March 1959 - All Africa Met Here - Big names arrive: The All Africa Peoples Conference begins in Accra. The chairman of the talks, Tom Mboya, the young Kenyan leader (left) arrives with Ghana's Minister of External affairs, Kojo Botsio, the Ghanaian Premier Dr Nkrumah and JK Tettegah and GK, the joint organisers of the conference (left). All Africa is waking up, growing up, joining up. We have arrived at one of the great turning points in history. And in this tremendous continental movement, it is West Africa that is giving the lead, setting the pace. The Accra talks were one more strong step on the road to a free and united Africa.
