Dear Partido SocialistaUnido de Venezuela (PSUV),
Messageof Solidarity
We of the YoungNkrumaist Movement (YNM), Youth wing of Convention People's Party,write to express our solidarity during this important moment inVenezuela’s history. It is our hope and expectation that, PSUV andYNM can foment strong relationship to support all progressivestruggles and movements in Africa, South America and around theworld.
The Convention People'sParty is the party formed by Dr Kwame Nkrumah and led Ghana toIndependence in 1957.
The world knows that you are achievingsomething remarkable in Venezuela: you are investing your country’svast oil wealth in ways that benefit everyone, not just a smallminority of well-connected elites. Over the years, your government’sliteracy campaign programs have taught millions of Venezuelans toread. And today, millions of others are benefiting from thegovernment’s investment in job training, small businesses, supportfor trade union and health care, which YNM and CPP aim to emulatewhen in Government.
As an oppositionparty in Ghana, we are committed to doing what we can, to encourageGhanaians and Africans to see Venezuela not only as a model democracybut also as a model of how a country’s resources can be used tobenefit its entire people.
I have enclosed our websites forinformation on our party (http://www.conventionpeoplesparty.org)and (www.cppuk.org).
Please note, I am alsocopying the "Hands of Venezuela" movement whichintroduced PSUV to us.
Yours InComradeship,
Kwame Nkrumah Agyapong
Chairman
Young NkrumaistMovement (YNM)
