did nationalism have communist ideology elements once again?
was it more like a peoples movement or did some great leader personalities organise the movement? I mean, one doesn't exclude the other but... you get it

because Ghana was a british colony I would suppose WWII was significant as a catalyst which allowed independence to be less violent maybe (similarly to India where apart from Gandhi's non violent ideology, the fact that the British army was exhausted after the two world wars and the fact that the US had become even more powerful and thus its pro-decolonisation policies allowed for the colonisers to leave the colonies without wars.

Being colonised often results in most of the wealth of the country to be taken away from it by their colonisers, resulting in them having less resources to make use of, and thus a smaller market to help them finance their independence?

Colonisers keeping the education level low

# data[].attributes.body
It often is the case that the colonisers purposefully keep the colonised uneducated in order to better control them. Less education often results in worse leadership, lowering the chances of an independence movement succeeding, and maybe causing a vicious circle of sorts, keeping the colonisers in power.

# data[].attributes.body
Because of Ghana's colonial background it is safe to assume that over the decades of British rule no infrastructural development, aside from that necessary to service the needs of colonization and resource extraction, occurred.

European interference in the affairs
of what was to become Ghana stretches back into the centuries starting with the Portuguese in the 15th century and ending with the British in the 20th. This resulted in European empires meddling with the ethnic and religious makeup of the region while also drawing borders that often disregarded historic rivalries and aggressive tensions between certain groups.

Colonialism increases inequality between the colony and the colonizer. Independence aims to achieve equality, and equality is given by socialism of communism in theory. This is way most independence movements had socialist of communist ideas
