December 1958.

Footage of the first All African Peoples Conference held in Accra, Ghana. The conference was attended by over 300 delegates from 28 African countries and colonies. It lasted from December 8th to 13th.

Dr. Nkrumah said that all African countries must unite in the face of their enemies. He asserted that they would adopt or adapt methods used by other countries if they are suitable, otherwise they would be rejected. When warning that the dangers of colonialism and imperialism may approach in different guises, he advised Africans to be alert. He stated that it was the decade of African independence and that after that was completed, it would be time for a United States of Africa.

Note:

Interesting article from a Kenyan media portal about the relationship between Kwame Nkrumah and Tom Mboya which was initially very strong before it broke down.
