@realafricastories: In 1957, Fathia Rizk left Egypt to marry Kwame Nkrumah, the man who led Ghana to independence. Her mother opposed the marriage, and the couple barely spoke a common language. But Fathia became one of Ghana’s most recognisable First Ladies, embraced Ghanaian culture and survived the military coup of 1966. From Cairo to Accra, her remarkable life tells a lesser-known story of African history, Pan-Africanism, love, identity and political exile. Did you know the story of Fathia Nkrumah? #RealAfricaStories #FathiaNkrumah #KwameNkrumah #GhanaHistory #AfricanHistory
