Selected Speeches of Kwame Nkrumah Vol. 1

Samuel Obeng decided to compile some of Dr. Kwame Nkrumah's speeches when in August, 1971, an Act 380 came into effect in an apparent attempt to suppress the ideas of Dr. Nkrumah. When the above-mentioned Act was repealed by NRCD of February 9, 1972, he sought for and gained written permission to publish 'Selected Speeches of Kwame Nkrumah'. 1.
