This man is my hero. I loved his book "Africa Betrayed" so much. Thank God so much for Dr. Ayittey.

Rest in power prof. Your legacy will live forever

I agree with Dr. Ayittey. The African Leaders have dealt with their people shamefully. Borrowing billions, getting millions in donations and the people have been left with crumbs off the table. Very sad and tragic. Bless you Doctor.

Legend. I hope that your voice shall resound in the African soul until we are truly free.

Africa needs to free the markets and open borders

I would love to read this mans biography. He would have a great story.

Thanks for the inspiration sir

It was hard for me to understand that communist-socialism in terms of a controlled economy became the fashion in post-colonial Africa. I do think his ideas in the book _Defeating Dictators_ seem to be the way to go forward. For instance "intellectual freedom" as the first step seems to be the basis for undermining the regimes and getting the ball rolling and keeping reform rolling.

Has he had any medical issues?

He was a purpet and still of the west his roll was to cause confusion amongst African people against their leaders including nkwame nkuruma.
