Congress of British West Africa
Top
The National Congress of British West
Africa (NCBWA), founded in 1920, was the
earliest nationalist organization in West
Africa, and one of the earliest formal
organizations working toward African
emancipation.[1] It was largely composed of
an educated elite in the Gold Coast, who felt
under threat from the incorporation of
'traditional authorities' in the colonial
system.[2]
The cofounders included Thomas Hutton-
Mills, Sr., the first President, and J. E. Casely
Hayford, the first Vice-President. Other co-
founders and early officials included Edward
Francis Small, F. V. Nanka-Bruce, A. B.
Quartey-Papafio, H. van Hien, A. Sawyerr and
Kobina Sekyi.

The four British colonies in West Africa were Gambia, the Gold Coast, Sierra Leone, and Nigeria. In 1912 Casley Hayford and Dr. Akiwande Savage conceived the idea of aUnited British West Africa, and in 1919 they founded the National Congress of British West Africa (NCBWA). That year there were strikes by dockers in Lagos and by railway workers in Sierra Leone and Nigeria. The Gold Coast Independent called Marcus Garvey’s Back-to-Africa movement a “great Negro awakening” and connected it to the NCBWA, which had its first conference at Accra in March 1920 with delegates from the four colonies, which each formed branches. In order to provide a connection between the NCBWA and the West Indian and American Pan-African movement, Ladipo Solanke and Herbert Bankole-Bright founded the West African Students’ Union(WASU) based in London in 1925. In 1927 Solanke published his United West Africa at the Bar of the Family of Nations to promote universal suffrage. In 1929 Solanke went to West Africa and spent three years there raising money for a hostel and founding branches of the WASU. When its president Casely Hayford died in 1930, the NCBWA faded away.
