Panel 54 Podcast - Pres. John Kufuor, Pt 1

In this special two-part, on-location interview, Waweru Njoroge sits down in Accra, Ghana with His Excellency John Agyekum Kufuor, former President of the Republic of Ghana and one of Africa’s most respected statesmen.

Part One traces his journey from Kumasi’s royal roots to Oxford’s law halls, to Ghana’s presidency and beyond. We explore the early life that shaped “The Gentle Giant,” his role in guiding Ghana through democratic transition, and his candid views on Generation Z, Pan-Africanism, and Africa’s place on the world stage.

From Accra to the African Union, from the law courts of London to the heart of Ghana’s democracy , this is a rare conversation with a leader whose quiet strength shaped a nation.

Lagos to Lamu. Cape Town to Cairo. This is Panel 54 , a global perspective through an African lens.

Hosted by Waweru Njoroge , a seasoned Kenyan journalist, media disruptor and strategist and Ndu Okoh, a fearless cultural critic, media maven and journalist , taking you beyond the headlines into the heart of Africa’s most urgent conversations.
