The service is aimed at projecting the ideals and legacy that the two powerful leaders of Africa upheld in order to liberate the African continent from the claws of the western world.
The event which is under the theme “Honouring and Continuing the Legacy of Kwame Nkrumah and Muammar Al-Gaddafi” is to educate Africans about the significance in protecting the resources in Africa and kicking against the influence of the western countries.
The Head of Pan-African Improvement Organization, Sekou Mwanza Nkrumah, explained that the coalition has over the years been fighting against the dominance of the western countries over Africa, therefore, empowering people to defend the ideals of the leaders in Africa.
Touting the Libya’s Godfather, Brother Leader Muammar Al-Gaddafi, as one of the leaders who stood for African unity, he said it is about time people stand against imperialist doctrines and western dominion.
He slammed the United States of America stressing their aid to Africa is geared towards exploiting Africa and its resources. He said USA and the Nato Forces’ role in ousting Gaddafi was implicitly to exploit the oil in Libya but not to serve the interest of the Libyan people.
He attributed Africa’s poverty to the western indoctrination and dominance over the natural resources in Africa.
Speaking in an interview with X fm, Sekou Nkrumah expounded that Muammar Gaddafi shared similar aspirations with Dr. Kwame Nkrumah with their focus on African unity, hence, the need for the memorial service.
He urged Ghanaians to rally behind the coalition to become a formidable force against the exploitation from western forces.
The coalition is making efforts to contact the family of Muammar Al-Gaddafi.
