JB Danquah who are ruling the country deem Dr Kwame Nkrumah’s presidency and place in Ghanaian and African history as 'unacceptable usurpation'.

“This is primarily why you wish to impose Dr Danquah on the University of Ghana as though the university and its Council do not know their own history! Dr Danquah is to compete favourably as juxtaposed to Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology [KNUST].

Honestly, Mr President, your Politics seem driven by a vendetta to redress the political whirlwind of Dr Kwame Nkrumah's perceived 'Overthrow ' of Dr J.B. Danquah who was the heir apparent to the political kingdom from colonial rule, before an 'insurrection' so to speak,” excerpts from the letter read.

Oye Arikanki, who wrote the article, stated that unlike Ghana where Dr Bawumia served as head of the Economic Management Team, Nigeria had no one serving in such a position.
