Kwame Nkrumah (September 21, 1909 - April 27, 1972)[1] was a Ghanaian politician, political theorist, and revolutionary. He was the first Prime Minister and President of Ghana following Ghana's independence from the United Kingdom in 1957. He was an advocate of scientific socialism and pan-Africanism, formed the Convention People's Party and was a founding member of the Organization of African Unity.[1] Nkrumah also played an instrumental role in the creation of the Union of African States, which was a short-lived confederation of African states that dissolved after the overthrow of his government.[2] In 1962, Nkrumah was awarded the Lenin Peace Prize by the Soviet Union.[1]
The CIA organized a coup against Nkrumah on 24 February 1966.[3] According to a March 12, 1966 memorandum to U.S. President Johnson from U.S. security staffer Robert Komer commenting on the coup, "Nkrumah was doing more to undermine our interests than any other black African."[4]
After the coup, Nkrumah lived in exile in Conakry, Guinea; where he became Co-President of the country alongside Ahmed Sékou Touré. He passed away from cancer in 1972.[1]
