Kuri uyu wa Mbere taliki 07, Ukuboza, 2020 nibwo abaturage barenga miliyoni 17 bo muri Ghana bazindukiye mu matora y’Abadepite n’ay’Umukuru w’Igihugu.
Abagabo babiri bayahanganiyemo kurusha abandi ni usanzwe ayobora Ghana witwa Nana Akuffo Ado na John Drahamani Mahama yasimbuye ku butegetsi.
Aba bagabo baherutse kumvikana ndetse babishyira no mu masezerano ko ibizava mu matora byose buri ruhande ruzabyemera ku nyungu z’abaturage. Ibi ni ibintu bitaba ahandi muri Afurika.
Kuva iki gihugu cyabona ubwigenge nta na rimwe kigeze kivugwamo guhirikwa k’ubutegetsi cyangwa ngo hagire n’ababitegura bipfube.
Hari ibintu bituma Ghana iba igihugu kihariye:
Reka duhere ku mateka ya kera yayo:
Repubulika ya Ghana iri ahahoze ubwami bwa Ashanti, ubu bubaka bwari ubwoko bwategetse imyaka 300 ahari ubutaka bwa Ghana muri iki gihe.
Ubukungu bw’Ubwami bwa Ashanti bwari bushingiye cyane cyane kuri zahabu.
Ubwami bwa Ashanti bwari bukomeye k’uburyo bwahanganye n’ingabo z’Abongereza zashakaga kubwigarurira zibanza kubanesha mu ntambara ebyiri muri enye barwanye.
Izi ntambara zarwanywe mu mpeza z’Ikinyejana cya 18, ubwo Abakoloni bashakaga kwigabanya ibihugu by’Afurika yo munsi y’Ubutayu bwa Sahara.
Kubera ko ingabo za Ghana zari zikomeye kandi zifite abaturage bazishyigikiye kandi bunze ubumwe, zahanganye n’ingabo z’Abongereza biratinda ndetse ziza no kwica umwe mu bagaba bazo witwaga Charles McCarthy zimuca umutwe zirawutwara.
Igikanka cye nicyo umwami wa Ashanti yanyweragamo inzoga kugeza byibura muri 1824.
Umwami wa Ashanti witwaga Osei Tutu(1695-1717) yaje kwagura ubwami bwe afata igice kinini cy’ibihugu bimukikije kugeza ageze no mu kigobe cya Guinea gukora ku Nyanja y’Atlantica.
Ubwami bwa Ashanti bwatangaje Abazungu cyane cyane Abongereza k’uburyo abanyamateka babo nta bundi bwami bwo munsi y’Ubutayu bwa Sahara bigeze bandikaho ibitabo byinshi nk’Ubwami bwa Ashanti bamwe bita Asante.
Kubera ibigwi by’Ubwami bwa Ashanti, n’ubu abo mu bwoko bwa Ashanti baracyategekwa n’umwami, bose hamwe bakaba barenga miliyoni eshanu.
Yageze kuba icyambu cy’abacakara…
Agace ka Ghana kitwa Cape Coast ubu kagizwe ahantu ndangamateka y’Isi kuko higeze kuba ihuriro ry’abacakara bacuruzwaga bavanywe mu bice by’Afurika yo mu nsi y’Ubutayu bwa Sahara.
Abacakara bakusanyirizwaga muri kariya gace kugira ngo bagurishwe n’Abazungu barimo abanya Portugal, abo muri Espagne n’abandi.
Abenshi mu Birabura bahagurishirizwaga bajyanwaga mu mirima y’ibisheke muri America y’Amajyepfo.
Agace ka Cape Coast gaherutse gusurwa n’uwahoze ari Perezida wa USA Bwana Barrack Obama.
Kariya gace kandi ubu kazwiho kuba ahantu heza hakorerwa uburobyi bugezweho, bukurura ba mukerarugendo.
Impirimbanyi ya mbere y’Ubwigenge ya mbere muri Afurika…
Umugabo witwa Kwame Nkrumah niwe wabaye uwa mbere wahagurutse asaba abaturage be guhagurukana nawe bagaharanira ubwigenge bwabo bari baratswe n’Abongereza.
Umuhati wabo waje kubyara umusaruro muri 1957 ubwo bahabwaga ubwigenge.
Nkurumah amaze kurangiza manda ze yasimbuwe na Jerry Rawlings wabaye Perezida avuye mu ngabo zirwanira mu kirere, icyo gihe hari muri 1979. Aherutse gutabaruka.
N’ubwo muri 1981 yakoze ikintu bamwe bafashe nka coup d’état, Rawlings yashyizeho Itegeko nshinga n’ubu rigikurikizwa kandi ritarakorerwa ubugororangingo ubwo aribwo bwose.
Hari abavuga ko Itegeko Nshinga rya Ghana rihamye k’uburyo ari icyitegererezo cya Demukarasi irambye muri Afurika.
Ghana ishimirwa ko ifite urwego rw’ubucamanza rwigenga ku buryo busesuye.
Ubukungu bwa Ghana bwihagazeho…
