Hence, it will be difficult to gain your undivided  attention also because I may not match the many fine calligraphies put together by nationalists for your read. However, I write as a grandson  who now leads your students. Kindly spare me 2 minutes of your reading  time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Kwame, I extend my warm greetings from the 32<sup>nd<\/sup> Gamer  Abdul Nasser Road specifically the new cement structure located few  meters from the main building you left behind (now the Administration  block). A place where there seem to be a beautiful euphoria and  patriotic gossips about how exciting you would be in your grave should  you read this letter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As a great grandson, I think our list of invitations to this event \nwouldn\u2019t be complete without a special hand extended to you in the \ngrave. This is not to undermine the potency of the wall gecko and its \nancestral sprits that patrol my office every day eaves-dropping on \nconversations and arrangements pertaining to the celebrations. I am sure\n you might have heard from them already that the celebration is due \nOctober, the same month your vision was manifested into a physical \nedifice. So beyond this invitation, I shall use this opportunity to also\n ask for a favour from you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One of your sons, Ibrahim Mohammed Awal who has risen to the office \nof the Business and Development Minister under the present government \nled by another grandson, Akufo Addo is expected to grace the launch of \nthis pomp on March 1. I ask that you grant him the wisdom of a political\n farther to contribute meaningfully to a multimillion-dollar fund to be \nestablished to herald the development of our school<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes Kwame, the generations that came after you saw the need to shape \nyour ideological and emancipation motives for establishing the school \nfrom being a mouthpiece of the government; to a more professional \ninstitution who churn out fine journalists and public relations \npractitioners on whose shoulders the warlords of our nation go to wage \nbattle in every sector of the palace, be it anti-corruption, journalism,\n leadership among others. Today, the entire nation celebrates with us \nbecause as you envisaged that our beloved country could not have made \nsuch momentous strides without this building put up in 1959.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The fund is therefore to aid expand the capacity and infrastructure  of the institute. The endowment fund shall be committed towards the  building of an ultra modern digital media hub. In this facility will be a  well-equipped studio , an e-library and high tech audio-visual centre.  We seek your blessings on this fund; and a touch of your hands in order  for donors to come to our aid. History has it that, you did it with the  Akosombo dam. Do it with this fund also!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It has become more pressing due to that fact that our sixty years of \npromoting communication excellence in Ghana after being used as a tool \nfor independence hasn\u2019t been celebrated enough. Indeed, you conceded in \nmany of your speeches whilst alive that the media remains a pivotal tool\n for the success of Ghana; the story hasn\u2019t changed; even more has been \nthe urgent need for more freedom of the media to harness our full \npotentials as a people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But Kwame, we are set to meet up in a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.aptnewsghana.com\/index.php\/2019\/01\/14\/govt-to-merge-gij-nafti-and-gil-in-order-to-obtain-university-license\/\">\u2018consolidation ceremony\u2019 with  two like-minded institutions \u2013 the Ghana Institute of Languages (GIL)\u00a0  and National Institute of Film and Television hopefully by end of this  year<\/a>. And as steps towards this, a new draft act and statutes will be  produced to accommodate all three bodies. This is expected to usher us  into the promise land you foretold of us located at North Dzorwulu. My  leadership may not benefit from this new street liaised with loamy soil  but I am excited to have witnessed and taken part in its fruition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Political Father, I don\u2019t know how you might take this, but these \nchanges would also reflect in a new name to be conferred on us. Whether \nthe Accra Metropolitan University; University of Journalism, Social \nScience and Technology or the P.V Ansah University, I am not certain yet\n ; but one thing is for sure- &nbsp;it wouldn\u2019t bear your name.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I hope I am not leaving anything out but I am sure your ears and eyes  continue to be with us and to monitor our strides as the founder of  this great land. Least I forget the one overseeing all these massive  transformation is another patriotic son, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.aptnewsghana.com\/index.php\/2019\/02\/05\/gij-and-population-council-to-develop-population-reporting-course\/\">Professor Kwamena Kwansah Aidoo  who took over barely six months ago<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You must be proud of us sixty years on. We have practically dominated  in all sectors and even extended our influence off the shore of the  country. Our products continue to identify the under-privileged and  sectors with lesser attention to raise concerns at the corridors of  decision-makers. For those who decided to pursue to eradicate corruption  are doing well and every now and then exposing the dark sides of  society for retrospection. Whilst we enjoy the praises of our incredible  role in Ghana\u2019s democracy, we are meek to also say mo ni yor to you in  your grave.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now to my request Osagyego. Leadership among students has contributed\n significantly to this jubilee success. All student leaders who have \ncome before me did their best to ensure stability, accountability and \ninterest of students. My tenure has not been anything different. My \nprayer is your spirit guides us and mentors us. Let us conceive some of \nyour giant leadership vision. And to all old students who were leaders, \ncontinue to provide visionary company even as you touch their hearts to \nreturn home to build an alma mater.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In one accord, we sing the lyrics of our anthem that reminds us of \nthe passion and responsibility bestowed on us by our society. In unison \nwe respond to the call to serve our societies and our nations. \nCelebrating our past, inspiring our future!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Your legacy lives on Kwame; GIJ is 60!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yours Faithfully,<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Emmanuel Kumah<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A great grandson<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(GIJ SRC President)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>Dear Kwame Nkrumah, As custom demands, let me first show my gratitude on behalf of the student body for the good memories and legacies you <a class=\"mh-excerpt-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.aptnewsghana.com\/index.php\/2019\/02\/26\/gij-at-60-dear-kwame-nkrumah-your-vision-is-60\/\" title=\"GIJ at 60: Dear Kwame Nkrumah, your vision is 60\">[&#8230;]<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2870,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[6],"tags":[124],"class_list":["post-2868","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news-from-ghana-western-region","tag-ghana-institute-of-journalism"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.6 -
