The country that championed decolonization in Africa was

A.

Nigeria

B.

South Africa

C.

Ghana

D.

Kenya

Correct answer is C

The decolonisation 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.
