Ghanaian Independence Day | Lord Kitchenener Performs Celebratory Calypso "Ghana" (1957)

On 6 March 1957, Ghana gained independence from British colonial rule. That day in London, ITN's Lynne Reid Banks interviewed Trinidadian Calypsonian Lord Kitchener (aka Aldwyn Roberts, or "Kitsch") about the meaning of Ghanaian independence. Kitchener then proceeded to perform "Ghana", a Calypso song he had written to celebrate the historic occasion, paying tribute to the first Prime Minister of Ghana, Kwame Nkrumah.
