Professor Francis Nkrumah (89), the son of Ghana’s first president, Dr. Kwame Nkrumah, is dead. Professor Nkrumah is reported to have died on Sunday, June 30, 2024.

He was Dr. Kwame Nkrumah’s first born child. He dated Ms. Fanny Miller, who came from Elmina in the central region.

Dr. Kwame Nkrumah is said to have met Miss Miller when he was teaching at the Catholic Church middle school in a town called Amisano adjacent to Elmina.

They maintained a relationship and Miss Miller received Professor Nkrumah before Dr. Kwame Nkrumah left Ghana to study at Lincoln University in the United Kingdom.

As Dr. Kwame Nkrumah returned, the child (Professor Francis Nkrumah) who had managed to get into St. Augustine’s College had performed remarkably well in the O Levels.

Meanwhile, Nkrumah had become head of government affairs in 1952 and was living with Francis in his Accra New Town Residence. Finally, Francis Nkrumah received a Cocobod scholarship to travel to Germany and study medicine there.

The late Professor Emeritus Francis Nkrumah, the longest-serving director of the Noguchi Memorial Institute for Medical Research (NMIMR), was praised for his role in initiatives to eradicate poliomyelitis in Africa and for the various roles he played as a founding member of the Pediatric Association of Ghana and the West African College of Physicians.

The World Health Organization (WHO) Africa Region honored Professor Francis Kwesi Nkrumah in October 2016 for his outstanding and diligent role in initiatives to eradicate poliomyelitis in Africa.

Professor Nkrumah received three awards for his service on the Africa Regional Certification Committee (ARCC), recognized by the NHO Office in Ghana, and as a one-time Chair of the Regional Task Force on Immunization (TFI).

The cause of death is initially unknown.

But Indian author and editor Vijay Prashad announced his death in a post on X on Sunday, June 30, 2024.

The editor of Inkani Books, publisher of the latest edition of “The Revolutionary Thoughts of Kwame Nkrumah”, quoted a foreword written by Dr. Francis Nkrumah, in which he praised his father, saying: “I currently feel that Africa continues to exist.” Miss (Kwame Nkrumah), unless we go back and consider what Nkrumah actually did meant for Ghana and Africa.”

Guinness World Records has looked into the claims of Ghanaian chef Ebenezer Smith, who claims to have broken the record for the longest cooking marathon by an individual.

Chef Smith made the announcement during a press conference at La Hotel on July 2, 2024 and presented a certificate as proof of his achievement.

Chef Smith even went so far as to submit a certificate to defend his claim of breaking the longest cooking marathon by an individual. Watch the video below

During the press conference announcing the alleged success, he stated.

“I am deeply humbled and honored to announce that I am now the new world record holder in the cooking competition,” he said.

The inscription on his certificate reads: “The longest cooking marathon (individual) lasts 802 hours and 25 minutes and was completed by Ebenezer Smith (Ghanaian) at Spintex, Accra, Ghana. From February 1st to March 6th, 2024.”

In an official reply email from GHone TV, Guinness World Records refuted the claim and confirmed that the record holder for the longest cooking marathon was Alan Fisher from Ireland, who achieved a time of 119 hours, 57 minutes and 16 seconds in Matsue Shimane, Japan from September 28th to October 3rd, 2023.

The reason for this investigation was doubts about the authenticity of Chef Smith’s certificate and the unavailability of entries in the Guinness Book of Records confirming his alleged achievement.

An additional update from TV3 Ghana on Guinness World Records confirms that the information is incorrect as they contacted Guinness World Records directly through the X account.

Another update from Guinness World Records shows that the cooking marathon record is no longer valid.

GWR has deactivated a number of records for various reasons, for example the fastest violinist record was removed in 2017 due to difficulties in assessing the quality of performances.

According to a report by Asase Fm, Ghanaian Chef Ebenezer Smith has been arrested by the Ghana Police and is currently being held at the La Police Station in Accra.

The details of his arrest are not yet clear, but it comes shortly after Chef Smith announced his recognition from the Guinness Book of World Records for setting the record time in a cooking marathon.

According to additional sources, it was reported that Nana Boroo brought security personnel to the conference venue due to an alleged contract dispute with Smith.

Ghana’s population is expected to reach 33,007,618 in 2024, a 1.07-fold growth compared to 2021 when it was 30,832,019.

This population increase is considered a significant milestone for the country.

According to the 2021 Population and Housing Census, Ghana’s population is 30.8 million.

Forecasts for 2050 predict that there will be a million more women than men in the country

The expected demographic change in Ghana, with one million more women than projected by 2050, will have significant impacts on various aspects of Ghanaian society, including economic development, healthcare, social structures and gender dynamics.

The statistics service predicted an annual increase of 711,706 people from 2021 to 2030 and estimated that the population will reach 37.24 million by the end of this decade.

The forecast that there will be one million more women than men in Ghana by 205 should spur policymakers, businesses and society at large to take action

By addressing the challenges and opportunities of this demographic shift, Ghana can realize its potential for positive transformation and long-term progress.

Through initiatives focused on gender equality, healthcare improvements and women’s economic empowerment, Ghana can use this projected inequality as a catalyst for sustainable development and positive change.

• Donald Trump was forced off the stage after an incident at his campaign rally on Saturday.

• Dramatic photos show Trump with blood on his face.

• Trump pumped his fist in the air as Secret Service agents took him away.

Former President Donald Trump was quickly escorted off the stage at his rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, on Saturday evening after a series of loud noises were heard.

Photos showed secret service agents rushing to Trump’s aid. Blood splatters could be seen on his face, particularly around his ear, as he was removed from the stage with his fist clenched.

A Trump spokesman thanked law enforcement and first responders for their quick response to the case.

The Secret Service confirmed that the former president is now safe and is currently undergoing a medical evaluation at a nearby facility. Further updates will be provided soon.

Reporters at the scene said there were a series of loud noises before the Secret Service intervened.

“This is an active crime scene,” Secret Service officials told reporters, ordering them to leave the area.

“We saw a lot of people fall to the ground in confusion. I heard the shots, it sounded like something between fireworks and a small caliber handgun,” said John Yeykal of Franklin, Pennsylvania, who was attending his first Trump rally.

Washington Post reporter Meryl Kornfield first reported that Butler County District Attorney Richard Goldinger said two people were dead, including a suspected shooter.

The prosecutor did not immediately respond to a call and email from Business Insider.

The attack by a gunman who law enforcement officials said was subsequently killed by the Secret Service was the first attempt to assassinate a president or presidential candidate since Ronald Reagan was shot in 1981.

It comes amid a deeply polarized political atmosphere, just four months before the presidential election and days before Trump is officially named the Republican nominee at his party’s convention.

About two hours after the shooting, President Joe Biden addressed the nation and said he was relieved that Trump was reportedly “doing well.” He said he was unable to reach Trump before his comments and promised to update the public later Saturday on whether they spoke out and provide more details about the investigation.

“We cannot allow this to happen,” Biden said. “The idea that there is such violence in America is simply unthinkable.”

Biden, who spoke without a teleprompter, said he was waiting for additional information before officially calling the attack an attempted assassination of the former president.

“I have an opinion, but I don’t have facts,” he told reporters, promising to provide updates as he learns more.

POLITICALLY FORCE AGAIN Shocks America

After the assassination of Robert F. Kennedy in California in 1968 and again in 1972, when Arthur Bremer shot and seriously injured George Wallace, who was running as an independent on a platform, the dangers of campaigning took on a new urgency compared to Trump. This led to increased protection of candidates, even as threats continued, particularly against Jesse Jackson in 1988 and Barack Obama in 2008.

Presidents have even greater layers of security, especially after the assassination of John F. Kennedy in 1963. Trump is a rarity both as a former president and as a current candidate.

On the video, Trump could be heard saying at least twice, “Let me get my shoes, let me get my shoes,” while another voice said, “I got you, sir.”

A few moments later, Trump stood up and could be seen touching his face with his right hand. There appeared to be blood on his face. He then pumped his fist in the air and appeared to say the word “fight” twice as loudly as his supporters, prompting loud cheers and then chants of “USA.” USA. USA.”
