  • Political Apparatchiks and Governance in Ghana
    Afro Asian Journal of Social Sciences Volume 2, No. 2.1 Quarter I 2011 ISSN: 2229 - 5313 POLITICAL APPARATCHIKS AND GOVERNANCE IN GHANA Ransford E Gyampo (Lecturer, Dept. of Political Science, University of Ghana) Abstract Political apparatchiks play a major role in ensuring the electoral victory of their respective political parties. They are also expected to strive hard to keep their parties in power to ensure that they deliver on their promises to make the life of the ordinary citizenry more comfortable and decent. However, their activities sometimes pose a severe challenge to governance. Using Ghana’s Fourth Republic as a cases study, this paper discusses the evolution and role of political apparatchiks and the challenges their activities pose to governance in Ghana. Introduction The Provisional National Defense Council (PNDC), which overthrew the constitutionally elected government of Dr. Hilla Limann on 31st December 1981, started the process designed to return Ghana to constitutional rule and usher in the Fourth Republic. Indeed, this marked the third such transition from de facto military to de jure government in Ghana’s relatively short post-colonial history. In 1969, the National Liberation Council (NLC), which, on February 24, 1966, had overthrown the government of the First Republic led by Dr. Kwame Nkrumah and the Convention People’s Party (CPP), handed over power to the constitutionally elected Progress Party (PP) government, led by Dr. Kofi Abrefa Busia. In 1979, the Armed Forces Revolutionary Council (AFRC), led by former President J.J. Rawlings turned over power to the constitutionally elected government of Dr. Hilla Limann and the Peoples’ National Party (PNP), completing a transition began in 1977 under the Supreme Military Council I & II regimes of Generals Acheampong and Akuffo (Shillington, 1992).

  • K a Busia on Ethnicity, Religion and Nationality
    1 K A Busia on ethnicity, religion and nationality Sara Fretheim Introduction Kofi Abrefa Busia, born in 1913, is a significant Ghanaian who may not be very familiar to some, though his contributions are indeed noteworthy. His life and scholarship reveal some interesting points for us about Christian faith, culture, ethnicity, nationalism and politics. Busia was a Ghanaian statesman, an outstanding scholar, and a committed Christian. He is remembered primarily for his contributions as an eminent sociologist; indeed, his doctoral dissertation of 1951, entitled The Position of the Chief in the Modern Political System of Ashanti remains an important reference work. Politically, he was the leader of the parliamentary opposition against Kwame Nkrumah in Ghana from 1956–1959; and from 1969–1972 he served as the Prime Minister of the Second Republic of Ghana. Busia is an interesting figure for us to look at for a number of reasons. Considering his context of first colonial and then newly independent Ghana, we find ourselves in the midst of a period in which diverse people were brought together and were wrestling with the establishment of a new national identity, grappling with issues of nationhood, as well as historical, ethnic, and religious identities. Kwame Nkrumah is of course the figure that stands out very clearly from that period, though in fact he and Busia were peers, born within a few years of each other. However, as we will see, Busia took quite a different approach to Nkrumah. Nkrumah is remembered for trying to establish this unified new country, arguing for an ‘African personality’ and building this new nation from a kind of vision of the “glorious past” – going so far as to rename the Gold Coast “Ghana” for the ancient empire of Ghana, located within parts of present-day Mauritania and Mali; a new name for a new nation and a new identity, as it were.

Ph.D. August 2005 Educational Studies ASANTE TRADITIONAL LEADERSHIP AND THE PROCESS OF EDUCATIONAL CHANGE (222 pp) Director of Dissertation: William Stephen Howard, Ph.D. Abstract This study lies at the intersection of contemporary research on leadership and concerns for the performance of recent African leaders and theme of participation. It utilizes qualitative approaches to examine the issue of leadership and stakeholder participation in the role of Asante traditional leadership and the process of educational change in Ghana during the last quarter of the twentieth and the beginning of the twenty- first centuries and the representations that such participation holds for the rest of the country and Africa in the quest for relevant education systems, leadership functions and expectations of stakeholders. The call of the Asantehene (King of Asante), Otumfuo Osei Tutu II at his installation that improved and quality formal education should be a criterion of assessment for his reign; the subsequent establishment of the Otumfuo Education Fund and Offinsoman Education Trust Fund provided the background to formulate the study.
