Kwame Nkrumah and Fathia Nkrumah

Dr Sekou Nkrumah, one of the sons of Dr Kwame Nkrumah, has revealed his mother, Fathia had a difficult marriage.

According to him, it was not because his dad, Dr Nkrumah was a womaniser but it was due to his busy schedule.

He explained a big age difference between them was another factor that accounted for the difficulty.

“There was also a big difference of age between them! Nkrumah’s official birth is 1909, while that of Fathia is 1935!,” he wrote.

He said this in a Facebook post as he reacts to Emma Florence Yaa Adinyira Amedahe’s interview on the relationship that existed between the couple.
