State three reasons that led to the formation of the National Liberation Movement (NLM) to compete with Nkrumah’s Convention People’s party in 1954.
Answer:
-Nkrumah preferred a unitary government but the NLM leaders wanted a federal system.
-Nkrumah's ideas were considered too radical unlike those of the conservative traditional leaders.
-Nkrumah came from a small ethnic community in southern Ghana and the NLM leaders who were mainly Ashanti were uncomfortable with him.
