The country that championed decolonization in Africa was?

A. Nigeria
B. South Africa
C. Ghana
D. Kenya

Correct Answer:

Option C – Ghana

Explanation

The decolonization of Africa took place in the mid-to-late 1950s and 1960s, with sudden and radical regime changes on the continent as colonial governments made the transition to independent states; this was often quite unorganized and marred with violence and political turmoil.

On 6 March 1957, Ghana (formerly the Gold Coast) became the first sub-Saharan African country to gain its independence from European colonization.
