THE ANSWER IS BELOW.....

In February 1951, voters in the British colony of the Gold Coast1 went to the polls in the country’s first general election and a majority of them voted for the Convention People’s Party.2 This political party was to rule Ghana without interruption for 15 years, until its removal by a military coup d’état in February 1966. Although colonial rule ended in March 1957, a sequence of constitutional reforms from 1951 until independence ensured that the country’s elected governments were to enjoy greater and greater powers.3 Following their success at the next scheduled general election of 1954, the Convention People’s Party (CPP) evolved to become the government of a virtually self-governing state, and at independence,4 took over the reins of a sovereign state.5 The Party renewed its mandate in what most observers regarded as a less than fairly conducted plebiscite in 1960 that inaugurated the country’s first republic and consequently conferred the presidency upon the Prime Minister and the Party’s most significant political figure, Dr. Kwame Nkrumah.

Answer 2

Here is ur answer:

General elections were held in the Gold Coast on 8 February 1951. Although elections had been held for the Legislative Council since 1925, the Council did not have complete control over the legislation, and the voting franchise was limited to residents of urban areas meeting property requirements and the councils of chiefs. The 1951 elections were the first in Africa to be held under universal suffrage.
