DICTATOR ORDERS CUBAN EMBASSY CLOSED
. Lieut. Gen. Joseph A. Ankrah,- who. ousted Kwame Nkrumah from power in a military coup d'état last February, ordered the immediate closure of the Cuban embassy in Accra September 27. Ankrah claimed that the Cuban government was helping to train 2,000 guerrillas in Cuba and Guinea in a project to restore President Nkrumah to office. Ankrah's move, however, appeared not unrelated to his bid for U.S. “economic. and financial backing. Having won guarantees from him on foreign investments and profits, the imperialists are putting the squeeze on for political concessions. By bowing to State Department pressure and cutting off relations with Cuba, Ankrah further whittles down the political independence of Ghana achieved under Nkrumah.
